Exercise increases TCA intermediate concentrations during low‐calorie diet independent of insulin resistance among women with obesity

Tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates (TCAi) have been proposed to act as myokines that influence energy metabolism. We determined if 2‐weeks of low‐calorie diet with interval exercise (LCD + INT) would increase TCAi more than a low‐calorie diet (LCD). Twenty‐three women were randomized to 2‐weeks...

Description
Summary:Tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates (TCAi) have been proposed to act as myokines that influence energy metabolism. We determined if 2‐weeks of low‐calorie diet with interval exercise (LCD + INT) would increase TCAi more than a low‐calorie diet (LCD). Twenty‐three women were randomized to 2‐weeks of LCD (n = 12, 48.4 ± 2.5 years, 37.8 ± 1.5 kg/m2, ~1200 kcal/d) or LCD + INT (n = 11, 47.6 ± 4.3 years, 37.9 ± 2.3 kg/m2; 60 min/d supervised INT of 3 min 90% & 50% HRpeak). TCAi and amino acids (AA) were measured at 0 min of a 75 g OGTT, while glucose, insulin, and FFA were obtained at 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 min to assess total area under the curve (tAUC180min) and insulin resistance (IR; tAUC180min of Glucose × Insulin). Fuel use (indirect calorimetry) was also collected at 0, 60, 120, and 180 min as was fitness (VO2peak) and body composition (BodPod). Treatments reduced weight (p
