Abstract
Background Carbon dioxide (CO2), traditionally viewed as a mere byproduct of cellular respiration, plays a multifaceted role in human physiology beyond simple elimination through respiration. CO2 may regulate the tumor microenvironment by significantly affecting the release of oxygen (O2) to tissues through the Bohr effect and by modulating blood pH and vasodilation. Previous studies suggest hypercapnia (elevated CO2 levels) might trigger optimized cellular mechanisms with potential therapeutic benefits. The role of CO2 in cellular stress conditions within tumor environments and its impact on O2 utilization offers a new investigative area in oncology. Objectives This study aims to explore CO2's role in the tumor environment, particularly how its physiological properties and adaptive responses can influence therapeutic strategies. Methods By applying a structured translational approach using the Work Breakdown Structure method, the study divided the analysis into six interconnected work packages to comprehensively analyze the interactions between carbon dioxide and the tumor microenvironment. Methods included systematic literature reviews, data analyses, data integration for identifying critical success factors and exploring extracellular environment modulation. The research used SMART criteria for assessing innovation and the applicability of results. Results The research revealed that the human body's adaptability to hypercapnic conditions could potentially inform innovative strategies for manipulating the tumor microenvironment. This could enhance O2 utilization efficiency and manage adaptive responses to cellular stress. The study proposed that carbon dioxide's hormetic potential could induce beneficial responses in the tumor microenvironment, prompting clinical protocols for experimental validation. The research underscored the importance of pH regulation, emphasizing CO2 and carbonic acid's role in modulating metabolic and signaling pathways related to cancer. Conclusion The study underscores CO2 as vital to our physiology and suggests potential therapeutic uses within the tumor microenvironment. pH modulation and cellular oxygenation optimization via CO2 manipulation could offer innovative strategies to enhance existing cancer therapies. These findings encourage further exploration of CO2's therapeutic potential. Future research should focus on experimental validation and exploration of clinical applications, emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary and collaborative approaches to tackle current challenges in cancer treatment.

[PMID: 37010782 PMCID: PMC10115720 DOI: 10.1007/s40279-023-01832-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/04/2023]
Abstract
The observation that prior heavy or severe-intensity exercise speeds overall oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text]O2) kinetics, termed the "priming effect", has garnered significant research attention and its underpinning mechanisms have been hotly debated. In the first part of this review, the evidence for and against (1) lactic acidosis, (2) increased muscle temperature, (3) O2 delivery, (4) altered motor unit recruitment patterns and (5) enhanced intracellular O2 utilisation in underpinning the priming effect is discussed. Lactic acidosis and increased muscle temperature are most likely not key determinants of the priming effect. Whilst priming increases muscle O2 delivery, many studies have demonstrated that an increased muscle O2 delivery is not a prerequisite for the priming effect. Motor unit recruitment patterns are altered by prior exercise, and these alterations are consistent with some of the observed changes in [Formula: see text]O2 kinetics in humans. Enhancements in intracellular O2 utilisation likely play a central role in mediating the priming effect, probably related to elevated mitochondrial calcium levels and parallel activation of mitochondrial enzymes at the onset of the second bout. In the latter portion of the review, the implications of priming on the parameters of the power-duration relationship are discussed. The effect of priming on subsequent endurance performance depends critically upon which phases of the [Formula: see text]O2 response are altered. A reduced [Formula: see text]O2 slow component or increased fundamental phase amplitude tend to increase the work performable above critical power (i.e. W´), whereas a reduction in the fundamental phase time constant following priming results in an increased critical power.

Eccentric Cycling Training Improves Erythrocyte Antioxidant and Oxygen Releasing Capacity Associated with Enhanced Anaerobic Glycolysis and Intracellular Acidosis. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:antiox10020285. [PMID: 33668606 PMCID: PMC7918820 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10020285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2021] [Revised: 02/09/2021] [Accepted: 02/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
The antioxidant capacity of erythrocytes protects individuals against the harmful effects of oxidative stress. Despite improved hemodynamic efficiency, the effect of eccentric cycling training (ECT) on erythrocyte antioxidative capacity remains unclear. This study investigates how ECT affects erythrocyte antioxidative capacity and metabolism in sedentary males. Thirty-six sedentary healthy males were randomly assigned to either concentric cycling training (CCT, n = 12) or ECT (n = 12) at 60% of the maximal workload for 30 min/day, 5 days/week for 6 weeks or to a control group (n = 12) that did not receive an exercise intervention. A graded exercise test (GXT) was performed before and after the intervention. Erythrocyte metabolic characteristics and O2 release capacity were determined by UPLC-MS and high-resolution respirometry, respectively. An acute GXT depleted Glutathione (GSH), accumulated Glutathione disulfide (GSSG), and elevated the GSSG/GSH ratio, whereas both CCT and ECT attenuated the extent of the elevated GSSG/GSH ratio caused by a GXT. Moreover, the two exercise regimens upregulated glycolysis and increased glucose consumption and lactate production, leading to intracellular acidosis and facilitation of O2 release from erythrocytes. Both CCT and ECT enhance antioxidative capacity against severe exercise-evoked circulatory oxidative stress. Moreover, the two exercise regimens activate erythrocyte glycolysis, resulting in lowered intracellular pH and enhanced O2 released from erythrocytes.

Eur J Appl Physiol 2020; 121:409-423. [PMID: 33084929 DOI: 10.1007/s00421-020-04518-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2020] [Accepted: 09/25/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The time constant of phase II pulmonary oxygen uptake kinetics ([Formula: see text]) is increased when high-intensity exercise is initiated from an elevated baseline (work-to-work). A high-intensity priming exercise (PE), which enhances muscle oxygen supply, does not reduce this prolonged [Formula: see text] in healthy active individuals, likely because [Formula: see text] is limited by metabolic inertia (rather than oxygen delivery) in these individuals. Since [Formula: see text] is more influenced by oxygen delivery in type 2 diabetes (T2D), this study tested the hypothesis that PE would reduce [Formula: see text] in T2D during work-to-work cycle exercise. METHODS Nine middle-aged individuals with T2D and nine controls (ND) performed four bouts of constant-load, high-intensity work-to-work transitions, each commencing from a baseline of moderate-intensity. Two bouts were completed without PE and two were preceded by PE. The rate of muscle deoxygenation ([HHb + Mb]) and surface integrated electromyography (iEMG) were measured at the right and left vastus lateralis, respectively. RESULTS Subsequent to PE, [Formula: see text] was reduced (P = 0.001) in T2D (from 59 ± 17 to 37 ± 20 s) but not (P = 0.24) in ND (44 ± 10 to 38 ± 7 s). The amplitude of the [Formula: see text] slow component ([Formula: see text]2 As) was reduced (P = 0.001) in both groups (T2D: 0.16 ± 0.09 to 0.11 ± 0.04 l/min; ND: 0.21 ± 0.13 to 0.13 ± 0.09 l/min). This was accompanied by a reduction in ΔiEMG from the onset of [Formula: see text] slow component to end-exercise in both groups (P < 0.001), while [HHb + Mb] kinetics remained unchanged. CONCLUSIONS PE accelerates [Formula: see text] in T2D, likely by negating the O2 delivery limitation extant in the unprimed condition, and reduces the [Formula: see text]As possibly due to changes in muscle fibre activation.

Abstract
Low-output forward flow and impaired maximal exercise oxygen uptake (VO2 max) are hallmarks of patients in advanced heart failure. The continuous-flow left ventricular assist device is a cutting-edge therapy proven to increase forward flow, yet this therapy does not yield consistent improvements in VO2 max. The science of how adjustable artificial forward flow impacts the exercise physiology of heart failure and physical O2 transport between the central and peripheral systems is unclear. This review focuses on the exercise physiology of axial continuous-flow left ventricular assist device support and the impact that pump speed has on the interactive convective and diffusive components of whole-body physical O2 transport and VO2.

Abstract
La afinidad de la hemoglobina (Hb) por oxigeno (O2) es un factor importante que influye en el transporte de este gas, especialmente en hipoxia y en diferentes enfermedades como anemia o fibrosis quística. En la medición de la afinidad se usa la determinación de la curva de disociación Hb:O2. El método presentado para establecer la curva de disociación Hb:O2 (CDO) simplifica los protocolos normalmente utilizados, ya que elimina el requerimiento del equipo específico para equilibrar la sangre con oxígeno en niveles fijos de presión parcial (PO2). Mediante el uso de ecuaciones matemáticas es posible establecer la cinética de saturación de la hemoglobina (SO2) a valores crecientes de PO2. De igual forma, mediante el método se determinan aspectos típicos de la unión Hb: O2 como la dependencia del pH (coeficiente de Bohr) y el tipo de asociación de la proteína con su ligando mediante el diagrama de Hill. En virtud de la simplificación realizada, el método es aplicable en prácticas de laboratorio en población humana y animal, así como en la investigación de diferentes condiciones experimentales.

Abstract
Oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text]o2) measured at the mouth, which is equal to the cardiac output (CO) times the arterial-venous oxygen content difference [C(a-v)O2], increases more than 10- to 20-fold in normal subjects during exercise. To achieve this substantial increase in oxygen uptake [[Formula: see text]o2 = CO × C(a-v)O2] both CO and the arterial-venous difference must simultaneously increase. Although this occurs in normal subjects, patients with heart failure cannot achieve significant increases in cardiac output and must rely primarily on changes in the arterial-venous difference to increase [Formula: see text]o2 during exercise. Inadequate oxygen delivery to the tissue during exercise in heart failure results in tissue anaerobiosis, lactic acid accumulation, and reduction in exercise tolerance. H+ is an important regulatory and feedback mechanism to facilitate additional oxygen delivery to the tissue (Bohr effect) and further aerobic production of ATP when tissue anaerobic metabolism increases the production of lactate (anaerobic threshold). This H+ production in the muscle capillary promotes the continued unloading of oxygen (oxyhemoglobin desaturation) while maintaining the muscle capillary Po2 (Fick principle) at a sufficient level to facilitate aerobic metabolism and overcome the diffusion barriers from capillary to mitochondria ("critical capillary Po2," 15-20 mm Hg). This mechanism is especially important during exercise in heart failure where cardiac output increase is severely constrained. Several compensatory mechanisms facilitate peripheral oxygen delivery during exercise in both normal persons and patients with heart failure.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? Critical power (CP) represents the highest work rate for which a metabolic steady state is attainable. The physiological determinants of CP are unclear, but research suggests that CP might be related to the time constant of phase II oxygen uptake kinetics (τV̇O2). What is the main finding and its importance? We provide the first evidence that τV̇O2 is mechanistically related to CP. A reduction of τV̇O2 in the supine position was observed alongside a concomitant increase in CP. This effect may be contingent on measures of oxygen availability derived from near-infrared spectroscopy. Critical power (CP) is a fundamental parameter defining high-intensity exercise tolerance and is related to the time constant of phase II pulmonary oxygen uptake kinetics (τV̇O2). To test the hypothesis that this relationship is causal, we determined the impact of prior exercise ('priming') on CP and τV̇O2 in the upright and supine positions. Seventeen healthy men were assigned to either upright or supine exercise groups, whereby CP, τV̇O2 and muscle deoxyhaemoglobin kinetics (τ[HHb] ) were determined via constant-power tests to exhaustion at four work rates with (primed) and without (control) priming exercise at ∼31%Δ. During supine exercise, priming reduced τV̇O2 (control 54 ± 18 s versus primed 39 ± 11 s; P < 0.001), increased τ[HHb] (control 8 ± 4 s versus primed 12 ± 4 s; P = 0.003) and increased CP (control 177 ± 31 W versus primed 185 ± 30 W, P = 0.006) compared with control conditions. However, priming exercise had no effect on τV̇O2 (control 37 ± 12 s versus primed 35 ± 8 s; P = 0.82), τ[HHb] (control 10 ± 5 s versus primed 14 ± 10 s; P = 0.10) or CP (control 235 ± 42 W versus primed 232 ± 35 W; P = 0.57) during upright exercise. The concomitant reduction of τV̇O2 and increased CP following priming in the supine group, effects that were absent in the upright group, provide the first experimental evidence that τV̇O2 is mechanistically related to critical power. The increased τ[HHb+Mb] suggests that this effect was mediated, at least in part, by improved oxygen availability.

Abstract
REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY Several studies have indicated that even low-intensity warm-up increases O(2) transport kinetics and that high-intensity warm-up may not be needed in horses. However, conventional warm-up exercise for Thoroughbred races is more intense than those utilised in previous studies of equine warm-up responses. OBJECTIVES To test the hypothesis that warm-up exercise at different intensities alters the kinetics and total contribution of aerobic power to total metabolic power in subsequent supramaximal (sprint) exercise in Thoroughbred horses. METHODS Nine well-trained Thoroughbreds ran until fatigue at 115% of maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) 10 min after warming-up under each of 3 protocols of equal running distance: 400 s at 30% VO2max (LoWU), 200 s at 60% VO2max (MoWU) and 120 s at 100% VO2max (HiWU). Variables measured during exercise were rates of O(2) and CO(2) consumption/production (VO2,VO2), respiratory exchange ratio (RER), heart rate, blood lactate concentration and accumulation rate and blood gas variables. RESULTS VO2 was significantly higher in HiWU than in LoWU at the onset of the sprint exercise and HR was significantly higher in HiWU than in LoWU throughout the sprint. Accumulation of blood lactate, RER, P(a)CO(2) and PvCO2 in the first 60 s were significantly lower in HiWU than in LoWU and MoWU. There were no significant differences in stroke volume, run time or arterial-mixed venous O(2) concentration. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest HiWU accelerates kinetics and reduces reliance on net anaerobic power compared with LoWU at the onset of the subsequent sprint.

Abstract
Metabolic acidosis is a very common finding in critically ill patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Metabolic acidosis in critical care patients is commonly the result of either anaerobic metabolism or failure of excretion of endogenous acid. Other causes include renal or gastrointestinal loss of bicarbonate and the intake of exogenous acids.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether warm-up exercise at different intensities alters kinetics and total contribution of aerobic power to total metabolic power in subsequent supramaximal exercise in horses. ANIMALS 11 horses. PROCEDURES Horses ran at a sprint until fatigued at 115% of maximal oxygen consumption rate (VO(2max)), beginning at 10 minutes following each of 3 warm-up protocols: no warmup (NoWU), 1 minute at 70% VO(2max) (moderate-intensity warm-up [MoWU]), or 1 minute at 115% VO(2max) (high-intensity warm-up [HiWU]). Cardiopulmonary and blood gas variables were measured during exercise. RESULTS The VO(2) was significantly higher in HiWU and MoWU than in NoWU throughout the sprint exercise period. Blood lactate accumulation rate in the first 60 seconds was significantly lower in MoWU and HiWU than in NoWU. Specific cardiac output after 60 seconds of sprint exercise was not significantly different among the 3 protocols; however, the arterial mixed-venous oxygen concentration difference was significantly higher in HiWU than in NoWU primarily because of decreased mixed-venous saturation and tension. Run time to fatigue following MoWU was significantly greater than that with NoWU, and there was no difference in time to fatigue between MoWU and HiWU. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE HiWU and MoWU increased peak values for VO(2) and decreased blood lactate accumulation rate during the first minute of intense exercise, suggesting a greater use of aerobic than net anaerobic power during this period.

Abstract
The advent of balanced solutions for i.v. fluid resuscitation and replacement is imminent and will affect any specialty involved in fluid management. Part of the background to their introduction has focused on the non-physiological nature of 'normal' saline solution and the developing science about the potential problems of hyperchloraemic acidosis. This review assesses the physiological significance of hyperchloraemic acidosis and of acidosis in general. It aims to differentiate the effects of the causes of acidosis from the physiological consequences of acidosis. It is intended to provide an assessment of the importance of hyperchloraemic acidosis and thereby the likely benefits of balanced solutions.

Abstract
Defense of extracellular pH constancy against lactic acidosis can be estimated from changes (Delta) in lactic acid ([La]), [HCO(3)(-)], pH and PCO(2) in blood plasma because it is equilibrated with the interstitial fluid. These quantities were measured in earlobe blood during and after incremental bicycle exercise in 13 untrained (UT) and 21 endurance-trained (TR) males to find out if acute and chronic exercise influence the defense. During exercise the capacity of non-bicarbonate buffers (beta(nbi) = -Delta[La] . DeltapH(-1) - Delta[HCO(3)(-)] . DeltapH(-1)) available for the extracellular fluid (mainly hemoglobin, dissolved proteins and phosphates) amounted to 32 +/- 2(SEM) and 20 +/- 2 mmol l(-1) in UT and TR, respectively (P < 0.02). During recovery beta(nbi) decreased to 14 (UT) and 12(TR) mmol l(-1) (both P < 0.001) corresponding to values previously found at rest by in vivo CO(2) titration. Bicarbonate buffering (beta(bi)) amounted to 44-48 mmol l(-1) during and after exercise. The large exercise beta(nbi) seems to be mainly caused by an increasing concentration of all buffers due to shrinking of the extracellular volume, exchange of small amounts of HCO(3)(-) or H(+) with cells and delayed HCO(3)(-) equilibration between plasma and interstitial fluid. Increase of [HCO(3)(-)] during titration by these mechanisms augments total beta and thus the calculated beta(nbi) more than beta(bi) because it reduces DeltapH and Delta[HCO(3)(-)] at constant Delta[La]. The smaller rise in exercise beta(nbi) in TR than UT may be caused by an increased extracellular volume and an improved exchange of La(-), HCO(3)(-) and H(+) between trained muscles and blood.

Abstract
Oxygen binding to hemoglobin (Hb) depends on allosteric effectors (CO(2), lactate and protons) that may increase drastically in concentration during exercise. The effectors share common binding sites on the Hb molecules, predicting mutual interaction in their effects on Hb (de)oxygenation. We analysed the effects of lactate and CO(2), separately and in combination, on O(2) binding of purified human Hb at 37 degrees C and physiological pH and chloride values. We demonstrate pH-dependent, inhibitory interactions between lactate binding and CO(2) binding (carbamate formation); at pH 7.4, physiological CO(2) tension ( approximately 43 mm Hg) reduced lactate binding more markedly ( approximately 75%), than lactate (50 mM) inhibited carbamate formation ( approximately 25%). In contrast to previous studies on blood and Hb solutions, we moreover find that added lactate neither 'reverses' oxylabile carbamate formation (resulting in lower carbamate levels in deoxyHb than in oxyHb) nor exerts greater allosteric effects on Hb-O(2) affinity than equal increases in chloride ion concentrations.

Abstract
It has been concluded from comparisons of base excess (BE) and lactic acid (La) concentration changes in blood during exercise-induced acidosis that more H+ than La- leave the muscle and enter interstitial fluid and blood. To examine this, we performed incremental cycle tests in 13 untrained males and measured acid-base status and [La] in arterialized blood, plasma, and red cells until 21 min after exhaustion. The decrease of actual BE (-deltaABE) was 2.2 +/- 0.5 (SEM) mmol l(-1) larger than the increase of [La]blood at exhaustion, and the difference rose to 4.8 +/- 0.5 mmol l(-1) during the first minutes of recovery. The decrease of standard BE (SBE), a measure of mean BE of interstitial fluid (if) and blood, however, was smaller than the increase of [La] in the corresponding volume (delta[La](if+blood)) during exercise and only slightly larger during recovery. The discrepancy between -deltaABE and delta[La]blood mainly results from the Donnan effect hindering the rise of [La]erythrocyte to equal values like [La]plasma. The changing Donnan effect during acidosis causes that Cl- from the interstitial fluid enter plasma and erythrocytes in exchange for HCO3(-). A corresponding amount of La- remains outside the blood. SBE is not influenced by ion shifts among these compartments and therefore is a rather exact measure of acid movements across tissue cell membranes, but changes have been compared previously to delta[La]blood instead to delta[La](if+blood). When performing correct comparisons and considering Cl-/HCO3(-) exchange between erythrocytes and extracellular fluid, neither the use of deltaABE nor of deltaSBE provides evidence for differences in H+ and La- transport across the tissue cell membranes.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to ascertain whether the intensity of prior exercise altered the time to exhaustion at critical power (CP). METHODS Eleven participants volunteered to take part in the study (mean +/- SD: VO2max 4.1 +/- 0.5 L x min(-1); age 30.1 +/- 7.2 yr; body mass 74.6 +/- 9.1 kg) and completed three trials to exhaustion at their CP under differing prior exercise conditions: 1) a control trial (CON); 2) a trial preceded by three 60-s efforts at 110% CP (severe); and 3) a trial preceded by three 73-s efforts at 90% CP (heavy). All trials followed a 5-min baseline at 50 W. RESULTS Time to exhaustion was significantly lengthened after prior heavy exercise (1071 +/- 18 s) when compared with CON (973 +/- 16 s, F = 9.53, P = 0.006). However, there was no effect on TTE after prior severe exercise (967 +/- 16 s). Oxygen deficit was significantly reduced from that in CON (3.8 +/- 0.2 L) after prior heavy (3.2 +/- 0.3 L) and prior severe exercise (3.1 +/- 0.3 L, F = 10.95, P = 0.001). Concurrently, there was a significant reduction in the magnitude of the VO2 slow component (SC) in the trials with prior exercise (197 +/- 34 and 126 +/- 19 mL x min(-1) after heavy and severe exercise, respectively) when compared with CON (223 +/- 31 mL x min(-1), F = 9.62, P = 0.006). CONCLUSION Prior heavy exercise does appear to improve the time to exhaustion at CP by approximately 10% and is associated with a reduction in the VO2 SC. However, the reduction in the SC, with no change in performance after prior severe exercise, suggests that a reduced SC may not necessarily lead to improved TTE.

Abstract
Despite limited scientific evidence supporting their effectiveness, warm-up routines prior to exercise are a well-accepted practice. The majority of the effects of warm up have been attributed to temperature-related mechanisms (e.g. decreased stiffness, increased nerve-conduction rate, altered force-velocity relationship, increased anaerobic energy provision and increased thermoregulatory strain), although non-temperature-related mechanisms have also been proposed (e.g. effects of acidaemia, elevation of baseline oxygen consumption (.VO(2)) and increased postactivation potentiation). It has also been hypothesised that warm up may have a number of psychological effects (e.g. increased preparedness). Warm-up techniques can be broadly classified into two major categories: passive warm up or active warm up. Passive warm up involves raising muscle or core temperature by some external means, while active warm up utilises exercise. Passive heating allows one to obtain the increase in muscle or core temperature achieved by active warm up without depleting energy substrates. Passive warm up, although not practical for most athletes, also allows one to test the hypothesis that many of the performance changes associated with active warm up can be largely attributed to temperature-related mechanisms.

Abstract
The characteristics of oxygen uptake (VO2) kinetics differ with exercise intensity. When exercise is performed at a given work rate which is below lactate threshold (LT), VO2 increases exponentially to a steady-state level. Neither the slope of the increase in VO2 with respect to work rate nor the time constant of VO2 responses has been found to be a function of work rate within this domain, indicating a linear dynamic relationship between the VO2 and the work rate. However, some factors, such as physical training, age and pathological conditions can alter the VO2 kinetic responses at the onset of exercise. Regarding the control mechanism for exercise VO2 kinetics, 2 opposing hypotheses have been proposed. One of them suggests that the rate of the increase in VO2 at the onset of exercise is limited by the capacity of oxygen delivery to active muscle. The other suggests that the ability of the oxygen utilisation in exercising muscle acts as the rate-limiting step. This issue is still being debated. When exercise is performed at a work rate above LT, the VO2 kinetics become more complex. An additional component is developed after a few minutes of exercise. The slow component either delays the attainment of the steady-state VO2 or drives the VO2 to the maximum level, depending on exercise intensity. The magnitude of this slow component also depends on the duration of the exercise. The possible causes for the slow component of VO2 during heavy exercise include: (i) increases in blood lactate levels; (ii) increases in plasma epinephrine (adrenaline) levels; (iii) increased ventilatory work; (iv) elevation of body temperature; and (v) recruitment of type IIb fibres. Since 86% of the VO2 slow component is attributed to the exercising limbs, the major contributor is likely within the exercising muscle itself. During high intensity exercise an increase in the recruitment of low-efficiency type IIb fibres (the fibres involved in the slow component) can cause an increase in the oxygen cost of exercise. A change in the pattern of motor unit recruitment, and thus less activation of type IIb fibres, may also account for a large part of the reduction in the slow component of VO2 observed after physical training.

Abstract
The changes in cellular respiration needed to increase energy output during exercise are intimately and predictably linked to external respiration through the circulation. This review addresses the mechanisms by which lactate accumulation might influence O2 uptake (VO2) and CO2 output (VCO2) kinetics. Respiratory homeostasis (a steady state with respect to VO2 and VCO2) is achieved by 3-4 min for work rates not associated with an increase in arterial lactate. When blood lactate increases significantly above rest for constant work rate exercise, VO2 characteristically increases past 3 min (slow component) at a rate proportional to the lactate concentration increase. The development of a similar slow component in VCO2 is not evident. The divergence of VCO2 from VO2 increase can be accounted for by extra CO2 release from the cell as HCO3- buffers lactic acid. Thus the slow component of aerobic CO2 production (parallel to VO2) is masked by the increase in buffer VCO2. This CO2, and the consumption of extracellular HCO3- by the lactate-producing cells, shifts the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve rightward (Bohr effect). The exercise lactic acidosis has been observed to occur after the minimal capillary PO2 is reached. Thus the lactic acidosis serves to facilitate oxyhemoglobin dissociation and O2 transport to the muscle cells without a further decrease in end-capillary PO2. From these observations, it is hypothesized that simultaneously measured dynamic changes in VO2 and VCO2 might be useful to infer the aerobic and anaerobic contributions to exercise bioenergetics for a specific work task.
