Bioenergetic basis of skeletal muscle fatigue.

Published: August 2019

Energetic demand from high-intensity exercise can easily exceed ATP synthesis rates of mitochondria leading to a reliance on anaerobic metabolism. The reliance on anaerobic metabolism results in the accumulation of intracellular metabolites, namely inorganic phosphate (P) and hydrogen (H), that are closely associated with exercise-induced reductions in power. Cellular and molecular studies have revealed several steps where these metabolites impair contractile function demonstrating a causal role in fatigue. Elevated P or H directly inhibits force and power of the cross-bridge and decreases myofibrillar Ca sensitivity, whereas P also inhibits Ca release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). When both metabolites are elevated, they act synergistically to cause marked reductions in power, indicating that fatigue during high-intensity exercise has a bioenergetic basis.

Arch Pharm (Weinheim)

Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis, Faculty of Pharmacy, Charles University, Hradec Králové, Czech Republic.

The Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5), also known as GPBAR1 (G protein-coupled bile acid receptor), is a membrane-type bile acid receptor that regulates blood glucose levels and energy expenditure. These essential functions make TGR5 a promising target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and metabolic disorders. Currently, most research on developing TGR5 agonists focuses on modifying the structure of bile acids, which are the endogenous ligands of TGR5.

Molecular basis for the enzymatic inactivity of class III glutaredoxin ROXY9 on standard glutathionylated substrates.

Department of Plant Molecular Biology and Physiology, Albrecht-von-Haller Institute for Plant Sciences, Georg-August-University Göttingen, Julia-Lermontowa-Weg 3, 37077, Göttingen, Germany.

Class I glutaredoxins (GRXs) are nearly ubiquitous proteins that catalyse the glutathione (GSH)-dependent reduction of mainly glutathionylated substrates. In land plants, a third class of GRXs has evolved (class III). Class III GRXs regulate the activity of TGA transcription factors through yet unexplored mechanisms.

Monocarboxylate transporter 4 (MCT-4) is involved in various metabolic processes which are crucial in maintaining cellular pH and energy metabolism, and thus influence the tumor microenvironment. The study is aimed to rationally design effective Small interfering RNA (siRNA) that can silence MCT-4. We utilized a comprehensive workflow integrating multiple tools such as siDirect version 2.

Ventilatory drive is modulated by a variety of neurochemical inputs that converge on spatially oriented clusters of cells within the brainstem. This regulation is required to maintain energy homeostasis and is essential to sustain life across all mammalian organisms. Therefore, the anatomical orientation of these cellular clusters during development must have a defined mechanistic basis with redundant genomic variants.

Oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis are the main ATP-generating pathways in cell metabolism. The balance between these two pathways is frequently altered to carry out cell-specific activities in response to stimuli involving activation, proliferation, or differentiation. Despite being a useful tool for researching metabolic profiles in real time in relatively small numbers of cancer cells, the main Agilent Seahorse XF Pro Analyzer (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) guideline is currently not fully detailed in the distinction between suspensions vs.
