RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Handelin is a bioactive compound from Chrysanthemum indicum L. that improves motor function and muscle integrity during aging in Caenorhabditis elegans. This study aimed to further evaluate the protective effects and molecular mechanisms of handelin in a mouse muscle atrophy model induced by cachexia and aging. METHODS: A tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced atrophy model was used to examine handelin activity in cultured C2C12 myotubes in vitro. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated 8-week-old model mice and 23-month-old (aged) mice were used to examine the therapeutic effects of handelin on cachexia- and aging-induced muscle atrophy, respectively, in vivo. Protein and mRNA expressions were analysed by Western blotting, ELISA and quantitative PCR, respectively. Skeletal muscle mass was measured by histological analysis. RESULTS: Handelin treatment resulted in an upregulation of protein levels of early (MyoD and myogenin) and late (myosin heavy chain, MyHC) differentiation markers in C2C12 myotubes (P < 0.05), and enhanced mitochondrial respiratory (P < 0.05). In TNF-α-induced myotube atrophy model, handelin maintained MyHC protein levels, increased insulin-like growth factor (Igf1) mRNA expression and phosphorylated protein kinase B protein levels (P < 0.05). Handelin also reduced atrogin-1 expression, inhibited nuclear factor-κB activation and reduced mRNA levels of interleukin (Il)6, Il1b and chemokine ligand 1 (Cxcl1) (P < 0.05). In LPS-treated mice, handelin increased body weight (P < 0.05), the weight (P < 0.01) and cross-sectional area (CSA) of the soleus muscle (P < 0.0001) and improved motor function (P < 0.05). In aged mice, handelin slightly increased the weight of the tibialis anterior muscle (P = 0.06) and CSA of the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius muscles (P < 0.0001). In the tibialis anterior muscle of aged mice, handelin upregulated mRNA levels of Igf1 (P < 0.01), anti-inflammatory cytokine Il10 (P < 0.01), mitochondrial biogenesis genes (P < 0.05) and antioxidant-related enzymes (P < 0.05) and strengthened Sod and Cat enzyme activity (P < 0.05). Handelin also reduced lipid peroxidation and protein carbonylation, downregulated mRNA levels of Fbxo32, Mstn, Cxcl1, Il1b and Tnf (P < 0.05), and decreased IL-1ß levels in serum (P < 0.05). Knockdown of Hsp70 or using an Hsp70 inhibitor abolished the ameliorating effects of handelin on myotube atrophy. CONCLUSIONS: Handelin ameliorated cachexia- and aging-induced skeletal muscle atrophy in vitro and in vivo, by maintaining homeostasis of protein synthesis and degradation, possibly by inhibiting inflammation. Handelin is a potentially promising drug candidate for the treatment of muscle wasting.
