Reactive oxygen species formation during tetanic contractions in single isolated Xenopus myofibers.

Contracting skeletal muscle produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) that have been shown to affect muscle function and adaptation. However, real-time measurement of ROS in contracting myofibers has proven to be difficult. We used amphibian (Xenopus laevis) muscle to test the hypothesis that ROS are formed during contractile activity in isolated single skeletal muscle fibers and that this contraction-induced ROS formation affects fatigue development. Single myofibers were loaded with 5 μM dihydrofluorescein-DA (Hfluor-DA), a fluorescent probe that reacts with ROS and results in the formation of fluorescein (Fluor) to precisely monitor ROS generation within single myofibers in real time using confocal miscroscopy. Three identical periods of maximal tetanic contractions (1 contraction/3 s for 2 min, separated by 60 min of rest) were conducted by each myofiber (n = 6) at 20°C. Ebselen (an antioxidant) was present in the perfusate (10 μM) during the second contractile period. Force was reduced by ∼30% during each of the three contraction periods, with no significant difference in fatigue development among the three periods. The Fluor signal, indicative of ROS generation, increased significantly above baseline in both the first (42 ± 14%) and third periods (39 ± 10%), with no significant difference in the increase in fluorescence between the first and third periods. There was no increase of Fluor in the presence of ebselen during the second contractile period. These results demonstrated that, in isolated intact Xenopus myofibers, 1) ROS can be measured in real time during tetanic contractions, 2) contractile activity induced a significant increase above resting levels of ROS production, and 3) ebselen treatment reduced ROS generation to baseline levels but had no effect on myofiber contractility and fatigue development.
