dc.description.abstractSyndecan-4 and integrins are involved in the cell migration and adhesion processes in several cell types. Syndecan-4, a transmembrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan, is associated to focal adhesions in adherent cells and has been described as a marker of satellite cells in skeletal muscle. In this tissue, beta 1 integrin forms heterodimers with alpha 5 and alpha 6 during myoblast differentiation and with alpha 7 in adult muscle. Here, we show that the levels of these two cell surface membrane molecules are regulated by spontaneous electrical activity during the differentiation of rat primary myoblasts. Syndecan-4 and beta 1 integrin protein levels decrease after the inhibition of electrical activity using tetrodotoxin (TTX). Syndecan-4 also decreases substantially in denervated rat tibialis anterior muscle. Indirect immunofluorescence analysis shows that syndecan-4 and beta 1 integrin co-localize with vinculin, a molecular marker of costameres in skeletal muscle myofibers. Co-localization is lost in inactive myotubes adopting a diffuse pattern, suggesting that the costameric organization is disrupted in TTX-treated myotubes. Moreover, the inhibition of spontaneous electrical activity decreases myotube cell adhesion. In summary, this work shows that syndecan-4 and beta 1 integrin protein levels and their localization in costameric structures are regulated by electrical activity and suggests that this regulatory mechanism influences the adhesion properties of skeletal myotubes during differentiation.
