Abstract

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> microRNAs regulate a myriad of physiological processes, including skeletal muscle regeneration and homeostasis. During ageing, changes in muscle fibre microenvironment contribute to the capability of satellite cells to regenerate the muscle in response to injury and loading stressors. In this study, we isolated murine satellite cells and primary myogenic progenitors from mice and humans to demonstrate that the microRNA miR-24-3p and its target peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6) play an important role in muscle regeneration during ageing, regulating satellite cell viability and their differentiation potential. Our results show upregulation of miR-24 during early stages of muscle regeneration in vivo in adult mice, suggesting a potential role of miR-24 at the early stages of muscle injury. On contrary, miR-24 was downregulated during regeneration of muscle of old mice. miR-24 was also downregulated, whereas its target gene Prdx6 was upregulated, in satellite cells isolated from old mice. miR-24 consistently regulated viability and myogenic potential of myogenic progenitors from both humans and old mice, suggesting that changes in miR-24 levels during ageing may contribute to defective early stages of muscle regeneration during ageing through affecting satellite cell viability and myogenic potential. This regulation likely occurs via miR-24 counteracting the generation of reactive oxygen species through Prdx6 de-repression in primary myogenic progenitors isolated from humans and old mice. We propose that downregulation of miR-24 in muscle of old mice following injury may be a protective mechanism against elevated ROS levels to maintain satellite cell viability and myogenic potential, acting through Prdx6 upregulation. However, as miR-24 is a regulator of p16 and p21, this downregulation may lead to increased satellite cell senescence, therefore representing an age-related failed compensatory mechanism.
