Sialylation and muscle performance: sialic acid is a marker of muscle ageing.

Sialic acids (Sia) are widely expressed as terminal monosaccharides on eukaryotic glycoconjugates. They are involved in many cellular functions, such as cell-cell interaction and signal recognition. The key enzyme of sialic acid biosynthesis is the bifunctional UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase/N-...

Sialylation and muscle performance: sialic acid is a marker of muscle ageing.
description Sialic acids (Sia) are widely expressed as terminal monosaccharides on eukaryotic glycoconjugates. They are involved in many cellular functions, such as cell-cell interaction and signal recognition. The key enzyme of sialic acid biosynthesis is the bifunctional UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE), which catalyses the first two steps of Sia biosynthesis in the cytosol. In this study we analysed sialylation of muscles in wild type (C57Bl/6 GNE (+/+)) and heterozygous GNE-deficient (C57Bl/6 GNE (+/-)) mice. We measured a significantly lower performance in the initial weeks of a treadmill exercise in C57Bl/6 GNE (+/-) mice compared to wild type C57Bl/6 GNE (+/+) animals. Membrane bound Sia of C57Bl/6 GNE (+/-) mice were reduced by 33-53% at week 24 and by 12-15% at week 80 in comparison to C57Bl/6 GNE (+/+) mice.
