A successful repair did not lead to improvement or reversal of muscle degeneration and a failed repair resulted in significantly more progression.” Gladstone et al, AJSM 2007. -Molecular pathways are not known -Limited animal models to study pathophysiology muscle changes after RCT 1 5/8/2014 Development of a small animal model of massive RCT: Part I Sham 0.4 intact Tendon transection (TT) TT Development of a small animal model of massive RCT: Part I TT+DN 0.3 Picric acid stain for fibrosis Oil Red O Stain for fat 0.2 0.1 TT+Denervation (DN) 0 Suprspinatus weight Infraspinatus weight Liu et al JOR 2011 Liu et al JOR 2011 Development of a small animal model of massive RCT: Part II Rat model: Minimal healing (20%) Moderate atrophy, fibrosis not much fatty infiltration Development of a small animal model of massive RCT: Part II Mouse model • Isolated denervation • Combined groups Significant atrophy at 12 weeks Suprascapular nerve Liu, et al JBJS 2012 Summary mouse model: separate incision for DN-better atrophy, FI, fibrosis Liu, et al JBJS 2012 2 5/8/2014 Molecular Mechanisms of Muscle Atrophy and Fatty Infiltration RCT/mechanical unloading leads to a decrease in Akt/mTOR activity and muscle atrophy Ideal Pathway….

Summary…so far • Rat and mouse model of massive RCT are reasonable to study muscle changes after RCT • Mechanical unloading and denervation cause different effects on muscle genotype • Akt/mTOR pathway is an important regulator of atrophy/FI • TGF-B likely important in fibrosis, may be upstream regulator of Akt/mTOR Rotator cuff tear Tendon degeneration Muscle degeneration Cartilage degeneration Kramer, JSES 2013 Muscle atrophy Fatty infiltration Akt/mTOR FOXO MuRF-1 MAFBx Lysosome Akt/mTOR SREBP-1 PPARy Muscle fibrosis TGF-B (JSES 2014, in press) MMP-13 (ORS 2014) UCSF Muscle Lab Xuhui Liu, MD Hubert Kim, MD, PhD Niko Laron, MD Sanjum Samagh, MD Sunil Joshi Bharat Ravishankar UCSF C.
