Abstract—The objective of this study is to investigate the role of Calmodulin-dependent protein
kinase IV (CaMKIV) in Cardiotoxin (CTX)-induced mice muscle inflammation. CTX injection i.m. was performed to induce B6 mice acute tibialis anterior (TA) muscle injury. The mice were then injected i.p. with the recombinant CaMKIV protein or its antagonist KN-93. Immunoblotting was used to assess Calmodulin (CaM) and CaMKIV levels. Immunofluorescence was used to detect intramuscular infiltration or major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-I expression in damaged muscle. The extent of infiltration was evaluated by fluorescent intensity analysis. Cytokines/chemokines levels were determined by qPCR. CaMKIV gene knockdown in C2C12 cells was performed in order to evaluate the effects of CaMKIV on immuno-behavior of muscle cells. CTX administration induced a strong up-regulation of CaM and p-CaMKIV levels in infiltrated mononuclear cells and regenerated myofibers. In vivo adding of the recombinant CaMKIV protein enhanced intramuscular infiltration of monocytes/macrophages in damaged muscle and increased the number of proinflammatory Ly-6C+F4/80+ macrophage cells. CaMKIV DanDan Shi, RuiCai Gu and YaFeng Song contributed equally to this work.
