TLDR
Findings indicate that a long‐term HFD, but not a short‐termHFD, impairs contractile force in fast‐twitch muscle fibers.Abstract:
In this study, we investigated the effects of a short‐term and long‐term high‐fat diet (HFD) on morphological and functional features of fast‐twitch skeletal muscle. Male C57BL/6J mice were fed a HFD (60% fat) for 4 weeks (4‐week HFD) or 12 weeks (12‐week HFD). Subsequently, the fast‐twitch extensor digitorum longus muscle was isolated, and the composition of muscle fiber type, expression levels of proteins involved in muscle contraction, and force production on electrical stimulation were analyzed. The 12‐week HFD, but not the 4‐week HFD, resulted in a decreased muscle tetanic force on 100 Hz stimulation compared with control (5.1 ± 1.4 N/g in the 12‐week HFD vs. 7.5 ± 1.7 N/g in the control group; P < 0.05), whereas muscle weight and cross‐sectional area were not altered after both HFD protocols. Morphological analysis indicated that the percentage of type IIx myosin heavy chain fibers, mitochondrial oxidative enzyme activity, and intramyocellular lipid levels increased in the 12‐week HFD group, but not in the 4‐week HFD group, compared with controls ( P < 0.05). No changes in the expression levels of calcium handling‐related proteins and myofibrillar proteins (myosin heavy chain and actin) were detected in the HFD models, whereas fast‐troponin T‐protein expression was decreased in the 12‐week HFD group, but not in the 4‐week HFD group ( P < 0.05). These findings indicate that a long‐term HFD, but not a short‐term HFD, impairs contractile force in fast‐twitch muscle fibers. Given that skeletal muscle strength largely depends on muscle fiber type, the impaired muscle contractile force by a HFD might result from morphological changes of fiber type composition.read more

TL;DR: Diet lipid content is crucial to maintain or improve muscle function during resistance training, observing that the CrM supplementation up-regulated IGF-1 and phospho-AKT protein levels, suggesting an activation of the IGF1-PI3K-Akt/PKB-mTOR pathway.

TL;DR: Age-related physiological changes in cellularity, secretory profiles, and inflammatory status of adipose tissue which drive lipotoxicity (spillover) of skeletal muscle are reviewed and evidence of how this may affect specific fiber type contractility is provided.

TL;DR: The fiber population of skeletal muscles encompasses a continuum of pure and hybrid fiber types, and under certain conditions, changes can be induced in MHC isoform expression heading in the direction of either fast‐to‐slow or slow‐ to‐fast.
