The present study examined the effect of high-intensity exercise training on muscle sarcolemmal lactate/H+ transport and the monocarboxylate transporters (MCT1 and MCT4) as well as lactate and H+ release during intense exercise in humans. One-legged knee-extensor exercise training was performed for 8 wk, and biopsies were obtained from untrained and trained vastus lateralis muscle. The rate of lactate/H+ transport determined in sarcolemmal giant vesicles was 12% higher ( P < 0.05) in the trained than in untrained muscle ( n = 7). The content of MCT1 and MCT4 protein was also higher (76 and 32%, respectively; n = 4) in trained muscle. Release of lactate and H+ from the quadriceps muscle at the end of intense exhaustive knee-extensor exercise was similar in the trained and untrained leg, although the estimated muscle intracellular-to-interstitial gradients of lactate and H+ were lower ( P < 0.05) in the trained than in the untrained muscle. The present data show that intense exercise training can increase lactate/H+transport capacity in human skeletal muscle as well as improve the ability of the muscle to release lactate and H+ during contractions.

The legs of 9 men (age 21 ± 2 years, 45 ± 4 mL/(kg·min)) were randomly assigned to complete 6 sessions of high-intensity exercise training, involving either one or four 5-min bouts of counterweighted, single-leg cycling. Needle biopsies from vastus lateralis revealed that citrate synthase maximal activity increased after training in the 4-bout group (p = 0.035) but not the 1-bout group (p = 0.10), with a significant difference between groups post-training (13%, p = 0.021). Novelty Short-term training using brief intense exercise requires multiple bouts per session to increase mitochondrial content in human skeletal muscle.

Exercise Induced

The present study investigated the effect of an acute exercise bout on the mRNA response of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) splice variants in untrained and trained human skeletal muscle. Seven habitually active young men performed one-legged knee-extensor exercise training at an intensity corresponding to ∼70% of the maximal workload in an incremental test five times/week for 4 wk. Biopsies were obtained from the vastus lateralis muscle of the trained and untrained leg 40 h after the last training session. The subjects then performed 3 h of two-legged knee-extensor exercise, and biopsies were obtained from both legs after 0, 2, 6, and 24 h of recovery. Real-time PCR was used to examine the expression of VEGF mRNA containing exon 1 and 2 (all VEGF isoforms), exon 6 or exon 7, and VEGF165mRNA. Acute exercise induced an increase ( P < 0.05) in total VEGF mRNA levels as well as VEGF165and VEGF splice variants containing exon 7 at 0, 2, and 6 h of recovery. The increase in VEGF mRNA was higher in the untrained than in the trained leg ( P < 0.05). The results suggest that in human skeletal muscle, acute exercise increases total VEGF mRNA, an increase that appears to be explained mainly by an increase in VEGF165mRNA. Furthermore, 4 wk of training attenuated the exercise-induced response in skeletal muscle VEGF165mRNA.

Exercise training elicits a number of adaptive changes in skeletal muscle that result in an improved metabolic efficiency. The molecular mechanisms mediating the cellular adaptations to exercise training in human skeletal muscle are unknown. To test the hypothesis that recovery from exercise is associated with transcriptional activation of specific genes, six untrained male subjects completed 60–90 min of exhaustive one-legged knee extensor exercise for five consecutive days. On day 5, nuclei were isolated from biopsies of the vastus lateralis muscle of the untrained and the trained leg before exercise and from the trained leg immediately after exercise and after 15 min, 1 h, 2 h, and 4 h of recovery. Transcriptional activity of the uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3), pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 (PDK4), and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) genes (relative to β-actin) increased by three- to sevenfold in response to exercise, peaking after 1–2 h of recovery. Increases in mRNA levels followed changes in transcription, peaking between 2 and 4 h after exercise. Lipoprotein lipase and carnitine pamitoyltransferase I gene transcription and mRNA levels showed similar but less dramatic induction patterns, with increases ranging from two- to threefold. In a separate study, a single 4-h bout of cycling exercise ( n = 4) elicited from 5 to >20-fold increases in UCP3, PDK4, and HO-1 transcription, suggesting that activation of these genes may be related to the duration or intensity of exercise. These data demonstrate that exercise induces transient increases in transcription of metabolic genes in human skeletal muscle. Moreover, the findings suggest that the cumulative effects of transient increases in transcription during recovery from consecutive bouts of exercise may represent the underlying kinetic basis for the cellular adaptations associated with exercise training.

AbstractInterleukin (IL)-15 stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis, fat oxidation, glucose uptake and myogenesis in skeletal muscle. However, the mechanisms by which exercise triggers IL-15 expression remain to be elucidated in humans. This study aimed at determining whether high-intensity exercise and exercise-induced RONS stimulate IL-15/IL-15Rα expression and its signaling pathway (STAT3) in human skeletal muscle. Nine volunteers performed a 30-s Wingate test in normoxia and hypoxia (PIO2=75 mmHg), 2 h after placebo or antioxidant administration (α-lipoic acid, vitamin C and E) in a randomized double-blind design. Blood samples and muscle biopsies (vastus lateralis) were obtained before, immediately after, and 30 and 120 min post-exercise. Sprint exercise upregulated skeletal muscle IL-15 protein expression (ANOVA, P=0.05), an effect accentuated by antioxidant administration in hypoxia (ANOVA, P=0.022). In antioxidant conditions, the increased IL-15 expression at 120 min post-exercise (33%; P=0.017) was associated with the oxygen deficit caused by the sprint (r=–0.54; P=0.020); while, IL-15 and Tyr705-STAT3 AUCs were also related (r=0.50; P=0.036). Antioxidant administration promotes IL-15 protein expression in human skeletal muscle after sprint exercise, particularly in severe acute hypoxia. Therefore, during intense muscle contraction, a reduced PO2 and glycolytic rate, and possibly, an attenuated RONS generation may facilitate IL-15 production, accompanied by STAT3 activation, in a process that does not require AMPK phosphorylation.

Exercise Adaptation

Angiogenesis is a component of the multifactoral adaptation to exercise training, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is involved in extracellular matrix changes and endothelial cell proliferation. However, there is limited evidence supporting the role of VEGF in the exercise training response. Thus we studied mRNA levels of VEGF, using quantitative Northern analysis, in untrained and trained human skeletal muscle at rest and after a single bout of exercise. Single leg knee-extension provided the acute exercise stimulus and the training modality. Four biopsies were collected from the vastus lateralis muscle at rest in the untrained and trained conditions before and after exercise. Training resulted in a 35% increase in muscle oxygen consumption and an 18% increase in number of capillaries per muscle fiber. At rest, VEGF/18S mRNA levels were similar before (0.38 ± 0.04) and after (1.2 ± 0.4) training. When muscle was untrained, acute exercise greatly elevated VEGF/18S mRNA levels (16.9 ± 6.7). The VEGF/18S mRNA response to acute exercise in the trained state was markedly attenuated (5.4 ± 1.3). These data support the concept that VEGF is involved in exercise-induced skeletal muscle angiogenesis and appears to be subject to a negative feedback mechanism as exercise adaptations occur.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether high-intensity exercise training increases the vascular flow capacity and capillary exchange capacity in isolated rat hindquarters. One group of 20 male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent six bouts of alternating running (2.5 min) and recovery (4.5 min), 5 days/wk at 60 m/min on a 15% grade for 6-10 wk (high-intensity exercise training), while a second group of 20 rats was cage confined (sedentary controls). Experiments were conducted in isolated, maximally dilated (papaverine) hindquarters perfused with an artificial plasma consisting of a Tyrode's solution containing 5 g/100 ml albumin. Vascular flow capacity was evaluated by measuring perfusate flow rate at four different perfusion pressures. Capillary exchange capacity was evaluated by measuring the capillary filtration coefficient. The efficacy of training was demonstrated by significant increases in succinate dehydrogenase activity in the white vastus lateralis and vastus intermedius muscles. Total hindquarter flow capacity was elevated 50-100% in the trained rats. This increased flow capacity was associated with an increase in the capillary filtration coefficient in the maximally vasodilated hindquarters, thus suggesting that the capillary exchange capacity was increased with high-speed exercise training. These results suggest that the vascular transport capacity in rat hindquarter muscles is significantly increased by high-intensity exercise training.
