Abstract
Arthrogenic muscle inhibition is a poorly studied phenomenon that occurs in 30 to 50% of all capsular-ligamentous injuries in the knee joint. The study of the dynamics of myokine levels in the blood after the injury with development of arthrogenic muscle inhibition is important for understanding the processes of restoration of the motor segment structures. Objective of our study was to analyze the changes in blood myokine contents in patients with arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) caused by traumatic injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of knee joint. Materials and methods: The study included 58 men involved in aerobic sports (athletics, swimming, basketball) with ACL injury. To identify the AMI phenomenon, wee performed electromyographic (EMG) study of the straight head of the quadriceps femoris muscle of the injured limb using a 4-channel EMG/EP system “Viking Quest” (Nicolet, USA). Myokine levels in venous blood were determined using ELISA test systems: IL-6 (Vector-Best, Novosibirsk); concentration of transforming growth factor β, decorin, myostatin (Cloud-Clone Corp. (China); VEGF (BioKhimMak CJSC). The control group consisted of 12 healthy men, average age 34.2±2.4 years. Statistical processing of the material was carried out with Statistica. vers.10.0 package (StatSoft Inc., USA). Results. In patients with ACL injury and AMT phenomenon, a significant decrease in blood concentrations of IL-6, transforming growth factor β and proteoglycan – decorin were found like as increased amounts of VEGF and MSTN, which, along with TGF-β, belong to the group of growth factors when compared with the appropriate indices in patients with ACL injury without AMT phenomenon. Discussion: A decrease in the level of IL-6, decorin and VEGF may be a consequence of forced hypokinesia in ACL injury, and the AMT formation may also result from increased myostatin blood levels, which is a negative regulator of myogenesis. Conclusion: The changed myokine concentrations in peripheral blood during traumatic damage to the capsular-ligamentous apparatus of the knee joint clearly suggest an involvement of muscle secretome into traumatic tissue damage and development of arthrogenic muscle inhibition phenomenon.
