Skeletal muscle atrophy and weakness are major causes of frailty in the elderly. Functional deficits in muscles of old humans and rodents are associated with attenuated production of heat shock proteins (HSPs) after exercise, and transgenic overexpression of HSP70 reverses this functional decline. We hypothesized that training would increase HSP70 content of muscle in adult and old wild-type mice and that this would protect against the development of age-related functional deficits. A 10-wk treadmill training protocol at 15 m/min, for 15 min, 3 days/wk resulted in a significant increase in HSP70 content of muscles of adult mice. Muscles of old untrained mice demonstrated a significant increase in HSP70 protein content and a reduction in HSP70 mRNA content compared with adult untrained mice. Training for 12 mo starting at age 12-14 mo old or for 10 wk starting from age 24 mo old resulted in modification of HSP70 protein and mRNA content to levels of adult mice. Training did not change force generation of extensor digitorum longus muscles of old mice or improve recovery after damaging contractions. The twofold increase in HSP70 content in muscles of adult mice after training may have not been sufficient to provide protection in this instance.
