Abstract
In children, exercise modulates systemic anabolism, muscle growth, and overall physiological development through the growth hormone (GH)-insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) axis. GH secretion, at rest and during exercise, changes with age and maturational status and can be blunted by hyperlipidemia and obesity, with possible negative effects on physiological growth. However, little is known about the effect of progressively more severe pediatric obesity on the GH response to exercise and its relationship to pubertal status. We therefore studied 48 early- or late-pubertal obese children [body mass index (BMI) >95th percentile, separated in tertiles with progressively greater BMI] and 42 matched controls (BMI <85th percentile), who performed ten 2-min cycling bouts at approximately 80% of maximal O2 consumption, separated by 1-min rest intervals. Plasma GH and IGF-I were measured at baseline and end exercise. GH responses were systematically blunted in obese children, with more pronounced blunting paralleling increasing BMI. Although overall the GH response to exercise was greater in late-pubertal than in younger children, this blunting pattern was observed in early- and late-pubertal children. Our results reveal insight into the interaction between pediatric obesity and key modulators of physiological growth and development and underscore the necessity of optimizing physical activity strategies for specific pediatric dysmetabolic conditions.

Abstract
This study examined the effects of different work - rest durations during 40 min intermittent treadmill exercise and subsequent running performance. Eight males (mean +/- s: age 24.3 +/- 2.0 years, body mass 79.4 +/- 7.0 kg, height 1.77 +/- 0.05 m) undertook intermittent exercise involving repeated sprints at 120% of the speed at which maximal oxygen uptake (nu-VO2max) was attained with passive recovery between each one. The work - rest ratio was constant at 1:1.5 with trials involving short (6:9 s), medium (12:18 s) or long (24:36 s) work - rest durations. Each trial was followed by a performance run to volitional exhaustion at 150% nu-VO2max. After 40 min, mean exercise intensity was greater during the long (68.4 +/- 9.3%) than the short work - rest trial (54.9 +/- 8.1% VO2max; P < 0.05). Blood lactate concentration at 10 min was higher in the long and medium than in the short work - rest trial (6.1 +/- 0.8, 5.2 +/- 0.9, 4.5 +/- 1.3 mmol x l(-1), respectively; P < 0.05). The respiratory exchange ratio was consistently higher during the long than during the medium and short work - rest trials (P < 0.05). Plasma glucose concentration was higher in the long and medium than in the short work - rest trial after 40 min of exercise (5.6 +/- 0.1, 6.6 +/- 0.2 and 5.3 +/- 0.5 mmol x l(-1), respectively; P < 0.05). No differences were observed between trials for performance time (72.7 +/- 14.9, 63.2 +/- 13.2, 57.6 +/- 13.5 s for the short, medium and long work - rest trial, respectively; P = 0.17), although a relationship between performance time and 40 min plasma glucose was observed (P < 0.05). The results show that 40 min of intermittent exercise involving long and medium work - rest durations elicits greater physiological strain and carbohydrate utilization than the same amount of intermittent exercise undertaken with a short work-rest duration.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Fructose is consumed in significant amounts in Western diets. An increase in fructose consumption over the past 10-20 years has been linked with a rise in obesity and metabolic disorders. Fructose/sucrose produces deleterious metabolic effects in animal models. This raises concern regarding the short-term and long-term effects of fructose and its risk in humans. RECENT FINDINGS In rodents, fructose stimulates lipogenesis and leads to hepatic and extrahepatic insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and high blood pressure. Insulin resistance appears to be related to ectopic lipid deposition. In humans, short-term fructose feeding increases de-novo lipogenesis and blood triglycerides and causes hepatic insulin resistance. There is presently no evidence for fructose-induced muscle insulin resistance in humans. The cellular mechanisms underlying the metabolic effects of fructose involve production of reactive oxygen species, activation of cellular stress pathways and possibly an increase in uric acid synthesis. SUMMARY Consuming large amounts of fructose can lead to the development of a complete metabolic syndrome in rodents. In humans, fructose consumed in moderate to high quantities in the diet increases plasma triglycerides and alters hepatic glucose homeostasis, but does not appear to cause muscle insulin resistance or high blood pressure in the short term. Further human studies are required to delineate the effects of fructose in humans.

Abstract
The proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) may modulate the onset and progression of complications of diabetes. As this cytokine increases after exercise, and many other exercise responses are altered by prior glycemic fluctuations, we hypothesized that prior hyperglycemia might exacerbate the IL-6 response to exercise. Twenty children with type 1 diabetes (12 boys/8 girls, age 12-15 yr) performed 29 exercise studies (30-min intermittent cycling at approximately 80% peak O2 uptake). Children were divided into four groups based on highest morning glycemic reading [blood glucose (BG) < 150, BG 151-200, BG 201-300, or BG > 300 mg/dl]. All exercise studies were performed in the late morning, after hyperglycemia had been corrected and steady-state conditions (plasma glucose < 120 mg/dl, basal insulin infusion) had been maintained for > or = 90 min. Blood samples for IL-6, growth factors, and counterregulatory hormones were drawn at pre-, end-, and 30 min postexercise time points. At all time points, circulating IL-6 was lowest in BG < 150 and progressively higher in the other three groups. The exercise-induced increment also followed a similar dose-response pattern (BG < 150, 0.6 +/- 0.2 ng/ml; BG 151-200, 1.2 +/- 0.8 ng/ml; BG 201-300, 2.1 +/- 1.1 ng/ml; BG > 300, 3.2 +/- 1.4 ng/ml). Other measured variables (growth hormone, IGF-I, glucagon, epinephrine, cortisol) were not influenced by prior hyperglycemia. Recent prior hyperglycemia markedly influenced baseline and exercise-induced levels of IL-6 in a group of peripubertal children with type 1 diabetes. While exercise is widely encouraged and indeed often considered part of diabetic management, our data underscore the necessity to completely understand all adaptive mechanisms associated with physical activity, particularly in the context of the developing diabetic child.

Abstract
Leukocytosis following exercise is a well-described phenomenon of stress/inflammatory activation in healthy humans. We hypothesized that, despite this increase in circulating inflammatory cells, exercise would paradoxically induce expression of both pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors within these cells. To test this hypothesis, 11 healthy adult men, 18–30 yr old, performed a 30-min bout of heavy cycling exercise; blood sampling was at baseline, end-exercise, and 60 min into recovery. The percentage of leukocytes positive for intracellular cytokines and growth factors and mean fluorescence intensity was obtained by flow cytometry. Proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1α, IL-2, IFN-γ, and TNF-α), a pleiotropic cytokine (IL-6), and anti-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors [IL-4, IL-10, growth hormone (GH), and IGF-I] were examined. Median fluorescence intensity was not affected by exercise; however, we found a number of significant changes ( P < 0.05 by mixed linear model and modified t-test) in the numbers of circulating cells positive for particular mediators. The pattern of expression reflected both pro- and anti-inflammatory functions. In T-helper lymphocytes, TNF-α, but also IL-6, and IL-4 were significantly increased. In monocytes, both IFN-γ and IL-4 increased. B-lymphocytes positive for GH and IGF-I increased significantly. GH-positive granulocytes also significantly increased. Collectively, these observations indicate that exercise primes an array of pro- and anti-inflammatory and growth factor expression within circulating leukocytes, perhaps preparing the organism to effectively respond to a variety of stressors imposed by exercise.

Abstract
Exercise leads to increases in circulating levels of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and to a simultaneous, seemingly paradoxical increase in both pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators. Whether this is paralleled by changes in gene expression within the circulating population of PBMCs is not fully understood. Fifteen healthy men (18–30 yr old) performed 30 min of constant work rate cycle ergometry (∼80% peak O2 uptake). Blood samples were obtained preexercise (Pre), end-exercise (End-Ex), and 60 min into recovery (Recovery), and gene expression was measured using microarray analysis (Affymetrix GeneChips). Significant differential gene expression was defined with a posterior probability of differential expression of 0.99 and a Bayesian P value of 0.005. Significant changes were observed from Pre to End-Ex in 311 genes, from End-Ex to Recovery in 552 genes, and from Pre to Recovery in 293 genes. Pre to End-Ex upregulation of PBMC genes related to stress and inflammation [e.g., heat shock protein 70 (3.70-fold) and dual-specificity phosphatase-1 (4.45-fold)] was followed by a return of these genes to baseline by Recovery. The gene for interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (an anti-inflammatory mediator) increased between End-Ex and Recovery (1.52-fold). Chemokine genes associated with inflammatory diseases [macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (1.84-fold) and -1β (2.88-fold), and regulation-on-activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (1.34-fold)] were upregulated but returned to baseline by Recovery. Exercise also upregulated growth and repair genes such as epiregulin (3.50-fold), platelet-derived growth factor (1.55-fold), and hypoxia-inducible factor-I (2.40-fold). A single bout of heavy exercise substantially alters PBMC gene expression characterized in many cases by a brisk activation and deactivation of genes associated with stress, inflammation, and tissue repair.

Abstract
The effects of intracranial transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta3 on spontaneous motor activity and energy metabolism were examined in rats. After injection of TGF-beta3 into the cisterna magna of the rat, spontaneous motor activity decreased significantly for 1 h. The intracranial injection of TGF-beta3 produced an immediate decrease in respiratory exchange ratio (RER). No significant changes were observed in energy expenditure. TGF-beta3 induced a significant increase in total fat oxidation and a decrease in total carbohydrate oxidation. Furthermore, the serum substrates associated with fat metabolism were significantly altered in rats injected with TGF-beta3. Both lipoprotein lipase activity in skeletal muscle and the concentration of serum ketone bodies increased, suggesting that the increase in fat oxidation caused by TGF-beta3 may have occurred in the liver and muscle. Intracranial injection of TGF-beta3 appeared to evoke a switch in the energy substrates accessed in energy expenditure. These results suggest that the release of TGF-beta3 in the brain by exercise is a signal for regulating energy consumption.

Abstract
tk;1Passive head-up tilt and exercise result in specific changes in the spectral characteristics of heart rate (HR) variability as a result of reduced vagal and enhanced sympathetic outflow. Recently analytic methods based on nonlinear system theory have been developed to characterize the nonlinear features in HR dynamics. This study was designed to assess the changes in the fractal and complexity measures of HR behavior during the passive head-up tilt and during exercise. Fractal exponent (alpha(1)) and approximate entropy (ApEn), measures of short-term correlation properties and overall complexity of HR, respectively, along with spectral components of HR variability were analyzed during a passive head-up tilt test (n = 10) and a low-intensity steady-state exercise (n = 20) in healthy subjects. We observed that alpha(1) increased during the tilt test (from 0.85 +/- 0.22 to 1.48 +/- 0.20; P < 0.001) and during the exercise (from 1.00 +/- 0.22 to 1.37 +/- 0. 14; P < 0.001). ApEn also increased during the exercise (from 1.04 +/- 0.11 to 1. 11 +/- 0.08; P < 0.05), but it did not change during the tilt test. The normalized high-frequency spectral component decreased and the low-frequency component increased similarly during both the exercise and the tilt test (P < 0.001 for all). Exercise and passive tilt result in an increase of short-term fractal correlation properties of HR dynamics, which is related to changes in the balance between the low- and high-frequency oscillations in controlled situations. Overall complexity of HR dynamics increases during exercise but not during passive tilt.

Abstract
In vivo glycogen kinetics was estimated with the simultaneous use of indirect calorimetry and tracer technology in healthy humans during 24-h periods with low or moderate physical activity (1 or 3 exercise sessions each day). Two 13C-carbohydrates meals were administered at 9.30 a.m. and 1.30 p.m., and one 12C-carbohydrates meal at 6.30 p.m. Net carbohydrate oxidation (net CHO ox) was measured over a 24 h period by indirect calorimetry and oxidation of 13C-labelled carbohydrates (13C CHO ox) was estimated from 13CO2 production. Glycogen breakdown, assessed for the period 8.15 a.m.-6.30 p.m. as the difference between net CHO ox and 13C CHO ox, was increased 1.6 times with three exercise sessions [123.3 (SEM 8.0) g] versus one session [77.9 (SEM 7.7) g, P < 0.0001]. Carbohydrate balances over 24 h were close to zero under both conditions, indicating that glycogen breakdown was matched by an equivalent glycogen synthesis. It was concluded that simultaneous use of indirect calorimetry and tracer technology may make possible the estimation of glycogen kinetics in humans. Moderate physical activity enhanced both glycogen breakdown and synthesis. This stimulation of glycogen metabolism may therefore play a role in the enhanced insulin sensitivity induced by physical exercise.

Abstract
Plasma glucose is an important energy source in exercising humans, supplying between 20 and 50% of the total oxidative energy production and between 25 and 100% of the total carbohydrate oxidised during submaximal exercise. Plasma glucose utilisation increases with the intensity of exercise, due to an increase in glucose utilisation by each active muscle fibre, an increase in the number of active muscle fibres, or both. Plasma glucose utilisation also increases with the duration of exercise, thereby partially compensating for the progressive decrease in muscle glycogen concentration. When compared at the same absolute exercise intensity (i.e. the same VO2), reliance on plasma glucose is also greater during exercise performed with a small muscle mass, i.e. with the arms or just 1 leg. This may be due to differences in the relative exercise intensity (i.e. the %VO2peak), or due to differences between the arms and legs in their fitness for aerobic activity. The rate of plasma glucose utilisation is decreased when plasma free fatty acid or muscle glycogen concentrations are very high, effects which are probably mediated by increases in muscle glucose-6-phosphate concentration. However, glucose utilisation is also reduced during exercise following a low carbohydrate diet, despite the fact that muscle glycogen is also often lower. When exercise is performed at the same absolute intensity before and after endurance training, plasma glucose utilisation is lower in the trained state. During exercise performed at the same relative intensity, however, glucose utilisation may be lower, the same, or actually higher in trained than in untrained subjects, because of the greater absolute VO2 and demand for substrate in trained subjects during exercise at a given relative exercise intensity. Although both hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia may occur during exercise, plasma glucose concentration usually remains relatively constant. Factors which increase or decrease the reliance of peripheral tissues on plasma glucose during exercise are therefore generally accompanied by quantitatively similar increases or decreases in glucose production. These changes in total glucose production are mediated by changes in both hepatic glycogenolysis and hepatic gluconeogenesis. Glycogenolysis dominates under most conditions, and is greatest early in exercise, during high intensity exercise, or when dietary carbohydrate intake is high. The rate of gluconeogenesis is increased when exercise is prolonged, preceded by a restricted carbohydrate intake, or performed with the arms. Both glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis appear to be decreased by endurance exercise training. These effects are due to changes in both the hormonal milieu and in the availability of hepatic glycogen and gluconeogenic precursors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
