Abstrakt: Key Points: A healthy mitochondrial pool is dependent on the removal of dysfunctional organelles via mitophagy, but little is known about how mitophagy is altered with ageing and chronic exercise. Chronic contractile activity (CCA) is a standardized exercise model that can elicit mitochondrial adaptations in both young and aged muscle, albeit to a lesser degree in the aged group. Assessment of mitophagy flux revealed enhanced targeting of mitochondria for degradation in aged muscle, in contrast to previous theories. Mitophagy flux was significantly reduced as an adaptation to CCA suggesting that an improvement in organelle quality reduces the need for mitochondrial turnover. CCA enhances lysosomal capacity and may ameliorate lysosomal dysfunction in aged muscle.
Abstract: Skeletal muscle exhibits deficits in mitochondrial quality with age. Central to the maintenance of a healthy mitochondrial pool is the removal of dysfunctional organelles via mitophagy. Little is known on how mitophagy is altered with ageing and chronic exercise. We assessed mitophagy flux using colchicine treatment in vivo following chronic contractile activity (CCA) of muscle in young and aged rats. CCA evoked mitochondrial biogenesis in young muscle, with an attenuated response in aged muscle. Mitophagy flux was higher in aged muscle and was correlated with the enhanced expression of mitophagy receptors and upstream transcriptional regulators. CCA decreased mitophagy flux in both age groups, suggesting an improvement in organelle quality. CCA also reduced the exaggerated expression of TFEB evident in aged muscle, which may be promoting the age-induced increase in lysosomal markers. Thus, aged muscle possesses an elevated drive for autophagy and mitophagy which may contribute to the decline in organelle content observed with age, but which may serve to maintain mitochondrial quality. CCA improves organelle integrity and reduces mitophagy, illustrating that chronic exercise is a modality to improve muscle quality in aged populations.
