Efeitos da L-glutamina sobre a atividade das vias de sinalização da síntese e degradação de proteínas no músculo esquelético de camundongos e no conteúdo intracelular de aminoácidos em miotubos cultivados. / Effects of L-gultamine on the signaling pathways of protein synthesis and degradation in skeletal muscle and intracellular free aminoacids contente in cultured miotubes.

Vasconcelos, Diogo Antonio Alves de 21 May 2015 (has links)
Investigou-se os efeitos da L-glutamina (1g/kg de massa corpórea) em camundongos jejuados por 24 horas. A L-glutamina atenuou a perda de massa muscular e a diminuição da área das fibras musculares esqueléticas causadas pelo jejum via Akt-mTOR. No sóleo, a L-glutamina estimulou a Akt (início da via), e no EDL ativou a S6 (final da via). Investigou-se também os efeitos da L-glutamina em miotubos (C2C12) cultivados por 48 horas. A diminuição de L-glutamina no meio (de 2 para zero mM) causou balanço proteico negativo e aumento do conteúdo dos aminoácidos livres, exceto dos produtos da glutaminólise, indicando estimulação de proteólise. O aumento de L-glutamina no meio (de 2 para 8 e 16 mM) não alterou o conteúdo intracelular de proteínas e dos aminoácidos livres. Na presença de 2 mM de glutamina no meio, a insulina teve efeito positivo no balanço proteico via Akt/mTOR/S6K, estimulando a S6K. Na ausência de glutamina, houve maior fosforilação de eIF2α estimulada por dexametasona e portanto menor síntese proteica. / We investigated the effects of L-glutamine (1g/kg of body mass) on 24 h fasted mice. L-Glutamine attenuated the loss of muscle mass and the reduction of the skeletal muscle fibers area caused by fasting. This attenuation occurred via Akt-mTOR, however, glutamine stimulated Akt (upstream) in the soleus, whereas it activated S6 (dowstream) in EDL. The effects of L-glutamine on myotubes (C2C12) cultured for 48 hours were also examined. The reduction of L-glutamine in the medium (from 2 to zero mM) decreased protein content and increased contents of all amino acids, except products of glutaminolysis, indicating stimulation of proteolysis. The increased L-glutamine levels in the medium (from 2 to 8 and 16 mM) did not change the intracellular contents of protein and free amino acids. In the presence of 2 mM glutamine, insulin had a positive effect on total protein content through Akt/mTOR/S6K pathway, stimulating S6K. In turn, in the absence of L-glutamine, there was increased eIF2α phosphorylation stimulated by dexamethasone and thus less protein synthesis.
