The present invention relates to a composition for preventing or treating muscle diseases comprising Sargassum serratifolium extracts.
The skeletal muscle is the largest metabolic organ, which accounts for about 40% to 50% of the body weight, and is a protein reservoir, which controls physical movement, and also maintains various physical functions such as energy consumption, respiration, glucose, lipids, and amino acid homeostasis control. The skeletal muscle amount is a factor that determines muscle strength, muscle endurance strength, and physical performance ability, and when the muscle skeletal mass, size, and strength are excessively lost, skeletal muscle weakness and atrophy are induced. Among them, the skeletal muscle is the largest organization in our body, which accounts for about 40% to 50% of the body weight of normal individuals, and is responsible for essential functions such as exercise, respiration, and heartbeats (Int J Biochem Cell Biol 37:1985-1996, 2005; Pharmacol Rev 61:373-393, 2009; Calcif Tissue Int 96:183-195, 2015).
Likewise, in humans, the amount of muscle, which is crucial for bodily functions, starts to decrease by 1-2% per year after the age of 50. By the time they reach 80, the muscle mass significantly decreases to about half of the maximum amount. Consequently, many elderly individuals experience sarcopenia or muscle atrophy, leading to a decline in physical function, disabilities, and frequent falls, all of which result in a reduced quality of life (Korean J Food and Nutr 4:133-139, 1991; J Nutr 127: 990S-991S, 1997; Curr Aging Sci 1:182-191, 2008). In particular, as the average lifespan increases and the proportion of the elderly people increases globally, muscle atrophy is recognized as an important aging disease (Curr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care 13:1-7, 2010). Normally, muscle mass in the human body is maintained at a constant level through a balance of protein synthesis and degradation. However, when protein degradation increases or synthesis decreases, muscle atrophy occurs. Muscle atrophy is commonly observed not only with aging, malnutrition, and reduced physical activity but also in chronic wasting diseases such as cancer, diabetes, uremia, chronic pulmonary disease, heart failure, and AIDS. It also occurs in acute conditions such as sepsis, surgery, trauma, and burns (Int J Biochem Cell Biol 37:2156-68, 2005). The muscular atrophy is caused by a gradual decrease in muscle amount, and refers to muscle weakness and degeneration, and is caused by various pathological conditions such as activity decline, nutritional deficiency, denervation, burns, chronic diseases, steroids, and aging, and is accompanied by muscle weakness in most cases. The muscular atrophy is promoted by inactivity, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation, weakens muscle function and exercise ability, causing significant disability in normal daily life ability, and limits independent life by increasing the risk of falls and fracture. The most important factor that determines muscle function is muscle mass, which is maintained by the balance of protein synthesis and degradation. The muscle atrophy occurs when protein degradation occurs more than synthesis. The muscle size is regulated by the intracellular signaling pathways that induce anabolic or catabolic activity that occurs in the muscle, and the muscle protein synthesis is increased when more signaling reactions that induce synthesis rather than the degradation of muscle proteins. In addition, it has been reported that the occurrence of muscle atrophy is related to the increase in the expression of proteins such as Atrogin-1 and Murf-1 that promote the degradation of myofibrillar proteins, and the inhibition of the PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling pathway involved in muscle-related protein synthesis (Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 287: C834-843, 2004). Currently, there are no clear therapeutic drugs available on the market to treat or improve muscle atrophy caused by chronic diseases and aging, and we rely solely on dietary supplements like protein supplements. The most fundamental and effective treatments for muscle atrophy are resistance exercises and aerobic exercises. However, regular exercise is highly challenging for severely ill patients, the elderly, and individuals with disabilities, making acceptance very low. Therefore, it is urgent to develop compositions derived from natural substances for the prevention and improvement of muscle atrophy that do not pose issues of tolerance or safety (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 98:14440-14445, 2001; J Biol Chem 280:2737-2744, 2005).
Meanwhile, Sargassum serratifolium (C. Agardh) C. Agardh 1820 is a perennial brown algae predominantly found along the southern and southeastern coasts of Korea and the coastal areas of Jeju Island. It is a large brown algae, with plant bodies ranging from 1 to 4 meters in length, and has roots that are conical and 4-5 cm in diameter with growth rings. The stem is cylindrical and short, branching into numerous central branches, with double serrated edges on the stem leaves as a morphological characteristic. It is known to possess various biological activities such as liver protection, improvement of serum lipids, anti-obesity effects, wrinkle improvement, and skin whitening. However, research on its activity for the prevention and treatment of muscle atrophy has not been reported so far.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following Examples. However, the following Examples are only intended to embody the contents of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
Sargassum serratifolium, naturally growing in Gijang-gun, Busan, and Tongyeong City, Gyeongsangnam-do, was collected using scuba diving. Species identification for specimens collected in Gijang was conducted by Professor Choi Chang-geun of the Department of Ecological Engineering at Pukyong National University, and species identification for those collected in Tongyeong was performed by Professor Kim Nam-gil of the Department of Marine Bioscience at Gyeongsang National University. After naturally drying the Sargassum serratifolium, 1.5 kg of the powder obtained by grinding was placed into 6 L of ethanol (85%) and reflux-extracted at approximately 70° C. for about 3 hours, repeated twice. After refluxing and cooling, the extract was filtered to remove impurities using a tangential flow filtration system (MWCO 50 kDa). The filtrate was concentrated using a vacuum rotary evaporator at 40° C. to remove the ethanol, yielding 160 g of extracted residue as the subextract. The obtained Sargassum serratifolium ethanolic extract was stored refrigerated at 4° C. for subsequent use as a sample.
In order to confirm the concentration of the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract that is not toxic to C2C12 myotubes, MTS analysis was performed.
The results showed that the viability of C2C12 cells was not affected up to a concentration of 5 ppm of the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract (
To investigate the effects of the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract on C2C12 myotubes with dexamethasone-induced atrophy, an MTS assay was conducted.
The results showed that the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract inhibited the decrease in cell viability caused by dexamethasone (
In order to confirm whether the Sargassum serratifolium ethanolic extract inhibits muscle atrophy in dexamethasone-induced C2C12 myotubes, the extent of inhibition was evaluated based on the reduction in myotube diameter using Giemsa-Wright staining. The results revealed that the Sargassum serratifolium ethanolic extract alleviated the decrease in myotube diameter induced by dexamethasone (
In order to confirm the effect of the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract on the regulation of Akt activation, which induces muscle hypertrophy/atrophy, in C2C12 myotubes with dexamethasone-induced atrophy, the phosphorylation levels of Akt was examined using Western blot analysis. The results showed that the phosphorylation levels of Akt, which were reduced by dexamethasone, were increased by treatment with the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract (
When the activation of Akt is reduced, the expression of muscle-specific E3 ubiquitin ligases, including atrogin-1/MAFbx and MuRF1, is promoted via FoxO, leading to muscle protein degradation. Therefore, in dexamethasone-induced C2C12 myotubes, the mRNA and protein expression levels of atrogin-1/MAFbx and MuRF1 were examined using qPCR and Western blot analysis. The results showed that the mRNA (
Due to reported muscle loss as a side effect of the lipid-lowering drug Atorvastatin, the effect of Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract on Atorvastatin-induced muscle atrophy in C2C12 myotubes was examined by qPCR to conform the changes in the mRNA expression levels of atrogin-1/MAFbx and MuRF1, which are related to muscle protein degradation. The results showed that the mRNA expression levels of atrogin-1/MAFbx and MuRF1 are significantly decreased by treating the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract (
To confirm the improvement effect of the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract on muscle atrophy, a muscle atrophy mouse model was prepared. Specifically, three-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were provided with free access to water and food and were acclimated under conditions of 23±2° C., relative humidity of 50±5%, and a 12-hour light/dark cycle. After 8 weeks of acclimation, the mice were randomly divided into the following groups: untreated group (CON, n=7), dexamethasone-treated group (DEX, n=7), dexamethasone and Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract 30 mg/kg/day group (MES30, n=7), dexamethasone and Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract 60 mg/kg/day group (MES60, n=8), and dexamethasone and Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract 120 mg/kg/day group (MES120, n=8). The Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract was dissolved in olive oil, and the control and dexamethasone-treated groups received the same volume of olive oil. The Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract was administered orally every day for 1 week before the dexamethasone injection and continued to be administered orally during the 5-week experimental period. To induce muscle atrophy, dexamethasone (10 mg/kg/day) was administered intraperitoneally once daily for 4 weeks, starting one week after the administration of Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract. In the untreated group, an equivalent volume of saline was administered intraperitoneally. Body weight and food intake were evaluated daily. The experiment was conducted with the approval of the Pukyong National University Animal Care and Use Committee, in accordance with Pukyong National University's animal experiment ethics regulations. In the muscle atrophy-induced mice, body weight gain was calculated using the body weight on the first day of dexamethasone administration and the body weight at the time of sacrifice, and the results are shown in Table 1. below.
As a result, as shown in Table 1 above, the DEX group treated with dexamethasone showed a significant decrease in body weight at the sacrifice time compared to the CON group. However, it was observed that the weight loss was inhibited in the group treated with Sargassum serratifolium extract.
To confirm the effect of improving muscle atrophy of the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract, Grip strength test and Weights test were used to assess the effect of improving muscle strength. Specifically, the grip strength test was conducted in the 5th week of the drug administration to measure the forelimb strength using a grip strength meter. The forelimbs of each mouse were placed on the grip strength meter's grid bar, and their tails were gently pulled back to keep their bodies horizontal. This process was repeated 10 times at 10-second intervals to measure the average grip strength.
Additionally, the weights test was conducted in the 5th week of the drug administration to measure forelimb muscle strength using weights. Starting with the lightest weight, 23 g, 30 g, 38 g, 44 g, 50 g, 58 g, 68 g, 78 g, 94 g, and 110 g weights were used. Each mouse attempted to lift each weight with its forelimbs and hold it for more than 3 seconds before moving on to the next heavier weight. The maximum weight each mouse could lift was recorded.
As a result, as shown in
7-2. Confirmation of the Effect of Increasing Muscle Function of Sargassum serratifolium Ethanol Extract
In order to confirm whether the Sargassum serratifolium extract of the present invention increases muscle performance (muscle endurance), a treadmill test was conducted. Specifically, mice from each group in Example 6 were evaluated using running on a treadmill. The evaluation was performed on a treadmill inclined at an angle (∠R=10°), starting at 10 m/min for 20 minutes and gradually increasing by 2 m/min every 2 minutes. If a mouse stayed on the shock grid for 10 seconds, it was considered fatigued, and the experiment was terminated. The running distance (m), running time (min), and maximum speed (m/min) were measured.
As a result, as shown in
The fat and lean body mass of the mice in each group were measured using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) just before sacrifice. Specifically, in the muscle atrophy mouse model, the ratios of lean body mass to total mass and fat mass to total mass were checked to observe changes in lean body mass and fat mass. Additionally, the thickness of the calf was measured using an electronic digital caliper on the left hind leg after exposing the muscles post-sacrifice.
As shown in
In addition, compared to the CON group, the DEX group showed an increase in the ratio of fat mass/total mass, indicating an increased proportion of fat within the body weight. However, in the MES group treated with the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract, the increased ratio of fat mass/total mass was significantly decreased, confirming a reduction in the proportion of fat within the body weight (
Furthermore, to assess calf muscle mass, calf thickness was measured. Compared to the CON group, the DEX group showed a significant decrease in calf thickness. However, in the MES group treated with the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract, the decreased calf thickness was significantly increased, confirming that the Sargassum serratifolium ethanol extract improves muscle atrophy and increases muscle mass (
All data in the present invention were expressed as mean #SEM of at least seven independent experiments, and significance between groups was evaluated using one-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey's multiple comparison test using GraphPad Prism 5.0.
Therefore, the Sargassum serratifolium extract of the present invention has been confirmed to protect muscle cells from dexamethasone-induced muscle atrophy caused by the side effects of atorvastatin, inhibit myotube diameter reduction, inhibit muscle atrophy, induce muscle hypertrophy, and inhibit muscle protein degradation. Additionally, in animal models with dexamethasone-induced muscle atrophy, it has been confirmed to increase muscle strength, improve muscle function, and increase muscle mass, thereby improving muscle diseases.
