Mechanisms of glucocorticoid-induced myopathy
Open accessAbstract
Glucocorticoid-induced muscle atrophy is characterized by fast-twitch or type II muscle fiber atrophy illustrated by decreased fiber cross-sectional area and reduced myofibrillar protein content. Muscle proteolysis, in particular through the ubiquitin– proteasome system (UPS), is considered to play a major role in the catabolic action of glucocorticoids. The stimulation by glucocorticoids of the UPS is mediated through the increased expression of several atrogenes (‘genes involved in atrophy’), such as atrogin-1 and MuRF-1, two ubiquitin ligases involved in the targeting of protein to be degraded by the proteasome machinery. Glucocorticoids also exert an anti-anabolic action by blunting muscle protein synthesis. These changes in protein turnover may result from changes in the production of two growth factors which control muscle mass, namely IGF-I and myostatin respectively anabolic and catabolic toward the skeletal muscle. The decreased production of IGF-I as well as the increased production of myostatin have been both demonstrated to contribute to the muscle atrophy caused by glucocorticoids. At the molecular level, IGF-I antagonizes the catabolic action of glucocorticoids by inhibiting, through the PI3-kinase/Akt pathway, the activity of the transcription factor FOXO, a major switch for the stimulation of several atrogenes. These recent progress in the understanding of the glucocorticoid-induced muscle atrophy should allow to define new therapies aiming to minimize this myopathy. Promising new therapeutic approaches for treating glucocorticoid-induced muscle atrophy are also presented in this review.

From Low-dose glucocorticoid treatment affects multiple aspects of intermediary metabolism in healthy humans: a randomised controlled trial (2011) · cites this paper as [43]
The Catabolic action of glucocorticoids section says glucocorticoids stimulate expression of atrogin-1 and MuRF-1, ubiquitin ligases involved in muscle protein degradation. The FOXO section describes this as part of a transcriptional program mediated by FOXO; it does not establish that glucocorticoids directly activate the two proteins.

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.
