Loss of cytoplasmic basic fibroblast growth factor from physiologically wounded myofibers of normal and dystrophic muscle

Clarke, Mark S. F., Khakee, Robert, McNeil, Paul L.·1993·Journal of Cell Science

Abstract

Using muscle as an in vivo model system, we have tested the hypothesis that basic fibroblast growth factor is released from a cytoplasmic storage site into the extracellular environment via diffusion through survivable, mechanically-induced plasma membrane disruptions. Normal and dystrophic (mdx) mouse muscle were studied. Strong immunostaining for bFGF was detected in the cytoplasm of myofibers of uninjured muscle fixed in situ by perfusion. By contrast, myofibers did not stain cytoplasmically for bFGF after suffering lethal disruptions of their plasma membranes caused by freezing and thawing followed by sectioning. Sub-lethal, transient disruptions of myofiber plasma membranes - termed plasma membrane ‘wounds’ - were shown to be induced by needle puncture or exercise of muscle. Quantitative image analysis revealed that these wounded fibers contained significantly reduced levels of bFGF. Dystrophic exercised and unexercised muscle was found to possess an ∼6-fold higher proportion of wounded myofibers than does normal muscle under equivalent conditions. Release of bFGF at a rate that is a direct function of the frequency of myofiber wounding may explain in part how a muscle adjusts its growth to meet changing mechanical demand as well as the pathological hypertrophy characteristic of certain stages of muscular dystrophy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
