Description
Summary:1  Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley 94720; 3  Palo Alto Veterans Affairs Health Care System, Palo Alto, California 94304; 4  Division of Cardiology, University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, Denver, Colorado 80262; and 2  Université Joseph Fourier, Grenoble, France To evaluate the effects of endurance training on the expression of monocarboxylate transporters (MCT) in human vastus lateralis muscle, we compared the amounts of MCT1 and MCT4 in total muscle preparations (MU) and sarcolemma-enriched (SL) and mitochondria-enriched (MI) fractions before and after training. To determine if changes in muscle lactate release and oxidation were associated with training-induced changes in MCT expression, we correlated band densities in Western blots to lactate kinetics determined in vivo. Nine weeks of leg cycle endurance training [75% peak oxygen consumption ( O 2 peak )] increased muscle citrate synthase activity (+75%, P
