Abstrakt: Resistance training results in skeletal muscle hypertrophy, but the molecular signalling mechanisms responsible for this altered phenotype are incompletely understood. We used a resistance training (RT) protocol consisting of three sessions [day 1 (d1), day 3 (d3), day 5 (d5)] separated by 48 h recovery (squat exercise, 4 sets x 10 repetitions, 3 min recovery) to determine early signalling responses to RT in rodent skeletal muscle. Six animals per group were killed 3 h after each resistance training session and 24 and 48 h after the last training session (d5). There was a robust increase in TNFalpha protein expression, and IKK(Ser180/181) and p38MAPK(Thr180/Tyr182) phosphorylation on d1 (P < 0.05), which abated with subsequent RT, returning to control levels by d5 for TNFalpha and IKK(Ser180/181). There was a trend for a decrease in MuRF-1 protein expression, 48 h following d5 of training (P = 0.08). Notably, muscle myofibrillar protein concentration was elevated compared to control 24 and 48 h following RT (P < 0.05). Akt(Ser473) and mTOR(Ser2448) phosphorylation were unchanged throughout RT. Phosphorylation of p70S6k(Thr389) increased 3 h post-exercise on d1, d3 and d5 (P < 0.05), whilst phosphorylation of S6(Ser235/236) increased on d1 and d3 (P < 0.05). Our results show a rapid attenuation of inflammatory signalling with repeated bouts of resistance exercise, concomitant with summation in translation initiation signalling in skeletal muscle. Indeed, the cumulative effect of these signalling events was associated with myofibrillar protein accretion, which likely contributes to the early adaptations in response to resistance training overload in the skeletal muscle.
