Creatine kinase(CK) provides ATP buffering in skeletal muscle and is expressed as1) cytosolic myofibrillar CK (M-CK)and 2) sarcomeric mitochondrial CK(ScCKmit) isoforms that differ in their subcellular localization. Wecompared the isometric contractile and fatigue properties of1) control CK-sufficient (Ctl),2) M-CK-deficient (M-CK[/]), and3) combined M-CK/ScCKmit-deficientnull mutant (CK[/]) diaphragm (Dia) todetermine the effect of the absence of M-CK activity on Dia performancein vitro. Baseline contractile properties were comparable across groupsexcept for specific force, which was ~16% lower inCK[/] Dia compared withM-CK[/] and Ctl Dia. During repetitiveactivation (40 Hz, duty cycle), force declined in all threegroups. This decline was significantly greater inCK[/] Dia compared with Ctl and M-CK[/] Dia. The pattern of forcedecline did not differ between M-CK[/] andCtl Dia. We conclude that Dia isometric muscle function is notabsolutely dependent on the presence of M-CK, whereas the completeabsence of CK acutely impairs isometric force generation duringrepetitive activation.

Griffin, M. Pamela. Role for anions in pulmonaryendothelial permeability. J. Appl.Physiol. 83(2): 615-622, 1997.-Adrenergic stimulation reduces albumin permeation across pulmonary artery endothelial monolayers and induces changes in cell morphology that aremediated by Cl flux. Wetested the hypothesis that anion-mediated changes in endothelial cellsresult in changes in endothelial permeability. We measured permeationof radiolabeled albumin across bovine pulmonary arterial endothelialmonolayers when the extracellular anion was Cl,Br,I,F, acetate(Ac), gluconate(G), and propionate(Pr). Permeability toalbumin (Palbumin)was calculated before and after addition of 0.2 mM of thephosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), whichreduces permeability. InCl, thePalbumin was 3.05 ± 0.86 × 106 cm/s andfell by 70% with the addition of IBMX. The initialPalbumin was lowest forPr andAc. InitialPalbumin was higher inBr,I,G, andF than inCl. A permeability ratiowas calculated to examine the IBMX effect. The greatest IBMX effect wasseen when Cl was theextracellular anion, and the order among halide anions wasCl > Br > I > F. Although the level ofextracellular Ca2+ concentration([Ca2+]o)varied over a wide range in the anion solutions,[Ca2+]odid not systematically affect endothelial permeability in this system.When Cl was theextracellular anion, varying[Ca2+]ofrom 0.2 to 2.8 mM caused a change in initialPalbumin but no changein the IBMX effect. The anion channel blockers4-acetamido-4-isothiocyanotostilbene-2,2-disulfonic acid(0.25 mM) and anthracene-9-carboxylic acid (0.5 mM) significantly altered initialPalbumin and the IBMXeffect. The anion transport blockers bumetanide (0.2 mM) and furosemide(1 mM) had no such effects. We conclude that extracellular anionsinfluence bovine pulmonary arterial endothelial permeability and thatthe pharmacological profile fits better with the activity of anionchannels than with other anion transport processes.

Tanaka, Hirofumi, Christopher A. DeSouza, Pamela P. Jones,Edith T. Stevenson, Kevin P. Davy, and Douglas R. Seals. Greater rate of decline in maximal aerobic capacity with age in physically active vs. sedentary healthy women. J. Appl.Physiol. 83(6): 1947-1953, 1997.Using ameta-analytic approach, we recently reported that the rate of declinein maximal oxygen uptake(O2 max) with age inhealthy women is greatest in the most physically active and smallest inthe least active when expressed in milliliters per kilogram per minuteper decade. We tested this hypothesis prospectively underwell-controlled laboratory conditions by studying 156 healthy, nonobesewomen (age 20-75 yr): 84 endurance-trained runners (ET) and 72 sedentary subjects (S). ET were matched across the age range forage-adjusted 10-km running performance. Body mass was positivelyrelated with age in S but not in ET. Fat-free mass was not differentwith age in ET or S. Maximal respiratory exchange ratio and rating ofperceived exertion were similar across age in ET and S, suggestingequivalent voluntary maximal efforts. There was a significant butmodest decline in running mileage, frequency, and speed with advancingage in ET.O2 max(ml · kg1 · min1)was inversely related to age (P < 0.001) in ET (r = 0.82) and S(r = 0.71) and was higher atany age in ET. Consistent with our meta-analysic findings,the absolute rate of decline inO2 max was greater inET (5.7ml · kg1 · min1 · decade1)compared with S (3.2 ml · kg1 · min1 · decade1;P < 0.01), but the relative (%)rate of decline was similar (9.7 vs 9.1%/decade; notsignificant). The greater absolute rate of decline inO2 max in ET comparedwith S was not associated with a greater rate of decline in maximalheart rate (5.6 vs. 6.2beats · min1 · decade1),nor was it related to training factors. The present cross-sectional findings provide additional evidence that the absolute, but not therelative, rate of decline in maximal aerobic capacity with age may begreater in highly physically active women compared with theirsedentary healthy peers. This difference does not appear to be relatedto age-associated changes in maximal heart rate, bodycomposition, or training factors.

Hyde, Richard W., Edgar J. Geigel, Albert J. Olszowka, JohnA. Krasney, Robert E. Forster II, Mark J. Utell, and Mark W. Frampton.Determination of production of nitric oxide by the lower airwaysof humanstheory. J. Appl. Physiol.82(4): 1290-1296, 1997.Exercise and inflammatory lung disorderssuch as asthma and acute lung injury increase exhaled nitric oxide(NO). This finding is interpreted as a rise in production of NO by thelungs (NO)but fails to take into account the diffusing capacity for NO(DNO) that carries NO into thepulmonary capillary blood. We have derived equations to measureNO from thefollowing rates, which determine NO tension in the lungs(PL) at any moment from 1) production(NO);2) diffusion, whereDNO(PL) = rate of removal by lung capillary blood; and3) ventilation, whereA(PL)/(PB  47) = the rate of NO removal by alveolar ventilation(A) and PB is barometric pressure. During open-circuit breathingwhen PL is not in equilibrium,d/dtPL[VL/(PB  47)] (where VL is volumeof NO in the lower airways) = NO  DNO(PL)  A(PL)/(PB  47). When PL reaches asteady state so that d/dt = 0 andA iseliminated by rebreathing or breath holding, then PL = NO/DNO.PL can be interpreted as NOproduction per unit of DNO. Thisequation predicts that diseases that diminishDNO but do not alterNO willincrease expired NO levels. These equations permit precise measurementsof NO thatcan be applied to determining factors controlling NO production by thelungs.

Moon, Jon K., and Nancy F. Butte. Combined heart rateand activity improve estimates of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxideproduction rates. J. Appl. Physiol.81(4): 1754-1761, 1996.Oxygen consumption(O2) andcarbon dioxide production (CO2) rates were measuredby electronically recording heart rate (HR) and physical activity (PA).Mean daily O2 andCO2 measurements by HR andPA were validated in adults (n = 10 women and 10 men) with room calorimeters. Thirteen linear and nonlinear functions of HR alone and HR combined with PA were tested as models of24-h O2 andCO2. Mean sleepO2 andCO2 were similar to basalmetabolic rates and were accurately estimated from HR alone[respective mean errors were 0.2 ± 0.8 (SD) and0.4 ± 0.6%]. The range of prediction errorsfor 24-h O2 andCO2 was smallestfor a model that used PA to assign HR for each minute to separateactive and inactive curves(O2, 3.3 ± 3.5%; CO2, 4.6 ± 3%). There were no significant correlations betweenO2 orCO2 errors and subject age,weight, fat mass, ratio of daily to basal energy expenditure rate, orfitness. O2,CO2, and energy expenditurerecorded for 3 free-living days were 5.6 ± 0.9 ml · min1 · kg1,4.7 ± 0.8 ml · min1 · kg1,and 7.8 ± 1.6 kJ/min, respectively. Combined HR and PA measured 24-h O2 andCO2 with a precisionsimilar to alternative methods.

Yan, Sheng, Pawel Sliwinski, and Peter T. Macklem.Association of chest wall motion and tidal volume responses during CO2 rebreathing.J. Appl. Physiol. 81(4):1528-1534, 1996.The purpose of this study is to investigate theeffect of chest wall configuration at end expiration on tidal volume(VT) response duringCO2 rebreathing. In a group of 11 healthy male subjects, the changes in end-expiratory andend-inspiratory volume of the rib cage (Vrc,E andVrc,I, respectively) and abdomen (Vab,E and Vab,I, respectively) measured by linearizedmagnetometers were expressed as a function of end-tidalPCO2(PETCO2). The changes inend-expiratory and end-inspiratory volumes of the chest wall(Vcw,E and Vcw,I,respectively) were calculated as the sum of the respectiverib cage and abdominal volumes. The magnetometer coils were placed atthe level of the nipples and 1-2 cm above the umbilicus andcalibrated during quiet breathing against theVT measured from apneumotachograph. TheVrc,E/PETCO2 slope was quite variable among subjects. It was significantly positive (P < 0.05) in fivesubjects, significantly negative in four subjects(P < 0.05), and not different fromzero in the remaining two subjects. TheVab,E/PETCO2slope was significantly negative in all subjects(P < 0.05) with a much smallerintersubject variation, probably suggesting a relatively more uniformrecruitment of abdominal expiratory muscles and a variable recruitmentof rib cage muscles during CO2rebreathing in different subjects. As a group, the meanVrc,E/PETCO2,Vab,E/PETCO2, andVcw,E/PETCO2slopes were 0.010 ± 0.034, 0.030 ± 0.007, and0.020 ± 0.032 l / Torr, respectively;only theVab,E/PETCO2 slope was significantly different from zero. More interestingly, theindividualVT/PETCO2slope was negatively associated with theVrc,E/PETCO2(r = 0.68,P = 0.021) and Vcw,E/PETCO2slopes (r = 0.63,P = 0.037) but was not associated withtheVab,E/PETCO2slope (r = 0.40, P = 0.223). There was no correlation oftheVrc,E/PETCO2 andVcw,E/PETCO2slopes with age, body size, forced expiratory volume in 1 s, orexpiratory time. The groupVab,I/PETCO2 slope (0.004 ± 0.014 l / Torr) was not significantlydifferent from zero despite theVT nearly being tripled at theend of CO2 rebreathing. Inconclusion, the individual VTresponse to CO2, althoughindependent of Vab,E, is a function ofVrc,E to the extent that as theVrc,E/PETCO2slope increases (more positive) among subjects, theVT response toCO2 decreases. These results maybe explained on the basis of the respiratory muscle actions andinteractions on the rib cage.

Fitzgerald, Margaret D., Hirofumi Tanaka, Zung V. Tran, andDouglas R. Seals. Age-related declines in maximal aerobic capacityin regularly exercising vs. sedentary women: a meta-analysis. J. Appl. Physiol. 83(1): 160-165, 1997.Our purpose was to determine the relationship between habitualaerobic exercise status and the rate of decline in maximal aerobiccapacity across the adult age range in women. A meta-analytic approachwas used in which mean maximal oxygen consumption(O2 max) values fromfemale subject groups (ages 18-89 yr) were obtained from thepublished literature. A total of 239 subject groups from 109 studiesinvolving 4,884 subjects met the inclusion criteria and werearbitrarily separated into sedentary (groups = 107; subjects = 2,256),active (groups = 69; subjects = 1,717), and endurance-trained (groups = 63; subjects = 911) populations.O2 max averaged 29.7 ± 7.8, 38.7 ± 9.2, and 52.0 ± 10.5 ml · kg1 · min1,respectively, and was inversely related to age within each population (r = 0.82 to 0.87, allP < 0.0001). The rate of decline inO2 max withincreasing subject group age was lowest in sedentary women (3.5ml · kg1 · min1· decade1), greater inactive women (4.4ml · kg1 · min1· decade1), andgreatest in endurance-trained women (6.2ml · kg1 · min1 · decade1)(all P < 0.001 vs. each other). Whenexpressed as percent decrease from mean levels at age ~25 yr, therates of decline inO2 max were similarin the three populations (10.0 to 10.9%/decade). Therewas no obvious relationship between aerobic exercise status and therate of decline in maximal heart rate with age. The results of thiscross-sectional study support the hypothesis that, in contrast to theprevailing view, the rate of decline in maximal aerobic capacity withage is greater, not smaller, in endurance-trained vs. sedentary women.The greater rate of decline inO2 max in endurance-trained populations may be related to their higher values asyoung adults (baseline effect) and/or to greater age-related reductions in exercise volume; however, it does not appear to berelated to a greater rate of decline in maximal heart rate with age.

To simulate theimmediate hemodynamic effect of negative intrathoracic pressure duringobstructive apneas in congestive heart failure (CHF), without inducingconfounding factors such as hypoxia and arousals from sleep, eightawake patients performed, at random, 15-s Mueller maneuvers (MM) attarget intrathoracic pressures of 20 (MM 20) and40 cmH2O (MM 40),confirmed by esophageal pressure, and 15-s breath holds, as apneic timecontrols. Compared with quiet breathing, at baseline, before theseinterventions, the immediate effects [first 5 cardiac cycles(SD), P values refer to MM 40compared with breath holds] of apnea, MM 20, and MM 40 were, for left ventricular (LV) systolic transmural pressure (Ptm), 1.0 ± 1.9, 7.2 ± 3.5, and 11.3 ± 6.8 mmHg(P < 0.01); for systolic bloodpressure (SBP), 2.9 ± 2.6, 5.5 ± 3.4, and 12.1 ± 6.8 mmHg (P < 0.01); and forstroke volume (SV) index, 0.4 ± 2.8, 4.1 ± 2.8, and6.9 ± 2.3 ml/m2(P < 0.001), respectively.Corresponding values over the last five cardiac cycles were for LVPtm6.4 ± 4.4, 5.4 ± 6.6, and 4.5 ± 9.1 mmHg (P < 0.01); for SBP6.9 ± 4.2, 8.2 ± 7.7, and 24.2 ± 6.9 mmHg (P < 0.01); and for SVindex 0.4 ± 2.1, 5.2 ± 2.8, and 9.2 ± 4.8 ml/m2(P < 0.001), respectively.Thus, in CHF patients, the initial hemodynamic response to thegeneration of negative intrathoracic pressure includes an immediateincrease in LV afterload and an abrupt fall in SV. The magnitude ofresponse is proportional to the intensity of the MM stimulus. By theend of a 15-s MM 40, LVPtm falls below baseline values, yet SVand SBP do not recover. Thus, when 40cmH2O intrathoracic pressure issustained, additional mechanisms, such as a drop in LV preload due toventricular interaction, are engaged, further reducing SV. The neteffect of MM 40 was a 33% reduction in SV index (from 27 to 18 ml/min2), and a 21% reductionin SBP (from 121 to 96 mmHg). Obstructive apneas can have adverseeffects on systemic and, possibly, coronary perfusion in CHF throughdynamic mechanisms that are both stimulus and timedependent.

Treppo, Steven, Srboljub M. Mijailovich, and José G. Venegas. Contributions of pulmonary perfusion and ventilation toheterogeneity in A/measured by PET. J. Appl. Physiol. 82(4): 1163-1176, 1997. To estimate the contributions of the heterogeneity in regionalperfusion () and alveolar ventilation(A) to that of ventilation-perfusionratio (A/), we haverefined positron emission tomography (PET) techniques to image localdistributions of andA per unit of gas volume content(s and sA,respectively) and VA/ indogs. sA was assessed in two ways:1) the washout of 13NN tracer after equilibrationby rebreathing (sAi), and2) the ratio of an apneic image after a bolus intravenousinfusion of 13NN-saline solution to an image collectedduring a steady-state intravenous infusion of the same solution(sAp).sAp was systematically higher than sAi in allanimals, and there was a high spatial correlation betweens andsAp in both body positions(mean correlation was 0.69 prone and 0.81 supine) suggesting thatventilation to well-perfused units was higher than to those poorlyperfused. In the prone position, the spatial distributions ofs, sAp, and A/ were fairlyuniform with no significant gravitational gradients; however, in thesupine position, these variables were significantly more heterogeneous,mostly because of significant gravitational gradients (15, 5.5, and10%/cm, respectively) accounting for 73, 33, and 66% of thecorresponding coefficient of variation (CV)2 values. Weconclude that, in the prone position, gravitational forces in blood andlung tissues are largely balanced out by dorsoventral differences inlung structure. In the supine position, effects of gravity andstructure become additive, resulting in substantial gravitationalgradients in s andsAp, with the higherheterogeneity inA/ caused by agravitational gradient in s, only partially compensated by that in sA.

Acclimatization to altitude involves an increase in the acutehypoxic ventilatory response (AHVR). Because low-dose dopamine decreases AHVR and domperidone increases AHVR, the increase in AHVR ataltitude may be generated by a decrease in peripheral dopaminergicactivity. The AHVR of nine subjects was determined with and without aprior period of 8 h of isocapnic hypoxia under each of threepharmacological conditions: 1)control, with no drug administered;2) dopamine (3 µg · min1 · kg1);and 3) domperidone (Motilin, 40 mg).AHVR increased after hypoxia (P  0.001). Dopaminedecreased (P  0.01), and domperidone increased (P  0.005) AHVR. The effect of both drugs on AHVR appearedlarger after hypoxia, an observation supported by a significantinteraction between prior hypoxia and drug in the analysis of variance(P  0.05). Although the increasedeffect of domperidone after hypoxia of 0.40 l · min1 · %saturation1[95% confidence interval (CI) 0.11 to 0.92 l · min1 · %1]did not reach significance, the lower limit for this confidence interval suggests that little of the increase in AHVR after sustained hypoxia was brought about by a decrease in peripheral dopaminergic inhibition.

Hardarson, Thorir, Jon O. Skarphedinsson, and TorarinnSveinsson. Importance of the lactate anion in control ofbreathing. J. Appl. Physiol. 84(2):411-416, 1998.The purpose of this study was to examine theeffects of raising the arterialLa andK+ levels on minute ventilation(E) in rats. EitherLa or KCl solutions wereinfused in anesthetized spontaneously breathing Wistar rats to raisethe respective ion arterial concentration ([La] and[K+]) gradually tolevels similar to those observed during strenuous exercise.E, blood pressure, and heart rate wererecorded continuously, and arterial[La],[K+], pH, and bloodgases were repeatedly measured from blood samples. To prevent changesin pH during the Lainfusions, a solution of sodium lactate and lactic acid was used. Raising [La] to13.2 ± 0.6 (SE) mM induced a 47.0 ± 4.0% increase inE without any concomitant changes ineither pH or PCO2. Raising[K+] to 7.8 ± 0.11 mM resulted in a 20.3 ± 5.28% increase inE without changes in pH. Thus ourresults show that Laitself, apart from lactic acidosis, may be important in increasing E during strenuous exercise, and weconfirm earlier results regarding the role of arterial[K+] in the control ofE during exercise.

Tyler, Catherine M., Lorraine C. Golland, David L. Evans,David R. Hodgson, and Reuben J. Rose. Changes in maximum oxygenuptake during prolonged training, overtraining, and detraining inhorses. J. Appl. Physiol. 81(5):2244-2249, 1996.Thirteen standardbred horses were trained asfollows: phase 1 (endurance training, 7 wk),phase 2 (high-intensity training, 9 wk),phase 3 (overload training, 18 wk), andphase 4 (detraining, 12 wk). Inphase 3, the horses were divided intotwo groups: overload training (OLT) and control (C). The OLT groupexercised at greater intensities, frequencies, and durations than groupC. Overtraining occurred after 31 wk of training and was defined as asignificant decrease in treadmill run time in response to astandardized exercise test. In the OLT group, there was a significantdecrease in body weight (P < 0.05).From pretraining values of 117 ± 2 (SE)ml · kg1 · min1,maximal O2 uptake(O2 max) increased by15% at the end of phase 1, and when signs of overtraining werefirst seen in the OLT group,O2 max was 29%higher (151 ± 2 ml · kg1 · min1in both C and OLT groups) than pretraining values. There was nosignificant reduction inO2 max until after 6 wk detraining whenO2 max was 137 ± 2 ml · kg1 · min1.By 12 wk detraining, meanO2 max was134 ± 2 ml · kg1 · min1,still 15% above pretraining values. When overtraining developed, O2 max was notdifferent between C and OLT groups, but maximal values forCO2 production (147 vs. 159 ml · kg1 · min1)and respiratory exchange ratio (1.04 vs. 1.11) were lower in the OLTgroup. Overtraining was not associated with a decrease inO2 max and, afterprolonged training, decreases inO2 max occurredslowly during detraining.

Pulmonary blood flow redistribution by increased gravitational force   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
This study was undertaken to assess theinfluence of gravity on the distribution of pulmonary blood flow (PBF)using increased inertial force as a perturbation. PBF was studied inunanesthetized swine exposed toGx (dorsal-to-ventraldirection, prone position), where G is the magnitude of the force ofgravity at the surface of the Earth, on the Armstrong LaboratoryCentrifuge at Brooks Air Force Base. PBF was measured using 15-µmfluorescent microspheres, a method with markedly enhanced spatialresolution. Each animal was exposed randomly to 1, 2, and3 Gx. Pulmonary vascularpressures, cardiac output, heart rate, arterial blood gases, and PBFdistribution were measured at each G level. Heterogeneity of PBFdistribution as measured by the coefficient of variation of PBFdistribution increased from 0.38 ± 0.05 to 0.55 ± 0.11 to0.72 ± 0.16 at 1, 2, and 3Gx, respectively. At 1Gx, PBF was greatest in theventral and cranial and lowest in the dorsal and caudal regions of thelung. With increased Gx,this gradient was augmented in both directions. Extrapolation of thesevalues to 0 G predicts a slight dorsal (nondependent) region dominanceof PBF and a coefficient of variation of 0.22 in microgravity. Analysisof variance revealed that a fixed component (vascular structure)accounted for 81% and nonstructure components (including gravity)accounted for the remaining 19% of the PBF variance across the entireexperiment (all 3 gravitational levels). The results are inconsistentwith the predictions of the zone model.

Physiol.82(1): 63-69, 1997.The relationships between muscle capillarization, estimated O2diffusion distance from capillary to mitochondria, andO2 uptake(O2) kineticswere studied in 11 young (mean age, 25.9 yr) and 9 old (mean age, 66.0 yr) adults. O2kinetics were determined by calculating the time constants () forthe phase 2 O2 adjustment to andrecovery from the average of 12 repeats of a 6-min, moderate-intensityplantar flexion exercise. Muscle capillarization was determined fromcross sections of biopsy material taken from lateral gastrocnemius.Young and old groups had similarO2 kinetics(O2-on = 44 vs. 48 s;O2-off = 33 vs. 44 s, for young and old, respectively), muscle capillarization, andestimated O2 diffusion distances.Muscle capillarization, expressed as capillary density or averagenumber of capillary contacts per fiber/average fiber area, and theestimates of diffusion distance were significantly correlated toO2-off kinetics in theyoung (r = 0.68 to 0.83;P < 0.05). We conclude that1) capillarization andO2 kinetics during exerciseof a muscle group accustomed to everyday activity (e.g., walking) arewell maintained in old individuals, and2) in the young, recovery of O2 after exercise isfaster, with a greater capillary supply over a given muscle fiber areaor shorter O2 diffusion distances.

Repetitiveisometric tetanic contractions (1/s) of the caninegastrocnemius-plantaris muscle were studied either at optimal length(Lo) or shortlength (Ls;~0.9 · Lo),to determine the effects of initial length on mechanical and metabolicperformance in situ. Respective averages of mechanical and metabolicvariables were(Lo vs.Ls, allP < 0.05) passive tension (preload) = 55 vs. 6 g/g, maximal active tetanic tension(Po) = 544 vs. 174 (0.38 · Po)g/g, maximal blood flow () = 2.0 vs. 1.4 ml · min1 · g1,and maximal oxygen uptake(O2) = 12 vs. 9 µmol · min1 · g1.Tension at Lodecreased to0.64 · Po over20 min of repetitive contractions, demonstrating fatigue; there were nosignificant changes in tension atLs. In separatemuscles contracting atLo, was set to that measured atLs (1.1 ml · min1 · g1),resulting in decreased O2(7 µmol · min1 · g1),and rapid fatigue, to0.44 · Po. Thesedata demonstrate that 1)muscles at Lohave higher andO2 values than those at Ls;2) fatigue occurs atLo with highO2, adjusting metabolic demand (tension output) to match supply; and3) the lack of fatigue atLs with lowertension, , andO2 suggestsadequate matching of metabolic demand, set low by shortmuscle length, with supply optimized by low preload. Thesedifferences in tension andO2 betweenLo andLs groupsindicate that muscles contracting isometrically at initial lengthsshorter than Loare working under submaximal conditions.

Ten subjects performed transitions to a workrate calculated to require aO2 equal to 50% betweenthe estimated lactate (Lac) threshold and maximalO2 (50%).Nine subjects consented to a muscle biopsy of the vastus lateralis. Toenhance the influence of differences in fiber type among subjects,transitions were made while subjects were pedaling at 45, 60, 75, and90 rpm in different trials. Baseline O2 was designed to besimilar at the different pedal rates by adjusting baseline work ratewhile the absolute increase in work rate above the baseline was thesame. The O2 response after the onset of exercise was described by a three-exponential model. Therelative magnitude of the slow component at the end of 8-min exercisewas significantly negatively correlated with %type I fibers at everypedal rate (r = 0.64 to 0.83, P < 0.05-0.01). Furthermore,the gain of the fast component forO2 (asml · min1 · W1)was positively correlated with the %type I fibers across pedal rates(r = 0.69-0.83). Increase inpedal rate was associated with decreased relative stress of theexercise but did not affect the relationships between%fiber type and O2parameters. The relative contribution of the slow component was alsosignificantly negatively correlated with maximalO2(r = 0.65), whereas the gainfor the fast component was positively associated(r = 0.68-0.71 across rpm). Theamplitude of the slow component was significantly correlated with netend-exercise Lac at all four pedal rates(r = 0.64-0.84), but Lac was notcorrelated with %type I (P > 0.05).We conclude that fiber type distribution significantly affects both thefast and slow components ofO2 during heavy exerciseand that fiber type and fitness may have both codependent andindependent influences on the metabolic and gas-exchange responses toheavy exercise.

Tantucci, C., P. Bottini, M. L. Dottorini, E. Puxeddu, G. Casucci, L. Scionti, and C. A. Sorbini. Ventilatory response toexercise in diabetic subjects with autonomic neuropathy.J. Appl. Physiol. 81(5):1978-1986, 1996.We have used diabetic autonomic neuropathy as amodel of chronic pulmonary denervation to study the ventilatoryresponse to incremental exercise in 20 diabetic subjects, 10 with(Dan+) and 10 without (Dan) autonomic dysfunction, and in 10 normal control subjects. Although both Dan+ and Dan subjectsachieved lower O2 consumption andCO2 production(CO2) thancontrol subjects at peak of exercise, they attained similar values ofeither minute ventilation(E) oradjusted ventilation (E/maximalvoluntary ventilation). The increment of respiratory rate withincreasing adjusted ventilation was much higher in Dan+ than inDan and control subjects (P < 0.05). The slope of the linearE/CO2relationship was 0.032 ± 0.002, 0.027 ± 0.001 (P < 0.05), and 0.025 ± 0.001 (P < 0.001) ml/min inDan+, Dan, and control subjects, respectively. Bothneuromuscular and ventilatory outputs in relation to increasingCO2 were progressivelyhigher in Dan+ than in Dan and control subjects. At peak ofexercise, end-tidal PCO2 was muchlower in Dan+ (35.9 ± 1.6 Torr) than in Dan (42.1 ± 1.7 Torr; P < 0.02) and control (42.1 ± 0.9 Torr; P < 0.005) subjects.We conclude that pulmonary autonomic denervation affects ventilatoryresponse to stressful exercise by excessively increasing respiratoryrate and alveolar ventilation. Reduced neural inhibitory modulationfrom sympathetic pulmonary afferents and/or increasedchemosensitivity may be responsible for the higher inspiratoryoutput.

Dysoxia canbe defined as ATP flux decreasing in proportion toO2 availability with preserved ATPdemand. Hepatic venous -hydroxybutyrate-to-acetoacetate ratio(-OHB/AcAc) estimates liver mitochondrial NADH/NAD and may detectthe onset of dysoxia. During partial dysoxia (as opposed to anoxia),however, flow may be adequate in some liver regions, diluting effluentfrom dysoxic regions, thereby rendering venous -OHB/AcAc unreliable.To address this concern, we estimated tissue ATP whilegradually reducing liver blood flow of swine to zero in a nuclearmagnetic resonance spectrometer. ATP flux decreasing withO2 availability was taken asO2 uptake(O2) decreasing inproportion to O2 delivery(O2);and preserved ATP demand was taken as increasingPi/ATP.O2, tissuePi/ATP, and venous -OHB/AcAcwere plotted againstO2to identify critical inflection points. Tissue dysoxia required meanO2for the group to be critical for bothO2 and forPi/ATP. CriticalO2values for O2 andPi/ATP of 4.07 ± 1.07 and 2.39 ± 1.18 (SE) ml · 100 g1 · min1,respectively, were not statistically significantly different but notclearly the same, suggesting the possibility that dysoxia might havecommenced after O2 begandecreasing, i.e., that there could have been"O2 conformity." CriticalO2for venous -OHB/AcAc was 2.44 ± 0.46 ml · 100 g1 · min1(P = NS), nearly the same as that forPi/ATP, supporting venous -OHB/AcAc as a detector of dysoxia. All issues considered, tissue mitochondrial redox state seems to be an appropriate detector ofdysoxia in liver.

Respiratory muscle work compromises leg blood flow during maximal exercise   总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10  
Harms, Craig A., Mark A. Babcock, Steven R. McClaran, DavidF. Pegelow, Glenn A. Nickele, William B. Nelson, and Jerome A. Dempsey.Respiratory muscle work compromises leg blood flow during maximalexercise. J. Appl. Physiol.82(5): 1573-1583, 1997.We hypothesized that duringexercise at maximal O2 consumption (O2 max),high demand for respiratory muscle blood flow() would elicit locomotor muscle vasoconstrictionand compromise limb . Seven male cyclists(O2 max 64 ± 6 ml · kg1 · min1)each completed 14 exercise bouts of 2.5-min duration atO2 max on a cycleergometer during two testing sessions. Inspiratory muscle work waseither 1) reduced via aproportional-assist ventilator, 2)increased via graded resistive loads, or3) was not manipulated (control).Arterial (brachial) and venous (femoral) blood samples, arterial bloodpressure, leg (legs;thermodilution), esophageal pressure, andO2 consumption(O2) weremeasured. Within each subject and across all subjects, at constantmaximal work rate, significant correlations existed(r = 0.74-0.90;P < 0.05) between work of breathing(Wb) and legs (inverse), leg vascular resistance (LVR), and leg O2(O2 legs;inverse), and between LVR and norepinephrine spillover. Mean arterialpressure did not change with changes in Wb nor did tidal volume orminute ventilation. For a ±50% change from control in Wb,legs changed 2 l/min or 11% of control, LVRchanged 13% of control, and O2extraction did not change; thusO2 legschanged 0.4 l/min or 10% of control. TotalO2 max was unchangedwith loading but fell 9.3% with unloading; thusO2 legsas a percentage of totalO2 max was 81% incontrol, increased to 89% with respiratory muscle unloading, anddecreased to 71% with respiratory muscle loading. We conclude that Wbnormally incurred during maximal exercise causes vasoconstriction inlocomotor muscles and compromises locomotor muscle perfusion andO2.
