Micro-environment Involvement in Muscle Alteration Induced (MicAMI-BPCO)

June 22, 2020 updated by: University Hospital, Montpellier

Micro-environment Involvement in Muscle Alteration Induced by Copd Exacerbation

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by persistent airway obstruction and inflammatory response of the lungs and bronchi. Episodes of exacerbations contribute to increase the severity and prognosis of the disease. Muscle dysfunction (loss of strengh and muscle mass) is one of comorbidities affecting 30% to 60% of patients and playing a key role in their prognosis. During exacerbation, some studies have suggested an association between muscle dysfunction and modifications of inflammatory circulating factors such as CRP, TNF-alpha, IL- 6, IL8, but no exhaustive study has identified precisely one (or more) biomarker(s) that can induce this muscle wasting during the exacerbation of COPD. Our hypothesis is that the serum of exacerbated COPD patients represents a deleterious microenvironment for the muscle cells which would amplify the mechanisms of atrophy linked to hospitalization. Our team has already developed a cell culture model to study the effects of the plasma microenvironment on atrophy of cultured myotubes. The investigators have shown that the serum of COPD patients can induce muscle atrophy.

The objectives of this study are : 1/ to evaluate the effects of circulating pro-inflammatory factors on atrophy and the myogenic capacities of muscle cells; and 2/ to identify one (or more) circulating biomarker (s) that may be responsible for the muscle damage induced by the microenvironment of hospitalized patients for exacerbation of COPD. First, myotubes and myoblasts of healthy subjects will be cultivated with 9 exacerbation copd patient serum or 9 copd patient serum or 9 healthy subject serum. Myotube diameters, atrophy, inflammatory and oxidative stress markers and alteration of the myogenic capacity of satellite cells will be compared between three groups. Second, the differential expression of circulating proinflammatory molecules will be compared in the serum of the three groups. Identifying circulating factors associated with muscle weakness is a necessary step to better understand the mechanisms and consider a personalized therapeutic approach that can improve the functional and clinical prognosis of disease.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Effects evaluation of circulating pro-inflammatory factors on atrophy
Time Frame: 6 months

Atrophy marker evaluation in cultured muscle cells (myotubes)

  • cultured myotube diameter exposed to the three serum groups (immunofluorescence)
  • atrophy (ubiquitin proteasome system, proteolytic autophagy pathway), inflammatory (TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-8…) and oxidative stress (ROS, lipid peroxidation) markers expressed by cells exposed to the three serum groups (PCR et WesternBlot)
6 months
Effects evaluation of circulating pro-inflammatory factors on the myogenic capacities of muscle cells
Time Frame: 6 months

Myogenic capacities of cultured muscle cells (myoblastes)

  • inflammatory (TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-8…) and oxidative stress (ROS, lipid peroxidation) markers expressed by cells exposed to the three serum groups (PCR et WesternBlot)
  • regeneration markers (Notch and myogenesis signaling pathways) expressed by cells exposed to the three serum groups (PCR et WesternBlot)
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Identification of one (or more) circulating biomarker (s)
Time Frame: 3 months
Identification of one (or more) circulating biomarker (s) that may be responsible for the muscle alteration induced by the microenvironment of patient in exacerbation of COPD
