Reduced Expression of Septin7 Hinders Skeletal Muscle Regeneration

Septins are considered the fourth component of the cytoskeleton with the septin7 isoform playing a critical role in the formation of diffusion barriers in phospholipid bilayers and intra- and extracellular scaffolds.

description Septins are considered the fourth component of the cytoskeleton with the septin7 isoform playing a critical role in the formation of diffusion barriers in phospholipid bilayers and intra- and extracellular scaffolds. While its importance has already been confirmed in different intracellular processes, very little is known about its role in skeletal muscle. Muscle regeneration was studied in a <i>Sept7</i> conditional knock-down mouse model to prove the possible role of septin7 in this process. Sterile inflammation in skeletal muscle was induced which was followed by regeneration resulting in the upregulation of septin7 expression. Partial knock-down of <i>Sept7</i> resulted in an increased number of inflammatory cells and myofibers containing central nuclei. Taken together, our data suggest that partial knock-down of <i>Sept7</i> hinders the kinetics of muscle regeneration, indicating its crucial role in skeletal muscle functions.
