Effect of glycogen availability on human skeletal muscle protein turnover during exercise and recovery.

چکیده
We examined the effect of carbohydrate (CHO) availability on whole body and skeletal muscle protein utilization at rest, during exercise, and during recovery in humans. Six men cycled at approximately 75% peak O(2) uptake (Vo(2peak)) to exhaustion to reduce body CHO stores and then consumed either a high-CHO (H-CHO; 71 + or - 3% CHO) or low-CHO (L-CHO; 11 + or - 1% CHO) diet for 2 days before the trial in random order. After each dietary intervention, subjects received a primed constant infusion of [1-(13)C]leucine and l-[ring-(2)H(5)]phenylalanine for measurements of the whole body net protein balance and skeletal muscle protein turnover. Muscle, breath, and arterial and venous blood samples were obtained at rest, during 2 h of two-legged kicking exercise at approximately 45% of kicking Vo(2peak), and during 1 h of recovery. Biopsy samples confirmed that the muscle glycogen concentration was lower in the L-CHO group versus the H-CHO group at rest, after exercise, and after recovery. The net leg protein balance was decreased in the L-CHO group compared with at rest and compared with the H-CHO condition, which was primarily due to an increase in protein degradation (area under the curve of the phenylalanine rate of appearance: 1,331 + or - 162 micromol in the L-CHO group vs. 786 + or - 51 micromol in the H-CHO group, P < 0.05) but also due to a decrease in protein synthesis late in exercise. There were no changes during exercise in the rate of appearance compared with rest in the H-CHO group. Whole body leucine oxidation increased above rest in the L-CHO group only and was higher than in the H-CHO group. The whole body net protein balance was reduced in the L-CHO group, largely due to a decrease in whole body protein synthesis. These data extend previous findings by others and demonstrate, using contemporary stable isotope methodology, that CHO availability influences the rates of skeletal muscle and whole body protein synthesis, degradation, and net balance during prolonged exercise in humans.

Implications of Hyperglycemia for Post-exercise Resynthesis of Glycogen in Trout Skeletal Muscle
Rates of whole-body glucose turnover and muscle-specific glucose utilization were determined in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) at rest and at intervals during recovery from burst swimming. Plasma glucose level was high in the experimental animals (range 6­38 mmol l-1), but hyperglycemia was not related specifically to exercise. Estimated glucose turnover, 19.3±2.6 (rest) and 15....
متن کاملEffect of carbohydrate supplementation on postexercise GLUT-4 protein expression in skeletal muscle.
The effect of carbohydrate supplementation on skeletal muscle glucose transporter GLUT-4 protein expression was studied in fast-twitch red and white gastrocnemius muscle of Sprague-Dawley rats before and after glycogen depletion by swimming. Exercise significantly reduced fast-twitch red muscle glycogen by 50%. During a 16-h exercise recovery period, muscle glycogen returned to control levels (...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 in skeletal muscle during and after exercise.
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) has a key position in skeletal muscle metabolism as it represents the entry of carbohydrate-derived fuel into the mitochondria for oxidation. PDC is regulated by a phosphorylation-dephosphorylation cycle, in which the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK) phosphorylates and inactivates the complex. PDK exists in four isoforms, of which the PDK4 isoform is ...
