Short-Term Calorie Restriction Enhances Skeletal Muscle Stem Cell Function

Abstract: SUMMARY Calorie restriction (CR) extends lifespan and ameliorates age-related pathologies in most species studied; yet the mechanisms underlying these effects remain unclear. Using mouse skeletal muscle as a model, we show that CR acts in part by enhancing the function of tissue-specific stem cells. Even short-term CR significantly enhanced stem cell availability and activity in the muscle of young and old animals, in concert with an increase in mitochondrial abundance and induction of conserved metabolic and … Show more

“…30 Multiple lines of evidence indicate that autophagy diminishes with aging, 31 premature aging correlates with autophagy inhibition, 29 while increased autophagy (as by mean of calorie restriction) delays aging and extends longevity. 32,33 Of note, the evidence that calorie restriction enhances MuSCs availability and activity 34 indicates a close relationship between autophagy, the regenerative potential of skeletal muscles, MuSCs activation 35 and self-renewal. 36 A progressive reduction of basal autophagy from young to old and geriatric MuSCs triggering numerical and functional MuSCs decline during ageing has been recently described.…”

“…Similarly, it has been shown that myogenin expression is not affected after fasting in juvenile gilthead sea bream (Garcia de la Serrana et al, 2014). In line with the lasting production of myofibres in atrophied muscle, it is interesting to note that the catabolic response induced by shortterm calorie restriction is favourable to myogenic cell activation and muscle repair in mouse (Cerletti et al, 2012). Furthermore, the induction of autophagy in muscle satellite cells is crucial to meet bioenergetic demands during the transition from quiescence to activation (Tang and Rando, 2014).…”

“…(182) Altogether, these indings provide evidence for the feasibility of targeting SIRT1 as an effective therapeutic intervention for the prevention or reversal of age-related sarcopenia and other degenerative muscle disorders. Encouraging results regarding the use of short-term calorie restriction, a dietary manipulation that increases SIRT1 activity (183), and synthetic small-molecule activators of SIRT1 (184) show muscle stem cell differentiation and improved muscle quality in laboratory animals.…”
