The effect of skeletal muscle glycogen content on in situ glycogenolysis during short-term tetanic electrical stimulation was examined. Rats were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: normal (N, stimulated only), supercompensated (S, stimulated 21 h after a 3-h swim), and fasted (F, stimulated after a 20-h fast). Before stimulation, glycogen contents in the white (WG) and red gastrocnemius (RG) and soleus (SOL) muscles were increased by 13-25% in S and decreased by 15-27% in F compared with N. Hindlimb blood flow was occluded 60 s before stimulation to produce a predominantly anaerobic environment. Muscles were stimulated with trains of supramaximal impulses (100 ms at 80 Hz) at a rate of 1 Hz for 60 s. Muscle glycogenolysis was measured from the decrease in glycogen content and estimated from the accumulation of glycolytic intermediates in the closed system. The resting glycogen content had no effect on measured or estimated glycogenolysis in all muscles studied. Average glycogenolysis in the WG, RG, and SOL muscles was 98.4 +/- 4.3, 60.9 +/- 4.0, and 11.2 +/- 3.6 mumol glucosyl U/g dry muscle, respectively. Hindlimb tension production was similar across conditions. The results suggest that in vivo glycogen phosphorylase activity in skeletal muscle is not regulated by the content of its substrate glycogen (range 80-165 mumol/g) during short-term tetanic stimulation in an anaerobic environment. 相似文献

The effect of glycogen content on the activation of glycogen phosphorylase during adrenaline stimulation was investigated in soleus muscles from Wistar rats. Furthermore, adrenergic activation of glycogen phosphorylase in the slow-twitch oxidative soleus muscle was compared to the fast-twitch glycolytic epitrochlearis muscle. The glycogen content was 96.4 +/- 4.4 mmol (kg dw)(-1) in soleus muscles. Three hours of incubation with 10 mU/ml of insulin (and 5.5 mM glucose) increased the glycogen content to 182.2+/-5.9 mmol (kg dw)(-1) which is similar to that of epitrochlearis muscles (175.7+/-6.9 mmol (kg dw)(-1)). Total phosphorylase activity in soleus was independent of glycogen content. Adrenaline (10(-6) M) transformed about 20% and 35% (P < 0.01) of glycogen phosphorylase to the a form in soleus with normal and high glycogen content, respectively. In epitrochlearis, adrenaline stimulation transformed about 80% of glycogen phosphorylase to the a form. Glycogen synthase activation was reduced to low level in soleus muscles with both normal and high glycogen content. In conclusion, adrenaline-mediated glycogen phosphorylase activation is enhanced in rat soleus muscles with increased glycogen content. Glycogen phosphorylase activation during adrenaline stimulation was much higher in epitrochlearis than in soleus muscles with a similar content of glycogen. 相似文献

Epinephrine infusion enhances muscle glycogenolysis during prolonged electrical stimulation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
To determine the effects of epinephrine (EPI) infusion on muscle glycogenolysis and force production, the quadriceps muscles of both legs in six subjects were intermittently stimulated for 30 min. Contractions lasted 1.6 s (20 Hz) and were separated by 1.6 s of rest. EPI was infused (approximately 0.14 micrograms.kg body wt-1.min-1) in one leg during the last 15 min and the vastus lateralis was biopsied at rest (control leg only) and after 15, 18 (EPI leg only), and 30 min of stimulation. EPI infusion doubled the mole fraction of phosphorylase a (22.5 +/- 4.1 to 44.8 +/- 9.0%) and glycogenolysis (2.16 +/- 0.72 to 5.45 +/- 0.81 mmol glucosyl U.kg dry muscle wt-1.min-1) during stimulation. Muscle glucose 6-phosphate increased from 3.04 +/- 0.17 to 6.43 +/- 0.20 mmol/kg dry muscle wt, and lactate increased from 25.8 +/- 4.4 to 34.3 +/- 4.6 mmol/kg after 3 min of EPI infusion. Isometric force production was unaltered by EPI infusion. These results demonstrate a strong glycogenolytic effect of EPI infusion during prolonged electrical stimulation and suggest that the extra pyruvate formed was converted mainly to lactate. Exclusive anaerobic metabolism of the extra substrate would provide only a 10% increase in total ATP production, possibly accounting for the lack of improvement in force production. We suggest that the decrease in force production during prolonged electrical stimulation is related to decreased excitation of the contractile mechanism rather than inhibition of cross-bridge turnover caused by a shortage of energy or accumulation of hyproducts. 相似文献

Regulation of phosphorylase a activity in human skeletal muscle 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The control mechanism of glycogenolysis by phosphorylase a in contracting muscle has been investigated. The quadriceps femoris muscles of six subjects were intermittently stimulated at 15 and 50 Hz. The stimulation lasted 9.6 s and was performed twice at 15 Hz and once at 50 Hz. Epinephrine was infused continuously during the experiment. The force generation and ATP turnover rate were nearly twofold higher at 50 Hz than at 15 Hz. Calculated mean Pi was 5.7 and 10.0 mM during the two 15-Hz stimulations and 8.1 mM during the 50-Hz stimulation. Phosphorylase a varied between 85.5 and 91.5% without significant differences between periods. However, the rate of glycogenolysis was twofold higher during the stimulation at 50 Hz than it was at 15 Hz (P less than 0.05) and was related to the ATP turnover rate (r = 0.992). These results demonstrate that rapid glycogen breakdown during muscle contraction cannot be solely explained by transformation of phosphorylase b to a and increased Pi concentration. The contraction intensity may determine the glycogenolytic rate through a transient increase in free AMP level related to the ATP turnover rate. 相似文献

A model to study glycogen supercompensation (the significant increase in glycogen content above basal level) in primary rat skeletal muscle culture was established. Glycogen was completely depleted in differentiated myotubes by 2 h of electrical stimulation or exposure to hypoxia during incubation in medium devoid of glucose. Thereafter, cells were incubated in medium containing glucose, and glycogen supercompensation was clearly observed in treated myotubes after 72 h. Peak glycogen levels were obtained after 120 h, averaging 2.5 and 4 fold above control values in the stimulated- and hypoxia-treated cells, respectively. Glycogen synthase activity increased and phosphorylase activity decreased continuously during 120 h of recovery in the treated cells. Rates of 2-deoxyglucose uptake were significantly elevated in the treated cells at 96 and 120 h, averaging 1.4–2 fold above control values. Glycogenin content increased slightly in the treated cells after 48 h (1.2 fold vs. control) and then increased considerably, achieving peak values after 120 h (2 fold vs. control). The results demonstrate two phases of glycogen supercompensation: the first phase depends primarily on activation of glycogen synthase and inactivation of phosphorylase; the second phase includes increases in glucose uptake and glycogenin level. 相似文献

1. Glycogen, glucose, lactate and glycogen phosphorylase concentrations and the activities of glycogen phosphorylase a and acid 1,4-alpha-glucosidase were measured at various times up to 120 min after death in the liver and skeletal muscle of Wistar and gsd/gsd (phosphorylase b kinase deficient) rats and Wistar rats treated with the acid alpha-glucosidase inhibitor acarbose. 2. In all tissues glycogen was degraded rapidly and was accompanied by an increase in tissue glucose and lactate concentrations and a lowering of tissue pH. In the liver of Wistar and acarbose-treated Wistar rats and in the skeletal muscle of all rats glycogen loss proceeded initially very rapidly before slowing. In the gsd/gsd rat liver glycogenolysis proceeded at a linear rate throughout the incubation period. Over 120 min 60, 20 and 50% of the hepatic glycogen store was degraded in the livers of Wistar, gsd/gsd and acarbose-treated Wistar rats, respectively. All 3 types of rat degraded skeletal muscle glycogen at the same rate and to the same extent (82% degraded over 2 hr). 3. In Wistar rat liver and skeletal muscle glycogen phosphorylase was activated soon after death and the activity of phosphorylase a remained well above the zero-time level at all later time points, even when the rate of glycogenolysis had slowed significantly. Liver and skeletal muscle acid alpha-glucosidase activities were unchanged after death. 4. The decreased rate and extent of hepatic glycogenolysis in both the gsd/gsd and acarbose-treated rats suggests that this process is a combination of phosphorolysis and hydrolysis. 5. Glycogen was purified from Wistar liver and skeletal muscle at various times post mortem and its structure investigated. Fine structural analysis revealed progressive shortening of the outer chains of the glycogen from both tissues, indicative of random, lysosomal hydrolysis. Analysis of molecular weight distributions showed inhomogeneity in the glycogen loss; in both tissues high molecular weight glycogen was preferentially degraded. This material is concentrated in lysosomes of both skeletal muscle and liver. These results are consistent with a role for lysosomal hydrolysis in glycogen degradation. 相似文献

Phosphorylase activation reverses during prolonged contractile activity. Our first experiment was designed to determine whether this loss of ability to activate phosphorylase by stimulation of muscle contraction persists following exercise. Phosphorylase activation by stimulation of muscle contraction was markedly inhibited in rats 25 min after exhausting exercise. To evaluate the role of glycogen depletion, we accelerated glycogen utilization by nicotinic acid administration. A large difference in muscle glycogen depletion during exercise of the same duration did not influence the blunting of phosphorylase activation. Phosphorylase activation by stimulation of contraction was more severely inhibited following prolonged exercise than after a shorter bout of exercise under conditions that resulted in the same degree of glycogen depletion. A large difference in muscle glycogen repletion during 90 min of recovery was not associated with a significant difference in the ability of muscle stimulation to activate phosphorylase, which was still significantly blunted. Phosphorylase activation by epinephrine was also markedly inhibited in muscle 25 min after strenuous exercise but had recovered completely in glycogen-repleted muscle 90 min after exercise. These results provide evidence that an effect of exercise other than glycogen depletion is involved in causing the inhibition of phosphorylase activation; however, they do not rule out the possibility that glycogen depletion also plays a role in this process. 相似文献

Glycogen phosphorylase activity in both liver and kidney medulla of rabbit was stimulated in the presence of caffeine by various aminoglycoside antibiotics in the following rank order: gentamicin greater than neomycin greater than amikacin = kanamycin greater than or equal tobramycin, while streptomycin did not affect the enzyme activity. In contrast, in the presence of AMP, the stimulatory action of antibiotics was not observed. Since in the gentamicin-treated rabbits stimulation of glycogen phosphorylase activity by about 30% in both liver and kidney medulla was accompanied by a decrease of liver glycogen content by about 60% it is likely that a decline in liver glycogen level following antibiotic treatment is due to an increased glycogen phosphorylase activity. 相似文献

1) Glycogen is degraded in the abdominal muscle of the shrimp Crangon crangon (Decapoda, Crustacea) during the recovery period following work. The regulation of post-exercise glycogen breakdown and the properties of glycogen phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) have been studied: 2) Glycogen phosphorylase exists as unphosphorylated b-form and phosphorylated a-form, the latter contains 1 molecule phosphate/subunit. Both forms of phosphorylase are dimers, isoenzymes have not been detected. 3) The purified b-form is inactive in absence of AMP and has very low affinities for AMP and Pi. For half-maximum activation 0.33 +/- 0.04 mM AMP is necessary, and the Km-value for Pi at 1 mM AMP is 48 +/- 5 mM. IMP does not affect the activity of the b-form. 4) The a-form is active without effectors, its Km-value for Pi is 5.3 +/- 1.5 mM. The proportion of phosphorylase a increases in vivo, from about 25% at rest, to approximately 90% upon work and remains at this high level during the first minutes of recovery. 5) It is concluded that the glycogenolytic flux in the abdominal muscle of the shrimp even during post-exercise periods depends on the level of the a-form the activity of which is restricted in time and extent by the cytoplasmic Pi concentration (Kamp, G. & Juretschke, H. P. (1987) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 929, 121-127). 相似文献

We have presented evidence suggesting that the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is involved in central regulation of glucose homeostasis. To elucidate this role of the SCN, we examined the effects of its electrical stimulation on glucose metabolism in male Wistar rats. During and shortly after this stimulation, we observed hyperglycemia associated with enhanced hyperglucagonemia but no immediate hyperinsulinemia. In addition, we detected significant increase in liver glycogen phosphorylase alpha activity and significant decrease in the liver glycogen content. These findings suggest that the SCN is important in control of glucose homeostasis through effects on glucagon and insulin secretions and liver glycogen metabolism. 相似文献

We have investigated the effects of insulin on the phosphorylation of glycogen phosphorylase in skeletal muscle. Rat epitrochlearis muscles were incubated in vitro with 32Pi to label cellular phosphoproteins, before being treated with hormones. Phosphorylase, phosphorylase kinase, and glycogen synthase were immunoprecipitated under conditions that prevented changes in their phosphorylation states. Based on measurements of the activity ratio (-AMP/+AMP) and the 32P content of phosphorylase, 4-8% of the phosphorylase in untreated muscles appeared to be phosphorylated. Epinephrine promoted increases of approximately 4-fold in the 32P content and activity ratio. Neither these effects nor the epinephrine-stimulated increases in phosphorylation of glycogen synthase and phosphorylase kinase were attenuated by insulin. However, insulin at physiological concentrations rapidly decreased the 32P content of phosphorylase in muscles incubated without epinephrine. Results from peptide mapping experiments indicate that phosphorylase was phosphorylated at a single site in both control and insulin on phosphorylase represented a decrease in 32P of approximately 50%. By comparison, the 32P content of glycogen synthase and the beta subunit of phosphorylase kinase were decreased by only 20 and 16%, respectively; the 32P content of the kinase alpha subunit was not affected by insulin. The results provide direct evidence that insulin decreases the amount of phosphate in phosphorylase and phosphorylase kinase. These findings have important implications with respect to both the regulation of glycogen metabolism in skeletal muscle and the mechanism of insulin action. 相似文献

Adenovirus-mediated transfer of the muscle glycogen phosphorylase gene into hepatocytes confers altered regulation of glycogen metabolism. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The muscle isozyme of glycogen phosphorylase is potently activated by the allosteric ligand AMP, whereas the liver isozyme is not. In this study we have investigated the metabolic impact of expression of muscle phosphorylase in liver cells. To this end, we constructed a replication-defective, recombinant adenovirus containing the muscle glycogen phosphorylase cDNA (termed AdCMV-MGP) and used this system to infect hepatocytes in culture. AMP-activatable glycogen phosphorylase activity was increased 46-fold 6 days after infection of primary liver cells with AdCMV-MGP. Despite large increases in phosphorylase activity, glycogen levels were only slightly reduced in AdCMV-MGP-infected liver cells compared to uninfected cells or cells infected with wild-type adenovirus. The lack of correlation of phosphorylase activity and glycogen content suggests that the liver cell environment can inhibit the muscle phosphorylase isozyme. This inhibition can be overcome, however, by addition of carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), which increases AMP levels by 30-fold and causes a much larger decrease in glycogen levels in AdCMV-MGP-infected cells than in uninfected or wild-type adenovirus-infected controls. CCCP treatment also caused a preferential decrease in glycogen content relative to glucagon treatment in AdCMV-MGP-infected hepatocytes (74% versus 11%, respectively), even though the two drugs caused equal increases in phosphorylase a activity. Introduction of muscle phosphorylase into hepatocytes therefore confers a capacity for glycogenolytic response to effectors that is not provided by the endogenous liver phosphorylase isozyme. The remarkable efficiency of adenovirus-mediated gene transfer into primary hepatocytes and the demonstration of altered regulation of glycogen metabolism as a consequence of expression of a non-cognate phosphorylase isozyme may have implications for gene therapy of glycogen storage diseases. 相似文献

During starvation, muscle glycogen in Boleophthalmus boddaerti was utilized preferentially over liver glycogen. In the first 10 days of fasting, the ratio of the active‘a’form of glycogen phosphorylase to total phosphorylase present in the liver was small. During this period, the active‘I’form of glycogen synthetase increased in the same tissue. In the muscle, the phosphorylase‘a’activity declined during the first 7 days and increased thereafter while the total glycogen synthetase activity showed a drastic decline during the first 13 days of fasting. The glycogen level in the liver and muscle of mudskippers starved for 21 days increased after refeeding. After 6 and 12 h refeeding, liver glycogen level was 8·5 ± 2·3 and 6·9 ± 4·5 mg·g wet wt 1, respectively, as compared to 5·8 ± l·6mg·g wet wt 1 in unfed fish. Muscle glycogen level after 6 and 12 h refeeding was 0·96±0·76 and 0·82 ± 0·50 mg·g wet wt 1, respectively, as opposed to 0·21 ± 0·12 mg·g wet wt 1 in the 21-days fasted fish. At the same time, activities of glycogen phosphorylase in the muscle and liver increased while the active‘I’form of glycogen synthetase showed higher activity in the liver. Since glycogen was resynthesized upon refeeding, this eliminated the possibility that glycogen depletion during starvation was due to stress or physical exhaustion after handling by the investigator. Throughout the experimental starvation period, the body weight of the mudskipper decreased, with a maximum of 12% weight loss after 21 days. Liver lipid reserves were utilized at the onset of fasting but were thereafter resynthesized. Muscle proteins were also metabolized as the fish were visibly thinner. However, no apparent change in protein content expressed as per gram wet weight was detected as the tissue hydration state was maintained constant. The increased degradation of liver and muscle reserves was coupled to an increase in the activities of key gluconeogenic enzymes in the liver (G6Pase, FDPase, PEPCK, MDH and PC). The increase in glucose synthesis was possibly necessary to counteract hypoglycemia brought about by starvation in B. boddaerti. 相似文献

Muscle power and the associated metabolic changes in muscle were investigated in eight male human subjects who performed four 30-s bouts of maximal isokinetic cycling at 100 rpm, with 4-min recovery intervals. In the first bout peak power and total work were (mean +/- SE) 1,626 +/- 102 W and 20.83 +/- 1.18 kJ, respectively; muscle glycogen decreased by 18.2 mmol/kg wet wt, lactate increased to 28.9 +/- 2.7 mmol/kg, and there were up to 10-fold increases in glycolytic intermediates. External power and work decreased by 20% in both the second and third exercise periods, but no further change occurred in the fourth bout. Muscle glycogen decreased by an additional 14.8 mmol/kg after the second exercise and thereafter remained constant. Muscle adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was reduced by 40% from resting after each exercise period; creatine phosphate (CP) decreased successively to less than 5% of resting; in the recovery periods ATP and CP increased to 76 and 95% of initial resting levels, respectively. Venous plasma glycerol increased linearly to 485% of resting; free fatty acids did not change. Changes in muscle glycogen, lactate, and glycolytic intermediates suggested rate limitation at phosphofructokinase during the first and second exercise periods, and phosphorylase in the third and fourth exercise periods. Despite minimal glycolytic flux in the third and fourth exercise periods, subjects generated 1,000 W peak power and sustained 400 W for 30 s, 60% of the values recorded in the first exercise period.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Multiple signalling pathways are involved in the mechanism by which insulin stimulates hepatic glycogen synthesis. In this study we used selective inhibitors of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) and an allosteric inhibitor of phosphorylase (CP-91149) that causes dephosphorylation of phosphorylase a, to determine the relative contributions of inactivation of GSK-3 and dephosphorylation of phosphorylase a as alternative pathways in the stimulation of glycogen synthesis by insulin in hepatocytes. GSK-3 inhibitors (SB-216763 and Li+) caused a greater activation of glycogen synthase than insulin (90% vs. 40%) but a smaller stimulation of glycogen synthesis (30% vs. 150%). The contribution of GSK-3 inactivation to insulin stimulation of glycogen synthesis was estimated to be less than 20%. Dephosphorylation of phosphorylase a with CP-91149 caused activation of glycogen synthase and translocation of the protein from a soluble to a particulate fraction and mimicked the stimulation of glycogen synthesis by insulin. The stimulation of glycogen synthesis by phosphorylase inactivation cannot be explained by either inhibition of glycogen degradation or activation of glycogen synthase alone and suggests an additional role for translocation of synthase. Titrations with the phosphorylase inactivator showed that stimulation of glycogen synthesis by insulin can be largely accounted for by inactivation of phosphorylase over a wide range of activities of phosphorylase a. We conclude that a signalling pathway involving dephosphorylation of phosphorylase a leading to both activation and translocation of glycogen synthase is a critical component of the mechanism by which insulin stimulates hepatic glycogen synthesis. Selective inactivation of phosphorylase can mimic insulin stimulation of hepatic glycogen synthesis. 相似文献

Leg muscle was biopsied and frozen for storage at -70 degrees C. from 5 wild-type mice, two knocked out acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) gene mice, and seven glycogen synthase plus glucose muscle transporter transgenic mice. All of the wild-type mice had very little muscle glycogen (3.58 +/- 1.67 micromols glucosyl subunits per g muscle), and 52% or more of its glycogen phosphorylase activity without AMP (69% +/- 17% glycogen phosphorylase a). In contrast the GAA knockout and transgenic mice had glycogen ranging from 63 to 297 micromols glucosyl subunits per g muscle, and very little or no glycogen phosphorylase activity without 1.00 mM AMP (4.8% and less glycogen phosphorylase a). This suggests that there is an inverse relationship between mouse muscle phosphorylase a and the muscle's glycogen content. 相似文献

Energy utilization and force generation under anaerobic conditions were studied in electrically stimulated quadriceps femoris muscle of four volunteers. To investigate the effects of intermittent vs. continuous stimulation one leg was stimulated intermittently and the other continuously during 50 s. The same initial force was produced, and biopsy samples were obtained before the stimulation and after 10, 20, and 50 s and analyzed for energy-rich phosphagens, glycolytic intermediates, and phosphorylase. The ATP utilization and glycolysis were greater during intermittent contraction, but glycogenolysis was equal. ATP content decreased to lower values after intermittent contraction (16.4 compared with 19.6 mmol/kg dry muscle after continuous contraction). Force generation was well preserved during continuous contraction but successively decreased after 20 s of intermittent stimulation down to 50% of initial at end of work. The energy cost per unit work was greater during intermittent stimulation and increased with contraction time, whereas it decreased with time during continuous stimulation. The decrease in force generation in intermittent exercise is suggested to be due to the higher energy cost for contraction resulting in greater changes in the intracellular environment with lower ATP and increased H+ and Pi. These changes would decrease both activation of the contractile system and the cross-bridge turnover rate resulting from activation. 相似文献

The phosphorylated form of liver glycogen phosphorylase (alpha-1,4-glucan : orthophosphate alpha-glucosyl-transferase, EC 2.4.1.1) (phosphorylase a) is active and easily measured while the dephosphorylated form (phosphorylase b), in contrast to the muscle enzyme, has been reported to be essentially inactive even in the presence of AMP. We have purified both forms of phosphorylase from rat liver and studied the characteristics of each. Phosphorylase b activity can be measured with our assay conditions. The phosphorylase b we obtained was stimulated by high concentrations of sulfate, and was a substrate for muscle phosphorylase kinase whereas phosphorylase a was inhibited by sulfate, and was a substrate for liver phosphorylase phosphatase. Substrate binding to phosphorylase b was poor (KM glycogen = 2.5 mM, glucose-1-P = 250 mM) compared to phosphorylase a (KM glycogen = 1.8 mM, KM glucose-1-P = 0.7 mM). Liver phosphorylase b was active in the absence of AMP. However, AMP lowered the KM for glucose-1-P to 80 mM for purified phosphorylase b and to 60 mM for the enzyme in crude extract (Ka = 0.5 mM). Using appropriate substrate, buffer and AMP concentrations, assay conditions have been developed which allow determination of phosphorylase a and 90% of the phosphorylase b activity in liver extracts. Interconversion of the two forms can be demonstrated in vivo (under acute stimulation) and in vitro with little change in total activity. A decrease in total phosphorylase activity has been observed after prolonged starvation and in diabetes. 相似文献

Glycolytic regulation during an aerobic rest-to-work transition in dog gracilis muscle 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Glycogen phosphorylase activity and several glycolytic intermediates were measured at rest and after 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, and 180 s of twitch stimulation at 4 Hz in fast-frozen samples of gracilis muscle. During an initial burst of glycolysis (0-5 s) only 3-phosphoglycerate and lactate accumulate. These changes are reversed during the period of low glycolytic flux (5-30 s). During a second burst of glycolysis (30-60 s) most glycolytic intermediates increase. The levels of glycogen phosphorylase a changes in parallel with the initial burst of glycolysis but remain at resting levels throughout the second burst. The phosphoglycerate mutase-enolase steps deviate from equilibrium during the initial burst of glycolysis, suggesting a transiently rate-limiting role. Analysis using a model of phosphofructokinase kinetics indicates that combined changes in cytosolic pH (R. J. Connett, J. Appl. Physiol. 63: 2360-2365, 1987) and free [ADP] and [AMP] can account for the initial burst of glycolysis. The second burst of glycolysis requires other regulatory factors. It is concluded that an initial alkalization is a major regulatory factor in the early burst of glycolysis during a rest-to-work transition in red muscle. 相似文献

1. Glycogen, nucleotides and glycolytic intermediates and products were measured before and during tetanus in the hamstrings-muscle groups of normal (C3H) and phosphorylase kinase-deficient (ICR/IAn) mice. 2. Phosphorylase kinase-deficient muscles contained 3-4-fold more glycogen and sustained a larger (approx. 2-fold), more rapid (11 +/- 2 ng/s faster) and more prolonged glycogenolysis during 120s tetanus despite their lack of phosphorylase a. 3. No significant change in total adenine nucleotide contents occurred during tetanus in either strain, but there was a 60-100-fold rise in IMP concentration to approx. 2mM in both strains. The initial rate of IMP formation was 6-fold more rapid (112 nmol/s per g) in phosphorylase kinase-deficient muscle. 4. Adenylosuccinate content rose to 36 nmol/g in phosphorylase kinase-deficient muscle and to 9 nmol/g in normal muscle at 45s tetanus, but then fell. 5. In phosphorylase kinase-deficient muscle, glucose 6-phosphate, a powerful phosphorylase inhibitor, was 56% of that in normal muscle. 6. The mass-action ratio of the phosphoglucomutase-catalysed reaction [glucose 6-phosphate]/[glucose 1-phosphate] was markedly lower than Keq. (approx. 17) in relaxed muscle of both strains (approx. 5-7), but rose significantly during tetanus to the value for Keq. 7. The data for IMP satisfy the criteria put forward by Rahim, Perrett & Griffiths [(1976) FEBS Lett. 69, 203-206] for a nucleotide activator of phosphorylase b: it should be present at a higher concentration in phosphorylase kinase-deficient muscle, its concentration should rise during muscle work, and it should attain a concentration comparable with its activation constant for phosphorylase b. 相似文献
