Mitochondrial adaptations in skeletal muscle cells in mammals exposed to gravitational unloading. | LitMetric

It is known that exposure to actual or simulated weightlessness is often accompanied by decreased muscle dynamic performance, and increased level of blood lactate accumulation. Decreased mitochondrial content found in fibers of the working muscles is considered to be one of the possible causes for those changes. Studies on oxidative potential of the muscle cell (i.e. capacity of the cell to oxidative energy production) under conditions of altered gravity have been carried out since late 70-ties. It was shown that the relatively short term spaceflight and hindlimb suspension induced significant decrease oxidative enzyme activities and mitochondrial volume density in rat fast muscle. However postural soleus muscle failed to exhibit similar changes, although the absolute mitochondrial content was found to be sufficiently lower after exposure to simulated microgravity. This phenomenon allowed to conclude that the pronounced soleus fiber atrophy masked the proportional absolute decrease in oxidative potential which failed to be revealed as subsequent changes in mitochondrial volume density and oxidative enzyme activity. It is also important, that biosatellite studies exposed considerable changes in mitochondria distribution pattern inside m. soleus fibers: volume density of mitochondria (and, correspondingly, activity of oxidative enzymes) increases (or does not change) in the center of fiber, and decreases at its periphery, in subsarcolemmal area. However the time course of mitochondrial alterations development (particularly during long-duration exposures to real or simulated microgravity) and some peculiarities of the mitochondria distribution were not described yet. Also, materials dealing with simultaneous time-course comparative analysis of mitochondrial characteristics and indices of physiological cost of submaximal exercise are very rare. The present paper is purposed to compare the data, obtained in several experimental studies, allowed to analyze the possible contribution of muscle mitochondria changes to changes in metabolic cost of submaximal exercise and the time-course dynamics of mitochondrial characteristics under conditions of actual or simulated gravitational unloading.
