The purpose of this study was to examine the Ca2+-Mg2+ myofibrillar ATPase and protein composition of cardiac and skeletal muscle following strenuous activity to voluntary exhaustion. Sprague-Dawley rats (200 g) were assigned to a control and exercised group, with the run group completing 25 m.min-1 and 8% grade for 1 hour. Following activity, the myocardial Ca2+-Mg2+ myofibrillar ATPase activity -pCa relationship had undergone a rightward shift in the curve. Electrophoretic analysis revealed a change in the pattern of cardiac myofibrillar protein bands, particularly in the 38-42 Kdalton region. Enzymatic analysis of myofibrillar proteins from plantaris muscle, revealed no change in Ca2+ regulation following exercise. Electronmicrographic and electrophoretic analysis revealed extensively disrupted sarcomeric structure and a change in the ratio of several plantaris myofibrillar proteins. No difference was observed for myosin: Actin: tropomyosin ratios; however a dramatic reduction in 58 and 95 Kdalton proteins were evident. The results indicate that prolonged running is associated with similar responses in cardiac and skeletal muscle myofibrillar protein compositions. The abnormalities in myofibrillar ultrastructure may implicate force transmission failure as a factor in exercised-induced muscle damage and/or fatigue.

Contracting muscle cells release K ions into their surrounding interstitial fluid, and some of these ions, in turn, enter venous plasma. Thereby, intense or exhaustive exercise may result in hyperkalemia and potentially dangerous cardiotoxicity. Training not only reduces hyperkalemia produced by exercise but in addition, highly conditioned, long-distance runners may show resting hypokalemia that is not caused by K deficiency. To examine the factors underlying these changes, dogs were studied before and after 6 wk of training induced by running on the treadmill. Resting serum [K] fell from 4.2 +/- 0.2 to 3.9 +/- 0.3 meq/liter (P less than 0.001), muscle intracellular [K] rose from 139 +/- 7 to 148 +/- 14 meq/liter (P less than 0.001), and directly measured muscle cell membrane potential (Em) in vivo rose from -92 +/- 5 to -103 +/- 5 mV (P less than 0.001). Before training, resting Em of isolated intercostal muscle in vitro was -87 +/- 5 mV, and after incubation in 10(-4) M ouabain, Em fell to -78 +/- 5 mV. After training, resting Em of intercostal muscle rose to -95 +/- 4, but fell to -62 +/- 4 mV during incubation in 10(-4) M ouabain. The measured value for the Em was not completely explained by the increased ratio of intracellular to extracellular [K] or by the potassium diffusion potential. Skeletal muscle sarcolemmal Na,K-ATPase activity (microM inorganic phosphate mg-1 protein h-1) increased from 0.189 +/- 0.028 to 0.500 +/- 0.076 (P less than 0.05) after training, whereas activities of Mg2+ -dependent ATPase and 5'nucleotidase did not change. In untrained dogs, exercise to the point of exhaustion elevated serum [K] from 4.4 +/- 0.5 to 6.0 +/- 1.0 meq/liter (P less than 0.05). In trained dogs, exhaustive exercise was associated with elevation of serum [K] from 3.8 +/- 0.3 to 4.2 +/- 0.4 (NS). The different response of serum [K] to exercise after training was not explainable by blood pH. Basal insulin levels rose from 7.0 +/- 0.7 microU/ml in the untrained dogs to 9.9 +/- 1.0 microU/ml (P less than 0.05) after training. Although insulin might have played a role in the acquired electrical hyperpolarization, the reduced exercise-produced hyperkalemia after training was not reversed by blockade of insulin release with somatostatin. Although the fundamental mechanisms underlying the cellular hyperpolarization were not resolved, our observations suggest that increased Na-K exchange across the sarcolemmal membrane, the increase of Na,K-ATPase activity and possibly increased electrogenicity of the sodium pump may all play a role in the changes induced by training.

Changes in the concentration of several metabolites and enzymes related to carbohydrate metabolism were measured during the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on a mineral medium containing glucose as the limiting nutrient. When about 50% of the original glucose was used the exponential phase ended and the culture entered a 'transition' phase before the complete exhaustion of glucose. In this transition phase several metabolic changes occurred. cAMP, that decreased along growth, reached a constant value of about 0.7 nmol/g dry weight. A pronounced drop in fructose-6-phosphate-2-kinase activity and in the concentration of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and fructose 1,6-bisphosphate was observed accompanied by a less marked decrease in hexose monophosphates. Trehalase activity also dropped and reached a minimal value at the onset of the stationary phase when synthesis of trehalose began. Glycogen concentration and glycogen synthase activity increased sharply during the transition phase. Plasma membrane ATPase began to increase at the middle of the exponential phase and then, coincident with the glucose exhaustion, a 90% decrease in the measurable activity was observed.

Since Na+,K+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) of pig kidney modified with a fluorescent sulfhydryl reagent, N-[p-(2-benzimidazolyl) phenyl]maleimide, at Cys-964 of the alpha-chain showed ATP-dependent, reversible, and dynamic fluorescence changes (Nagai, M., Taniguchi, K., Kangawa, K., Matsuo, S., Nakamura, S., and Iida, S. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 13197-13202), we studied the conformational change during Na+,K+-ATPase reaction using the modified enzyme. The addition of K+ to the enzyme increased the fluorescence intensity to 2% in the presence of 160 mM Na+ and 3 mM Mg2+ (K0.5 = 16.4 mM). Addition of low concentrations of ATP immediately increased the intensity to 3.2% (K0.5 less than 0.1 microM) to accumulate fully K+-bound enzyme in the presence of 43 mM K+ with Na+ and Mg2+, but further addition of higher concentrations of ATP diminished the increase (K0.5 = 120 microM). After exhaustion of ATP, the fluorescence intensity decreased to -0.4% (K0.5 = 0.3 microM) and -2% (K0.5 = 20 microM), respectively, in the presence of low and high concentrations of ADP produced from ATP. High concentrations of ATP accelerated Na+,K+-ATPase activity with a simultaneous increase in the amount of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme irrespective of the modification. Adenylyl imidodiphosphate and ADP accelerated Na+,K+-ATPase activity in the presence of 2.7 microM ATP by decreasing the extent of the fluorescence without affecting the amount of phosphoenzyme, irrespective of the modification. These data suggest that Na+,K+-ATPase activity was accelerated due to the acceleration of the breakdown of K+-bound enzyme by high concentrations of ATP and ATP analogues.

In 7 male cyclists glycogen synthesis during exercise and rest was studied. Each subject did two exercise trials (A and B), in random order. In both trials, after determining the maximal workload (Wmax), intermittent exercise was given to exhaustion. After the exhaustive exercise and taking a muscle biopsy the subjects either exercised at 40% Wmax for 3 h (trial A) or rested for 3 h (trial B), during which they consumed approximately 2 l of a 25% malto-dextrine drink in both trials. After 3 h rest (trial A) or 3 h of mild exercise (trial B) a second muscle biopsy was taken for total glycogen and histochemistry (ATPase and PAS). Blood glucose and insulin levels were elevated during the first 2 h of exercise (p less than 0.05). Glycogen depletion was most pronounced in type I and to a less extent in type IIA fibers. In trial A muscle glycogen increased from 136 +/- 66 to 199 +/- 71 mmol/kg DW, and in trial B from 145 +/- 56 to 257 +/- 79 mmol/kg DW. During exercise glycogen repletion was restricted to type IIA and IIB fibers, whereas during rest glycogen synthesis occurred both in type I and type II fibers. The present study demonstrates that oral carbohydrate administered during exercise may not only provide substrate for energy metabolism, but can also be utilized for glycogen synthesis in the non-active muscle fibers.

In the process of defining the recruitment of fuel and pathway selection in rainbow trout fast-twitch white skeletal muscle, it was clear that the near-maximal myosin adenosinetriphosphatase activity during a 10-s sprint was supported solely by phosphocreatine hydrolysis. A conservative estimate of the ATP turnover was 188 mumol X g wet wt-1 X min-1. It was not until the rate and force of contraction decreased that the relative contribution of anaerobic glycogenolysis became increasingly important. Over a 10-min period of burst swimming at approximately 120% of maximum aerobic steady-state swimming velocity of trout determined in a Brett-type swim tunnel, fatigue was associated with the near-depletion of glycogen in white muscle. The ATP turnover supported by anaerobic glycogenolysis was 78 mumol X g wet wt-1 X min-1. The glycolytic pathway appeared functional at this time with control sites being identified at hexokinase and phosphofructokinase (PFK-1). PFK-1 did not appear to be inhibited by low muscle pH (pH 6.66). In another exercise protocol lasting 30 min, complete exhaustion was related to glycogen depletion. The sum of all glycolytic intermediates from glucose 6-phosphate to pyruvate at exhaustion decreased by a dramatic 80% compared with the 25% decrease for the 10-min fatigue swimming protocol. This large depletion of glycolytic intermediates was accompanied by an 80% fall in ATP, a 70-80% reduction in the ATP/ADP and phosphorylation potential, and a 2.5-fold increase in the NAD/NADH. Associated with these changes was a marked displacement of the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), and the combined glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase-PGK reactions from thermodynamic equilibrium. As a general conclusion, fatigue and exhaustion should be viewed as a multicomponent biochemical process in response to low glycogen and not leveled at one particular step of the glycolytic pathway.

Respiratory control ratios between 2.0 and 9.0 were obtained by comparison of the respiratory rates of cabbage mitochondria in the presence and in the absence of individual components of the system used to provide ADP and by comparing the rates before and after exhaustion of added ADP. These results indicate that respiration in cabbage mitochondria is controlled by the availability of ADP, which serves as the phosphate acceptor. Pentachlorophenol (PCP), 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), gramicidin and oleic acid inhibited phosphorylation to a greater extent than respiration in the cabbage mitochondria, but these reagents did not stimulate respiration in the absence of a phosphate acceptor. Respiration was stimulated by DNP only in the presence of added ATP.2,4-Dinitrophenol, pentachlorophenol, dicumarol and gramicidin did not stimulate ATPase activity either in the presence or absence of added Mg(2+). Oleic acid stimulated ATPase activity in the presence of added Mg(2+), but did not stimulate respiration even in the presence of added ATP. The ATP-(32)Pi exchange rate was increased many fold in the presence of added Mg(2+). Oleic acid and 2,4-dinitrophenol inhibited the exchange almost completely.

Alterations in the contractile and biochemical properties of fast and slow skeletal muscle were studied in rats following a prolonged swim to exhaustion. The exercise produced glycogen depletion (less than 1 mg/g tissue) in muscles representative of all three fiber types; the isometric contractile properties were altered in the 84% type I soleus (SOL) and the 60% type IIa extensor digitorium longus (EDL) but not in the 100% type IIb superficial region of the vastus lateralis (SVL). Peak tetanic tension (Po) and the rate of tension development and decline all decreased after prolonged exercise in both the SOL and the EDL. The maximal isotonic shortening velocity was highly correlated with the myofibrillar ATPase activity, and both were relatively resistant to fatigue. Furthermore, the Ca2+ sensitivity of the myofibrils was unaffected by exercise in both fast and slow muscle. The Ca2+ uptake capacity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was reduced in both the SOL and the fast-twitch type IIa deep region of the vastus lateralis, whereas the SR ATPase activity was unchanged. Our findings provide evidence that prolonged exercise produces alterations in contractile and biochemical properties of type I and IIa but not type IIb fibers and that muscle fatigue as measured by a decline in Po is not necessarily correlated with glycogen depletion.

Isometric muscle endurance was measured in fourteen physically active men without (placebo) and after acute oral administration of 160 mg propranolol (Inderal). Quadriceps muscle contractions were sustained at 65% maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) to exhaustion. Muscle biopsies were obtained from m. vastus lateralis at rest for subsequent histochemical analysis for myofibrillar ATPase and amylase-PAS in order to determine fiber type composition and capillary density. The time to exhaustion was shorter (p less than 0.01) during beta-blockade (0.82 +/- 0.22) min than placebo (0.90 +/- 0.23) min. Changes in endurance time, induced by beta-blockade, were not correlated with any of the muscle morphological or histochemical variables examined. It is concluded that muscular performance is impaired as a result of beta-blockade on muscle tissue irrespective of any concomitant change in central circulation.

The ATP analogue 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl) adenosine 5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP) was used to study nucleotide site stoichiometry and interactions in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles. The TNP absorption spectrum in the visible region undergoes a specific change upon binding of the nucleotide to SR ATPase. Equilibrium binding was therefore measured by differential spectrophotometry. In parallel experiments, TNP-[gamma-32P]ATP binding was measured directly by radioisotope distribution. The maximum number of nucleotide sites was estimated to be 8 nmol/mg of protein in SR vesicles. These binding sites can be separated into two distinct groups of different affinity. Accordingly, 10-100 microM ATP displaces a maximum of only 4 nmol of TNP-ATP/mg of protein from high affinity sites which are considered to be specific for enzyme catalysis. Free TNP-ATP in aqueous solution yields a weak fluorescence signal which is slightly increased upon binding of the analogue to SR ATPase. However, a pronounced fluorescence enhancement and a spectral change are observed when ATP is added in concentrations permitting partial occupancy of the specific sites by TNP-ATP. This effect is strictly dependent on ATP utilization by the SR ATPase, inasmuch as it requires Ca2+, and it is not produced by adenyl-5'-yl-imidodiphosphate. The fluorescence enhancement is reversible upon exhaustion of added ATP. It is concluded that TNP-ATP acts as a reporter of an ATPase conformational change following enzyme phosphorylation of the catalytic site by ATP, and that the observed conformational change is operative in the mechanism of calcium site translocation for active transport. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the bound analogue to the phosphorylation reaction is likely to be related to nucleotide regulation of enzyme turnover.
