Abstract

Dexamethasone, a widely clinically used glucocorticoid, increaseshuman skeletal muscle Na⁺,K⁺ pump content, but the effects onmaximal Na⁺,K⁺ pump activity and subunit specific mRNA are unknown.Ten healthy male subjects ingested dexamethasone for 5 daysand the effects on Na⁺,K⁺ pump content, maximal activity andsubunit specific mRNA level (a1, a2, ß1, ß2,ß3) in deltoid and vastus lateralis muscle were investigated.Before treatment, maximal Na⁺,K⁺ pump activity, as well as a1,a2, ß1 and ß2 mRNA levels were higher (P< 0.05) in vastus lateralis than in deltoid. Dexamethasonetreatment increased Na⁺,K⁺ pump maximal activity in vastus lateralisand deltoid by 14 ± 7% (P < 0.05) and 18 ±6% (P < 0.05) as well as Na⁺,K⁺ pump content by 18 ±9% (P < 0.001) and 24 ± 8% (P < 0.01), respectively.Treatment with dexamethasone resulted in a higher a1, a2, ß1and ß2 mRNA expression in the deltoid (P < 0.05),but no effects on Na⁺,K⁺ pump mRNA were detected in vastus lateralis.In conclusion, dexamethasone treatment increased maximal Na⁺,K⁺pump activity in both vastus lateralis and deltoid muscles.The relative importance of transcription and translation inthe glucocorticoid-induced regulation of Na⁺,K⁺ pump expressionseems to be muscle specific and possibly dependent on the actualtraining condition of the muscle, such that a high Na⁺,K⁺ pumpmaximal activity and mRNA level prior to treatment preventsthe transcriptional response to dexamethasone, but not the increasein Na⁺,K⁺ pump content and maximal activity.
