Reduced lean body mass in genetically obese (ob/ob) or anorectic/cachectic subjects prompted us to verify the hypothesis whether leptin, white adipose tissue cytokine, might be a negative organizer of myogenesis. Recombinant leptin (100ng/mL) stimulated mitogenesis together with the raise in T²⁰²/Y²⁰⁴P-ERK1/2 protein expression. Concomitantly, it impaired cell viability and muscle fiber formation from C2C12 mouse myoblasts. Detailed acute and chronic studies with the use of metabolic inhibitors revealed that both JAK/STAT3 and MEK/MAPK but not PI3-K/AKT/GSK-3β signaling pathways were activated by leptin, and that STAT3 (Y⁷⁰⁵P-STAT3) and MEK (T²⁰²/Y²⁰⁴P-ERK1/2) mediate these effects. In contrary, insulin evoked PI3-K-dependent phosphorylation of AKT (S⁴⁷³) and GSK-3β (S⁹) and insulin surpassed leptin-dependent inhibition of myogenic differentiation in PI3-K-dependent manner. GSK-3β seems to play dual role in muscle development. Insulin-dependent effect on GSK-3β (S⁹P-GSK-3β) led to accelerated myotube construction. In contrary, leptin through MEK-dependent manner caused GSK-3β phosphorylation (Y²¹⁶P-GSK-3β) with resultant drop in myoblast fusion. Summing up, partially opposite effects of insulin and leptin on skeletal muscle growth emphasize the importance of interplay between these cytokines. They determine how muscle mass is gained or lost.
