Characterisation of sestrin proteins in aged skeletal muscle by Jiani Qian

“…Specifically, we aimed to (i) determine how sestrins respond to cellular stresses in skeletal muscle cells, (ii) explore the sestrin content in human skeletal muscle tissue of young and older individuals, and determine the impact of chronic exercise on their content, (iii) investigate how sestrin protein levels change in primary human skeletal muscle cells during myogenesis, and the impact of ageing on this, and (iv) determine if sestrin 2 is required for amino acid-induced mTORC1 activation in skeletal muscle.In Chapter 3, C2C12 myotubes were exposed to three chemically induced stresses that are known to occur in ageing and age-related diseases; oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress induced by tunicamycin and inflammation induced by the addition of Lipopolysaccharide (LPS). …”
