Definitions

  • the present invention relates to methods for promoting muscle regeneration in a subject, and to such methods employing nutritional compositions.
  • Skeletal muscle (also referred to herein simply as “muscle”) is a highly dynamic and adaptive tissue and is implicated in multiple mechanical, physiological and metabolomic processes including movement, metabolism and homeostasis. Skeletal muscle is composed of large, multinucleated cells called myofibers. Adult skeletal muscle fiber number is set in-utero and adult fibers are terminally differentiated, i.e. , are incapable of division. Despite these phenomena, adult skeletal muscle is highly adaptable, responding to the soluble and biophysical cues that it encounters on a daily basis, referred to as skeletal muscle plasticity. [0003] It is important to increase muscle mass, not only for athletes but also for many other people.
  • muscle mass in the elderly it may be desirable to increase muscle mass in the elderly, as aging can reduce muscle mass, in individuals who suffer chronic diseases which result in muscle wasting, for example, myopathies, obesity, diabetes, cancer, cachexia, and viral infections, or those undergoing therapies for a disease such as chemotherapy, and in immobilized individuals, for example, those experiencing hospitalization, bed rest, or broken limbs.
  • Anaerobic exercise such as resistance training, is one of the most effective strategies to promote muscle hypertrophy, i.e., an increase in muscle mass and volume involving an increase in muscle fiber cross-sectional area. It is widely accepted that the main mechanism for inducing muscle hypertrophy by exercise training is to increase muscle protein synthesis in muscle fibers. Evidence also supports the involvement of muscle satellite cells in the process of training-induced muscle hypertrophy. Muscle satellite cells, located between the basal lamina and sarcolemma of the muscle, are precursor cells with the potential to differentiate into mature muscle cells. These myogenic progenitor cells are normally in a quiescent state, although once stimulated, they become “activated” for the generation of new muscle fiber cells. Activated satellite cells proliferate and then differentiate into newly formed or nascent myotubes to become fully mature and functional myofibers, ultimately regenerating muscle tissue.
  • Muscle damage is known to be a potent stimulator of satellite cells, inducing them to convert from the quiescent sate to the activated state.
  • Muscle damage in the form of microtrauma is present in numerous physiological conditions such as exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), which is frequently observed following physical activity and/or strenuous exercise and especially when eccentric contractions are incorporated in exercise.
  • EIMD exercise-induced muscle damage
  • catabolic and muscle wasting chronic conditions as noted previously result in a chronic state of muscle microtrauma.
  • muscle regeneration is one of the most important homeostatic processes of adult tissue and, as such, must be finely regulated to guarantee functional recovery and to avoid muscle alteration and diseases.
  • the impairment of skeletal muscle regenerative potential characterizes a suite of physiopathologic conditions severely affecting human health.
  • HMB Beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate
  • flavonoids present in different plants, for example, quercetin (present in red wine, onions, green tea, kale, apples, and berries) and resveratrol (present in grapes, blueberries, raspberries, mulberries, and peanuts), act on protein catabolism and muscle function, mainly through their antioxidant and antiinflammatory properties. Notwithstanding these known effects of HMB and the indicated flavonoids, a need exists for conveniently providing improvements in promoting muscle regeneration.
  • the invention is directed to methods for promoting muscle regeneration in a subject.
  • the methods comprise administering beta-hydroxy betamethylbutyrate (HMB) and at least one citrus flavonoid to the subject.
  • HMB beta-hydroxy betamethylbutyrate

  • the method of the present invention is based on upon discovery that the combination of HMB and citrus flavonoids shows a synergetic effect on enhancing both muscle cell differentiation and maturation in a preclinical model. Both mechanisms promote muscle regeneration capacity in those situations where it can be compromised.

  • the present example evaluated the effect of HMB, a flavonoid-containing citrus extract (orange peel extract, OPE), hesperidin and hesperetin, each individually, and the effect of combinations of HMB with each of the citrus extract, hesperidin, and hesperetin, respectively, on protein synthesis and on myogenesis.
  • OPE range peel extract
  • the protein concentration of the supernatants was measured using a bicinchoninic acid method (Bio-Rad, Madrid, Spain). Proteins (40 pg) were separated by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes, and immunoblotted with specific antibodies; the immunoblots were developed by an enhanced chemiluminescence detection method. Antibodies against non-phosphorylated kinase (GAPDH) was used as load control. [00054] The effects of the different ingredients on the L6.C11 rat skeletal muscle myoblast cell differentiation, using creatine kinase (CK) as a biochemical marker, are shown in Figs. 1-3.
  • Figs. 1-3 show that cell incubation with each of HMB, OPE, hesperidin, and hesperetin provided significant increases in muscle cell differentiation as measured by CK expression and compared with the control.
  • Fig. 1 shows the combination of HMB and OPE did not show a significant increase as compared with OPE alone, while Figs. 2 and 3 show that, surprisingly, the combination of HMB with hesperidin and hesperetin, respectively, synergistically increased the CK expression as compared with the control and as compared with each component individually.
  • a comparison of Figs. 2 and 3 with Fig. 1 may indicate that amount of citrus flavonoid in OPE was not sufficient, in combination with HMB, to provide the synergistic effect exhibited by the combinations of HMB and hesperidin, and HMB and hesperetin.
  • the L6.C11 rat skeletal muscle myoblast line was grown in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DM EM) supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal calf serum (FCS), 2 mM glutamine, 100 units/mL penicillin, and 0.1 mg/mL streptomycin and was maintained at subconfluent densities.
  • DM EM Modified Eagle’s Medium
  • FCS fetal calf serum
  • streptomycin fetal calf serum
  • the myoblasts reached about 80% confluency, they were differentiated into myotubes by exchanging the growth medium with a differentiation medium comprising DMEM supplemented with 2% (v/v) FCS for 5-6 days.
  • myotubes were incubated with HMB (12.5 pM) and with the different citrus flavonoid sources: citrus flavanol extract (OPE, 25 pg/mL), hesperidin (10 pM), or hesperetin (1 pM), each individually, and each in combination with HMB. Myotubes were also incubated without any additive to serve as a control.
  • OPE citrus flavanol extract
  • hesperidin 10 pM
  • hesperetin (1 pM
  • Protein synthesis was measured as a marker of myotubes maturation/ hypertrophy according to the method described by Gulve et al, Biochemistry Journal, 2Q0.377 (1989) with the following modifications: the L6.C11 cells were plated on 48-well tissue culture plates, differentiated for 5 days, and then starve treated with the different effectors for 2 h in media with 10% FCS and 0.8 mM tyrosine. Cells were then spiked with 1 pCi/mL of L-[ring-3,5-3H]-tyrosine and incubated for 1 h. The reaction was stopped by placing the plates on ice.
  • Fig. 4 shows the effect of HMB, OPE, and a combination of HMB and OPE on protein synthesis. While HMB alone provided an increase in protein synthesis (about 23% as compared with the control), OPE alone did not provide any significant effect on protein synthesis. On the other hand, the combination of HMB and OPE surprisingly increased protein synthesis by about 45% as compared with the control.
  • Fig. 5 shows that while hesperidin alone provided a modest increase in protein synthesis (about 16% as compared with the control), the combination of HMB and hesperidin surprisingly increased protein synthesis by about 48% as compared with the control. Finally, Fig. 6 shows that hesperetin alone did not provide any significant effect on protein synthesis, but the combination of HMB and hesperetin surprisingly increased protein synthesis by about 43% as compared with the control.
