Sepsis-induced muscle proteolysis mainly reflects ubiquitin-proteasome-dependent protein degradation. The effect of in vivo administration of a proteasome inhibitor on muscle protein breakdown during sepsis is not known. We treated rats with the proteasome inhibitor N-benzyloxycarbonyl-Ile-Glu-(O-t-butyl)-leucinal (PSI) or corresponding volume of vehicle i.p. 2 h before sham-operation or induction of sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture. The sepsis-induced increase in total and myofibrillar muscle protein breakdown was inhibited in rats treated in vivo with PSI and a maximal effect was seen following 15 mg/kg of the proteasome inhibitor. Results from in vitro experiments in which incubated muscles were treated with 100 mu M PSI suggest that the drug has a direct effect on muscle and that the effect is specific for the proteasome. The results are important because they suggest that it may be possible to prevent or improve the cachectic response in skeletal muscle during sepsis by treatment with a proteasome inhibitor.
