Roles of Irisin in the Linkage from Muscle to Bone During Mechanical Unloading in Mice
2018
Overview
Mechanical unloading induces disuse muscle atrophy and bone loss, but the details in mechanism involved in those pathophysiological conditions are not fully understood. Interaction between muscle and bone has been recently noted. Here, we investigated the roles of humoral factors linking muscle to bone during mechanical unloading using mice with hindlimb unloading (HU) and sciatic neurectomy (SNX). HU and SNX reduced muscle volume surrounding the tibia, tissue weights of soleus and gastrocnemius muscle, and trabecular bone mineral density (BMD) in the tibia of mice. Among humoral factors linking muscle to bone, HU and SNX reduced fibronectin type III domain-containing 5 (FNDC5) mRNA levels in the soleus muscle of mice. Simple regression analysis revealed that FNDC5 mRNA levels in the soleus muscle were positively related to trabecular BMD in the tibia of control and HU mice as well as sham and SNX mice. Moreover, FNDC5 mRNA levels were negatively correlated with receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) mRNA levels in the tibia of control and HU mice. Irisin, a product of FNDC5, suppressed osteoclast formation from mouse bone marrow cells and RANKL mRNA levels in primary osteoblasts. FNDC5 mRNA levels elevated by fluid shear stress were antagonized by bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling inhibitors in myoblastic C2C12 cells. In conclusion, the present study first showed that mechanical unloading reduces irisin expression in the skeletal muscle of mice presumably through BMP and PI3K pathways. Irisin might be involved in muscle/bone relationships regulated by mechanical stress in mice.
