In vivo 31P NMR studies of paraplegics' muscles activated by functional electrical stimulation

The bioenergetics of paralyzed muscles of spastic paraplegic patients under functional electrical stimulation (FES) was studied in vivo using ³¹P NMR. The protocol included rest, 3 min of induced tetanic isometric contraction through surface electrodes and 40 min of recovery. The continuous stimulation, the force recording and the ³¹P NMR measurements were sampled simultaneously inside the whole body imager. Normal values were found for the phosphorous metabolite ratios at rest. During contraction, prominent changes were detected including: a) accumulation of inorganic phosphate (P) accompanied by an unusually strong signal in the phosphomonoester (PME) region, b) phosphocreatine (PCr) decline, and c) a decrease in the intracellular pH. In the following recovery period the physiological state of the muscle was monitored and quantitated by ³¹P NMR. No metabolic and mechanical irreversible damage was detected in the paraplegics' muscles activated by FES under our experimental conditions.

Biological responses to overload training in endurance sports

Summary Five subjects undertook 10 days of twice daily interval training sessions on a treadmill followed by 5 days of active recovery. On days 1, 6, 11, and 16 the subjects were required to undertake a test of submaximal and maximal work capacity on a treadmill combined with a performance test consisting of a run to exhaustion with the treadmill set at 18 km · h^–1 and 1% gradient. Also on these days a pre-exercise blood sample was collected and analysed for a range of haematological, biochemical and immunological parameters. The subjects experienced a significant fall in performance on day 11 which had returned to pretraining levels on day 16. Serum ferritin concentrations were depressed significantly from pretraining concentrations at the conclusion of the recovery period while the expression of lymphocyte activation antigens (CD25⁺ and HLA-DR⁺) was increased both after the training phase and the recovery phase. The number of CD56⁺ cells in the peripheral circulation was depressed at the conclusion of the recovery period. Several parameters previously reported to change in association with overload training failing to reflect the decrease in performance experienced by subjects in this study, suggesting that overtraining may best be diagnosed through a multifactorial approach to the recognition of symptoms. The most important factor to consider may be a decrease in the level of performance following a regeneration period. The magnitude of this decreased performance necessary for the diagnosis of overtraining and the nature of an appropriate regeneration period are, however, difficult to define and may vary depending upon the training background of the subjects and the nature of the preceding training. It may or may not be associated with biochemical, haematological, physiological and immunological indicators. Individual cases may present a different range of symptoms and diagnosis of overtraining should not be excluded based on the failure of blood parameters to demonstrate variation. However, blood parameters may be useful to identify possible aetiology in each separate case report of overtraining. An outstanding factor to emerge from this study was the difficulty associated with an objective diagnosis of overtraining and this is a possible reason why there have been new accounts of overtraining research in the literature.     

“Reducing body”-like inclusions in skeletal muscle in childhood-onset acid maltase deficiency

Summary Unusual inclusions with some of the features of reducing bodies were encountered in the skeletal muscle biopsy of a 2.5-year-old boy with childhoodonset acid maltase deficiency. The biopsy revealed a vacuolar myopathy with lysosomal storage of glycogen and eosinophilic refractile inclusions in myofibers, which appeared dark blue with the menadione-nitroblue tetrazolium reaction. The significance of the association of inclusions with reducing properties in the setting of acid maltase deficiency is discussed.     

Elastic strain energy in the low back muscles during human walking

Summary A simple model of the thorax, pelvis and three columns of the intrinsic lumbar back muscles (=ILBM) was constructed. The model was used to study the length of the ILBM during the different stages of the walking cycle. The length of the right ILBM (especially the lateral column) was largest at right toe off, exactly the stage of the walking cycle in which most force was needed to prevent the torso from falling forwards and laterally.     

Intramuscular pressure,EMG and blood flow during low-level prolonged static contraction in man

Seven men performed one-legged isometric knee-extension at 5% MVC for 1 h. Intramuscular pressure increased with contraction from its resting value of 14 (2–31) mmHg. Some intramuscular pressure recordings stayed at an almost constant level throught the 1 h contraction, but most recordings showed large fluctuations from resting values up to 90 mmHg. The overall mean intramuscular pressure was twice the resting value. In some cases, EMG recordings confirmed that the changes in intramuscular pressure were related to alternating recruitment of various parts of the knee-extensors. Blood flow in the femoral vein increased within 3 min of 5% MVC to a level of 1.58 (1.25-2.22) 1 min^-1 and no significant changes occurred during the 1 h contraction. In two subjects blood flow was measured also in the recovery period, and this decreased almost immediately when the muscle relaxed. It is concluded that during low-level static contractions, the blood supply to the exercising muscle is maintained at a sufficiently high level, and that the alternating recruitment of muscle fibres may result in a heterogeneously distributed blood flow within the contracting muscle. Despite this the muscle was fatigued after the 1 h at 5 % MVC. The rating of perceived exertion (RPE) increased from 1.9 (1–3) at the beginning to 4.5(2–8) at the end of contraction, and MVC was decreased by 12% after the contraction.     

Recovery from short term intense exercise: Its relation to capillary supply and blood lactate concentration

Summary Muscle force recovery from short term intense exercise was examined in 16 physically active men. They performed 50 consecutive maximal voluntary knee extensions. Following a 40-s rest period five additional maximal contractions were executed. The decrease in torque during the 50 contractions and the peak torque during the five contractions relative to initial torque were used as indices for fatigue and recovery, respectively. Venous blood samples were collected repeatedly up to 8 min post exercise for subsequent lactate analyses. Muscle biopsies were obtained from m. vastus lateralis and analysed for fiber type composition, fiber area, and capillary density. Peak torque decreased 67 (range 47–82%) as a result of the repeated contractions. Following recovery, peak torque averaged 70 (47–86%) of the initial value. Lactate concentration after the 50 contractions was 2.9±1.3 mmol·l⁻¹ and the peak post exercise value averaged 8.7±2.1 mmol·l⁻¹. Fatigue and recovery respectively were correlated with capillary density (r=−0.71 and 0.69) but not with fiber type distribution. A relationship was demonstrated between capillary density and post exercise/peak post exercise blood lactate concentration (r=0.64). Based on the present findings it is suggested that lactate elimination from the exercising muscle is partly dependent upon the capillary supply and subsequently influences the rate of muscle force recovery.

Evidence for the existence of different receptor sites for algesic agents at the endings of muscular group IV afferent units

Summary The hypothesis that different receptor sites for algesic agents exist at free nerve endings in skeletal muscle has been tested by administering bradykinin and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) repeatedly in anaesthetized cats and evaluating the response behaviour of single group IV afferent units from the gastrocnemius-soleus muscle.Repeated intraarterial administration of bradykinin at intervals of 1 and 2 min usually elicited fibre responses without tachyphylaxis. Injections of equieffective doses of 5-HT, however, given in the same manner evoked fibre reactions that were strongly tachyphylactic. In units responding to both bradykinin and 5-HT a refractoriness to 5-HT could be induced by repeated injections of this agent without impairing the stimulating potency of bradykinin on the same nerve ending. Such a lack of cross-tachyphylaxis seems to apply also to the effects of histamine on one side and bradykinin or 5-HT on the other.These findings suggest that bradykinin, 5-HT and probably histamine exert their excitatory action on muscular group IV afferent units via different receptor sites.
