Male Wistar rats (7-week-old) were randomly assigned to control and heat-stressed groups. Rats in heat-stressed group were exposed to heat stress (42°C for 60 min) in an incubator without anesthesia. Soleus muscles were dissected and weighted 1, 3, and 7 days after the heat exposure. Significant increases in the wet weight and protein content of soleus were observed 7 days following the exposure (p < 0.05). Heat stress also induced the up-regulation of heat shock protein 72 (HSP72), IκBα (inhibitor of NF-κB) and the increase in the relative population of Pax7-positive satellite cells to total muscle nuclei before the increase in muscle mass. The content levels of phospho-NF-κB and TNFα were significantly decreased 1 and 3 days after heat stress, respectively (p < 0.05). A negative correlation between HSP72 and phospho-NF-κB contents was observed 1 day after the heat exposure. These observations suggest that the decrease in NF-κB signaling may play a part of a role in heat stress-associated muscle hypertrophy., 名古屋大学博士学位論文 学位の種類:博士(リハビリテーション療法学) (課程) 学位授与年月日:平成23年3月25日}, school = {名古屋大学, NAGOYA University}, title = {A possible role of NF-κB and HSP72 in skeletal muscle hypertrophy induced by heat stress}, year = {2011} }
