Aged skeletal muscle displays increased fibrosis and impaired regeneration. While it is not well characterized how skeletal muscle fibroblasts contribute to these phenomena, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and Delta/Notch signaling have been implicated to influence muscle regeneration. In this study, a unique combination of aging phenotypes is identified in differentiating fibroblasts (myofibroblasts), proliferating fibroblasts, and muscle precursor cells (MPCs) that characterize an impaired regenerative potential observed in aged skeletal muscle. Using a novel dual-isolation technique, that isolates fibroblasts and MPCs from the same rat skeletal muscle sample, and cell culture conditions of 5 % O2and 5 % CO2, we report for the first time that myofibroblasts from 32-mo-old skeletal muscle, compared to 3-mo-old, display increased levels of mRNA for the essential extracellular matrix (ECM) genes, collagen 4α1 (83 % increase), collagen 4α2 (98 % increase), and laminin 2 (113 % increase), as well as increased levels of mRNA for the inflammatory markers, interleukin-6 (4.3-fold increase) and tumor necrosis factor α (3.2-fold increase), and TGF-β1 (84 % increase), whose protein controls proliferation and differentiation. Additionally, we demonstrate that proliferating fibroblasts from 32-mo-old skeletal muscle display increased levels of mRNA for the Notch ligand, Delta 1 (≥2.0-fold increase). Together, these findings suggest that increased expression of ECM and inflammatory genes in myofibroblasts from 32-mo-old skeletal muscle may contribute to the fibrogenic phenotype that impairs regeneration in aged skeletal muscle. Furthermore, we believe the novel dual-isolation technique developed here may be useful in studies that investigate communications among MPCs, fibroblasts, and myofibroblasts in skeletal muscle.
