Influence of acute exercise on renalase and its regulatory mechanism.

Abstract

AIMS:

Renalase expression in the kidneys and liver is regulated by nuclear factor (NF)-κB, Sp1, and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α. The dynamics of renalase expression in acute exercise, and its mechanism and physiological effects are unclear. We evaluated the effect of different exercise intensities on renalase expression and examined its mechanism and physiological effects.

MAIN METHODS:

21 male Wistar rats ran for 30 min on a treadmill after resting for 15 min. The sedentary group rested on the treadmill while the exercise group ran for 30 min at 10 or 30 m/min. Skeletal muscles, the kidney, heart, liver, and blood samples were collected after exercise. The expression of renalase and phosphate IkB-α and Akt was measured by western blotting, while HIF-1α, Sp1, MuRF-1, and MAFbx were measured in the skeletal muscle by real-time RT-PCR.

KEY FINDINGS:

Renalase expression in skeletal muscles increased after acute exercise, while its expression in the kidneys, heart, and liver decreased. NF-κB regulated renalase expression in the plantaris muscle and that of HIF-1α in the soleus muscle. Phosphate Akt in the plantaris muscle significantly increased in the 30 m/min group compared with that in the sedentary group. MuRF-1 in the plantaris did not change between these groups.

SIGNIFICANCE:

Renalase expression in skeletal muscles increased after acute exercise but decreased in other tissues. This increase may be a response to exercise-induced oxidative stress. Furthermore, NF-κB in the plantaris muscle may mainly regulate renalase expression, and support a relationship with the cell protective effects of renalase.
