Abstract
Skeletal muscle mass is closely related to strength and health. Multiple genes and signaling pathways are involved in the regulation of skeletal muscle hypertrophy. miR-29 can participate in various processes of skeletal muscle development through different target genes. However, studies are needed on the function of miR-29 in skeletal muscle during mouse puberty. We used mice in which overexpression of miR-29ab1 cluster could be induced specifically within skeletal muscle, and investigated the effects of miR-29 overexpression on skeletal muscle at 1 month of age. We found that the overexpression of miR-29ab1 cluster in juvenile mice caused skeletal muscle mass and myofiber cross-sectional area to increase. The study on the mechanism of miR-29 inducing skeletal muscle hypertrophy had found that miR-29 achieved its function by inhibiting the expression of Mstn. At the same time, injured myofibers were present within miR-29ab1 cluster overexpressing skeletal muscle. The damage of skeletal muscle may be due to the inhibition of the type IV collagen by miR-29. These results indicate that although the overexpression of miR-29ab1 cluster can induce skeletal muscle hypertrophy in mouse juvenile, it simultaneously causes skeletal muscle damage.
