To characterize the regulatory pathways involved in the inhibition of cell differentiation induced by the impairment of mitochondrial activity, we investigated the relationships occurring between organelle activity and myogenesis using an avian myoblast cell line (QM7). The inhibition of mitochondrial translation by chloramphenicol led to a potent block of myoblast differentiation. Carbonyl cyanide p-(trifluoromethoxy) phenylhydrazone and oligomycin, which affect the organelle at different levels, exerted a similar influence. In addition, we provided evidence that this phenomenon was not the result of an alteration in cell viability. Conversely, overexpression of the mitochondrial T3 receptor (p43) stimulated organelle activity and strongly potentiated myoblast differentiation. The involvement of mitochondrial activity in an actual regulation of myogenesis is further supported by results demonstrating that the muscle regulatory gene myogenin, in contrast to CMD1 (chicken MyoD) and myf5, is a specific transcriptional target of mitochondrial activity. Whereas myogenin mRNA and protein levels were down-regulated by chloramphenicol treatment, they were up-regulated by p43 overexpression, in a positive relationship with the expression level of the transgene. We also found that myogenin or CMD1 overexpression in chloramphenicol-treated myoblasts did not restore differentiation, thus indicating that an alteration in mitochondrial activity interferes with the ability of myogenic factors to induce terminal differentiation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008931 Mitochondria, Muscle Mitochondria of skeletal and smooth muscle. It does not include myocardial mitochondria for which MITOCHONDRIA, HEART is available. Sarcosomes,Mitochondrion, Muscle,Muscle Mitochondria,Muscle Mitochondrion,Sarcosome
D010444 Peptide Elongation Factor Tu A protein found in bacteria and eukaryotic mitochondria which delivers aminoacyl-tRNA's to the A site of the ribosome. The aminoacyl-tRNA is first bound to a complex of elongation factor Tu containing a molecule of bound GTP. The resulting complex is then bound to the 70S initiation complex. Simultaneously the GTP is hydrolyzed and a Tu-GDP complex is released from the 70S ribosome. The Tu-GTP complex is regenerated from the Tu-GDP complex by the Ts elongation factor and GTP.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
D002701 Chloramphenicol An antibiotic first isolated from cultures of Streptomyces venequelae in 1947 but now produced synthetically. It has a relatively simple structure and was the first broad-spectrum antibiotic to be discovered. It acts by interfering with bacterial protein synthesis and is mainly bacteriostatic.
