Throughout a vertebrate organism’s lifespan, skeletal muscle mass and function progressively decline. This age-related condition is termed sarcopenia. In humans, sarcopenia is associated with risk of falling, cardiovascular disease, and all-cause mortality. As the world population ages, projected to reach 2 billion older adults worldwide in 2050, the economic burden on the healthcare system is also projected to increase considerably. Currently, there are no pharmacological treatments for sarcopenia, and given the long-term nature of aging studies, high-throughput chemical screens are impractical in mammalian models. Zebrafish is a promising, up-and-coming vertebrate model in the field of sarcopenia that could fill this gap. Here, we developed a surface electrical impedance myography (sEIM) platform to assess skeletal muscle health, quantitatively and noninvasively, in adult zebrafish (young, aged, and genetic mutant animals). In aged zebrafish (~85% lifespan) as compared to young zebrafish (~20% lifespan), sEIM parameters (2 kHz phase angle, 2 kHz reactance, and 2 kHz resistance) robustly detected muscle atrophy (p < 0.000001, q = 0.000002; p = 0.000004, q = 0.000006; p = 0.000867, q = 0.000683, respectively). Moreover, these same measurements exhibited strong correlations with an established morphometric parameter of muscle atrophy (myofiber cross-sectional area), as determined by histological-based morphometric analysis (r = 0.831, p = 2 × 10−12; r = 0.6959, p = 2 × 10−8; and r = 0.7220; p = 4 × 10−9, respectively). Finally, the genetic deletion of gpr27, an orphan G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR), exacerbated the atrophy of skeletal muscle in aged animals, as evidenced by both sEIM and histology. In conclusion, the data here show that surface EIM techniques can effectively discriminate between healthy young and sarcopenic aged muscle as well as the advanced atrophied muscle in the gpr27 KO animals. Moreover, these studies show how EIM values correlate with cell size across the animals, making it potentially possible to utilize sEIM as a “virtual biopsy” in zebrafish to noninvasively assess myofiber atrophy, a valuable measure for muscle and gerontology research.
