The Impact of Shiftwork on Skeletal Muscle Health

Abstract: (1) Background: About one in four workers undertake shift rosters that fall outside the traditional 7 a.m.–6 p.m. scheduling. Shiftwork alters workers’ exposure to natural and artificial light, sleep patterns, and feeding patterns. When compared to the rest of the working population, shiftworkers are at a greater risk of developing metabolic impairments over time. One fundamental component of metabolic health is skeletal muscle, the largest organ in the body. However, cause-and-effect relationships between shi… Show more

“…The present study provides further evidence that varying stimulation is important for skeletal muscle adaptation, as also suggested by human-based studies on interval training (31). Additionally, studies designed to understand muscle responses to various training modalities and to explore underlying mechanisms and influencing variables may assist in optimizing exercise interventions in humans for different outcomes in different settings (32,33).…”

“…Populationbased studies report that the risk of developing these conditions is 15-30% higher in individuals who regularly experience sleep deprivation, sleep restriction, and inverted sleep-wake cycles (25,29,45). To this end, a growing body of evidence suggests that a lack of sleep may directly affect muscle protein metabolism (1,30,37). Rodent studies first demonstrated a possible causal link between complete sleep deprivation and disrupted muscle protein metabolism.…”

“…This may represent a potential model of sleep extension in the laboratory animal, which will open up the prospect of studies on the benefits of adding sleep as a prophylactic tool to limit deleterious consequences of sleep loss on health and tissue repair (Axelsson & Vyazovskiy, ). As an example, SD has been evidenced to impair skeletal muscle health (for review, see Aisbett, Condo, Zacharewicz, & Lamon, ), and there is a need to propose an integrated strategy to improve sleep in critical care units (Friese, ).…”
