Effects of epinephrine and lactate on the increase in oxygen consumption of nonexercising skeletal muscle after aerobic exercise
The purpose of this study was to measure consumption of nonexercising skeletal muscles at rest and after aerobic exercise and to investigate the stimulant factors of consumption.

Summary: | The purpose of this study was to measure
consumption of nonexercising skeletal muscles
at rest and after aerobic exercise and to investigate the stimulant factors of
consumption. In experiment 1, we measured the resting metabolic rate of the finger flexor muscles in seven healthy males by
-magnetic resonance spectroscopy during a 15 min arterial occlusion. In experiment 2, the
of the finger flexor muscles was measured using near infrared continuous wave spectroscopy at rest, immediate postexercise, and 3, 5, 10, 15, and 20 min following a cycling exercise at a workload corresponding to 50 of peak pulmonary
uptake for 20 min. We also monitored deep tissue temperature in the
measurement area and determined catecholamines and lactate concentrations in the blood at rest and immediate postexercise.
at rest was
and
after exercise increased
from the resting values. There were significant correlations between the increase in
and the increase in epinephrine concentration
and between the increase in
and the increase in lactate concentration
These results suggest that epinephrine and lactate concentrations are important
stimulant factors. © |
