Project description:BackgroundPatients with fibromyalgia (FM) exhibit low peak oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text]O2peak). We aimed to detect the contribution of cardiac output to ([Formula: see text]) and arteriovenous oxygen difference [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] from rest to peak exercise in patients with FM.MethodsThirty-five women with FM, aged 23 to 65 years, and 23 healthy controls performed a step incremental cycle ergometer test until volitional fatigue. Alveolar gas exchange and pulmonary ventilation were measured breath-by-breath and adjusted for fat-free body mass (FFM) where appropriate. [Formula: see text] (impedance cardiography) was monitored. [Formula: see text] was calculated using Fick's equation. Linear regression slopes for oxygen cost (∆[Formula: see text]O2/∆work rate) and [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text]O2 (∆[Formula: see text]/∆[Formula: see text]O2) were calculated. Normally distributed data were reported as mean ± SD and non-normal data as median [interquartile range].Results[Formula: see text]O2peak was lower in FM patients than in controls (22.2 ± 5.1 vs. 31.1 ± 7.9 mL∙min-1∙kg-1, P < 0.001; 35.7 ± 7.1 vs. 44.0 ± 8.6 mL∙min-1∙kg FFM-1, P < 0.001). [Formula: see text] and C(a-v)O2 were similar between groups at submaximal work rates, but peak [Formula: see text] (14.17 [13.34-16.03] vs. 16.06 [15.24-16.99] L∙min-1, P = 0.005) and C(a-v)O2 (11.6 ± 2.7 vs. 13.3 ± 3.1 mL O2∙100 mL blood-1, P = 0.031) were lower in the FM group. No significant group differences emerged in ∆[Formula: see text]O2/∆work rate (11.1 vs. 10.8 mL∙min-1∙W-1, P = 0.248) or ∆[Formula: see text]/∆[Formula: see text]O2 (6.58 vs. 5.75, P = 0.122) slopes.ConclusionsBoth [Formula: see text] and C(a-v)O2 contribute to lower [Formula: see text]O2peak in FM. The exercise responses were normal and not suggestive of a muscle metabolism pathology.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03300635.

Project description:Extracellular matrix adhesion is required for normal epithelial cell survival, nutrient uptake and metabolism. This requirement can be overcome by oncogene activation. Interestingly, inhibition of PI3K/mTOR leads to apoptosis of matrix-detached, but not matrix-attached cancer cells, suggesting that matrix-attached cells use alternate mechanisms to maintain nutrient supplies. Here we demonstrate that under conditions of dietary restriction or growth factor starvation, where PI3K/mTOR signalling is decreased, matrix-attached human mammary epithelial cells upregulate and internalize β4-integrin along with its matrix substrate, laminin. Endocytosed laminin localizes to lysosomes, results in increased intracellular levels of essential amino acids and enhanced mTORC1 signalling, preventing cell death. Moreover, we show that starved human fibroblasts secrete matrix proteins that maintain the growth of starved mammary epithelial cells contingent upon epithelial cell β4-integrin expression. Our study identifies a crosstalk between stromal fibroblasts and epithelial cells under starvation that could be exploited therapeutically to target tumours resistant to PI3K/mTOR inhibition.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to examine the oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text]) kinetics and the energy systems' contribution at 97.5, 100 and 102.5% of the maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) swimming intensity. Ten elite female swimmers performed three-to-five 30 min submaximal constant swimming bouts at imposed paces for the determination of the swimming velocity (v) at 100%MLSS based on a 7 x 200 m intermittent incremental protocol until voluntary exhaustion to find the v associated at the individual anaerobic threshold. [Formula: see text] kinetics (cardiodynamic, primary and slow component phases) and the aerobic and anaerobic energy contributions were assessed during the continuous exercises, which the former was studied for the beginning and second phase of exercise. Subjects showed similar time delay (TD) (mean = 11.5-14.3 s) and time constant (τp) (mean = 13.8-16.3 s) as a function of v, but reduced amplitude of the primary component for 97.5% (35.7 ± 7.3 mL.kg.min-1) compared to 100 and 102.5%MLSS (41.0 ± 7.0 and 41.3 ± 5.4 mL.kg.min-1, respectively), and τp decreased (mean = 9.6-10.8 s) during the second phase of exercise. Despite the slow component did not occur for all swimmers at all swim intensities, when observed it tended to increase as a function of v. Moreover, the total energy contribution was almost exclusively aerobic (98-99%) at 97.5, 100 and 102.5%MLSS. We suggest that well-trained endurance swimmers with a fast TD and τp values may be able to adjust faster the physiological requirements to minimize the amplitude of the slow component appearance, parameter associated with the fatigue delay and increase in exhaustion time during performance, however, these fast adjustments were not able to control the progressive fatigue occurred slightly above MLSS, and most of swimmers reached exhaustion before 30min swam.

Project description:The American Heart Association recommends a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) and some alternative exercise tests to evaluate maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) of youth. Power output has shown a high correlation with VO2 max on a CPET. However, the correlations between mean power output (MPO) for muscular endurance exercises and VO2 max measured from a CPET are not established in young adults. Forty-five volunteers, with an average age of 29.93 ± 7.05 years, from a sample of 1120 military personnel in Taiwan who attended a 2-minute pushup test and a 2-minute sit-up test were included in the current study. These volunteers subsequently underwent a CPET using the Bruce protocol to assess VO2 max. According to the physics rule, MPO (watts) for the muscular endurance test was defined as a product of moving distance and force: [1/5 × body height (m) × numbers performed × body mass (kg) × gravity (9.8 m/s2)]. Pearson correlation analyses were performed. For the 2-min pushups, the correlations (r) between pushup numbers and VO2 max with and without body mass adjustment were 0.541 (P < .01) and 0.188 (P = .21), respectively, while the correlation (r) between MPO and VO2 max with and without body mass adjustment were 0.410 and 0.557 (both P < .01), respectively. For the 2-minute sit-ups, the correlations (r) between sit-up numbers and VO2 max with and without body mass adjustment were 0.529 (P < .01) and 0.291 (P = .052), respectively, while the correlations (r) between MPO and VO2 max with and without body mass adjustment were 0.318 (P = .03) and 0.705 (P < .01), respectively. In military young adults, MPO for both the 2-minute sit-up and the 2-minute pushup tests could be used as alternative field-based methods to estimate VO2 max.

Project description:Microbioreactors have emerged as a new tool for early bioprocess development. The technology has advanced rapidly in the last decade and obtaining real-time quantitative data of process variables is nowadays state of the art. In addition, control over process variables has also been achieved. The aim of this study was to build a microbioreactor capable of controlling dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations and to determine oxygen uptake rate in real time.An oscillating jet driven, membrane-aerated microbioreactor was developed without comprising any moving parts. Mixing times of ?7?s, and kLa values of ?170?h-1 were achieved. DO control was achieved by varying the duty cycle of a solenoid microvalve, which changed the gas mixture in the reactor incubator chamber. The microbioreactor supported Saccharomyces cerevisiae growth over 30 h and cell densities of 6.7?gdcw L-1. Oxygen uptake rates of ?34?mmol L-1 h-1 were achieved.The results highlight the potential of DO-controlled microbioreactors to obtain real-time information on oxygen uptake rate, and by extension on cellular metabolism for a variety of cell types over a broad range of processing conditions. © 2015 The Authors.

Project description:This work reports the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics of metal nanoparticle catalysts between 500 and 600 °C at low oxygen partial pressures. Ex situ and in situ TEM measurements demonstrate catalyzed nanowire growth initially follows linear kinetics; characteristic of being ORR rate limited. The ORR rates of Ag, Au, Cu, Ni, Pd, Rh and Pt measured at 600 °C form a volcano plot versus relative oxidation potential. Cu nanoparticles produce the maximum ORR rate under these conditions.

Project description:One strategy for plants to adapt to low nitrogen (LN) stress is to reduce shoot growth and allocate more N and carbon for root growth. The physiological mechanism underlying the response of leaf growth to LN stress remains largely unknown. In this study, we investigated cell division and elongation in maize leaf growth in response to LN stress using an integrated approach including kinematic growth analysis, tissue-specific RNA-seq dissection and hormone determination.

Project description:A critical issue in brain energy metabolism is whether lactate produced within the brain by astrocytes is taken up and metabolized by neurons upon activation. Although there is ample evidence that neurons can efficiently use lactate as an energy substrate, at least in vitro, few experimental data exist to indicate that it is indeed the case in vivo. To address this question, we used a modeling approach to determine which mechanisms are necessary to explain typical brain lactate kinetics observed upon activation. On the basis of a previously validated model that takes into account the compartmentalization of energy metabolism, we developed a mathematical model of brain lactate kinetics, which was applied to published data describing the changes in extracellular lactate levels upon activation. Results show that the initial dip in the extracellular lactate concentration observed at the onset of stimulation can only be satisfactorily explained by a rapid uptake within an intraparenchymal cellular compartment. In contrast, neither blood flow increase, nor extracellular pH variation can be major causes of the lactate initial dip, whereas tissue lactate diffusion only tends to reduce its amplitude. The kinetic properties of monocarboxylate transporter isoforms strongly suggest that neurons represent the most likely compartment for activation-induced lactate uptake and that neuronal lactate utilization occurring early after activation onset is responsible for the initial dip in brain lactate levels observed in both animals and humans.

Project description:In order to obtain a global view of energy metabolism pathways of the sulfate-reducer Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough and the proteins involved therein whole-genome microarrays were used to compare the transcriptional response of cells grown with hydrogen/sulfate, pyruvate/sulfate, lactate/thiosulfate, and pyruvate with limiting sulfate, relative to growth in standard lactate/sulfate condition. Growth with hydrogen/sulfate showed the largest number of differently expressed genes and the largest changes in expression levels. The most up-regulated energy metabolism genes were those coding for the periplasmic [NiFeSe] hydrogenase, followed by the Ech hydrogenase, and the most down-regulated were genes coding for the Coo hydrogenase. The results point to the involvement of formate cycling and the ethanol pathway during growth on hydrogen, whereas there is evidence for CO cycling during growth on lactate and pyruvate, but not on H2. Growth with thiosulfate showed the hallmarks of a reduced energy status of the cells with down regulation of the ATP synthase and the Qmo and Dsr complexes., whereas growth with pyruvate showed the smallest differences but an increased role for the Ech hydrogenase.that in this case functions in reverse from the case of growth with H2. The multiple periplasmic hydrogenases and formate dehydrogenases, do not display the same regulation pattern showing that their metabolic roles are not totally interchangeable. This result together with the observation that several genes coding for proteins that have not been biochemically characterised were considerably affected in this study, reveals a more complex energy metabolism than previously considered and provides guidance for further studies. Keywords: Growth protocol Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough was cultured at 37°C with pyruvate as the only electron donor (with sulfate as the electron acceptor) to mid-log phase. Cultures were also cultivated similarly using lactate as the sole electron donor to mid-log phase. Gene expression profiles of cultures grown with pyruvate as the electron donor were compared with those of the cultures grown with lactate as the electron donor for sulfate reduction. Total RNA was harvested from three replicate cultures for microarray analysis. RNA extraction, purification, and labeling were performed independently on each cell sample.Two samples of each total RNA preparation were labeled, one with Cy3-dUTP and another with Cy5-dUTP for microarray hybridization (dye swap).
