Abstract
The process of glycolysis breaks down glycogen stored in muscles, producing lactate through pyruvate to generate energy. Excess lactate is then released into the bloodstream. When lactate reaches the liver, it is converted to glucose, which muscles utilize as a substrate to generate ATP. Although the biochemical study of lactate metabolism in hepatocytes and skeletal muscle cells has been extensive, the spatial and temporal dynamics of this metabolism in live cells are still unknown. We observed the dynamics of metabolism-related molecules in primary cultured hepatocytes and a skeletal muscle cell line upon lactate overload. Our observations revealed an increase in cytoplasmic pyruvate concentration in hepatocytes, which led to glucose release. Skeletal muscle cells exhibited elevated levels of lactate and pyruvate levels in both the cytoplasm and mitochondrial matrix. However, mitochondrial ATP levels remained unaffected, indicating that the increased lactate can be converted to pyruvate but is unlikely to be utilized for ATP production. The findings suggest that excess lactate in skeletal muscle cells is taken up into mitochondria with little contribution to ATP production. Meanwhile, lactate released into the bloodstream can be converted to glucose in hepatocytes for subsequent utilization in skeletal muscle cells.

Abstract
The purpose of this review and commentary was to provide an historical and evidence-based account of organic acids and the biochemical and organic chemistry evidence for why cells do not produce metabolites that are acids. The scientific study of acids has a long history dating to the 16th and 17th centuries, and the definition of an acid was proposed in 1884 as a molecule that when in an aqueous solution releases a hydrogen ion (H+). There are three common ionizable functional groups for molecules classified as acids: 1) the carboxyl group, 2) the phosphoryl group and 3) the amine group. The propensity by which a cation will associate or dissociate with a negatively charged atom is quantified by the equilibrium constant (Keq) of the dissociation constant (Kd) of the ionization (Keq = Kd), which for lactic acid (HLa) vs. lactate (La-) is expressed as: K e q = K d = [ H + ] [ L a - ] [ H L a ] = 4 677.351 4 (ionic strength = 0.01 Mol⋅L-1, T = 25 °C). The negative log10 of the dissociation pKd reveals the pH at which half of the molecules are ionized, which for HLa = 3.67. Thus, knowing the pKd and the pH of the solution at question will reveal the extent of the ionization vs. acidification of molecules that are classified as acids.

Abstract
Given their threatened status, there is considerable interest in establishing monitoring techniques that can be used to evaluate the health of sea turtles in the wild. The present study represents a methodological contribution towards field-scale metabolomic assessment of sea turtles, by exploring differences in blood biochemistry associated with site characteristics and capture technique. We compared the metabolome of blood from animals at three locations (two coastal and one reefal), collected from turtles that were either resting or active, and sampled across multiple seasons at one location. Our results show clear differences in the metabolome of turtles from the three locations, some of which are likely attributable to differences in diet or forage quality and others which may reflect differences in other factors (e.g., occurrence of land-based contaminants or other biotic and/or abiotic stressors) between coastal and reefal sites. Our analysis also revealed the influence of capture technique on metabolite profiles, with numerous markers of physical exertion in animals captured while active that were absent in turtles sampled while resting. We observed a modest potential for temporal differences in the metabolome, but controlling for sampling time did not change the overall conclusions of our study. This suggests that temporal differences in the metabolome warrant consideration when designing studies to evaluate the status of sea turtles in the wild, but that site characteristics and capture technique are bigger drivers. However, sample size for this comparison was relatively small and further investigation of seasonal differences in the metabolome are warranted. Research exploring each of these factors more closely will further contribute towards achieving robust metabolomics analysis of sea turtles across large spatial and temporal scales.

Abstract
What is science? While a simple question, the answer is complex. Science is a process involving human behaviour, and due to the human influence, science is often not pursued correctly. In fact, one can argue that we still do not know what the “correct” pursuit of science should entail. This is because science remains a work in progress, differs for different questions, and we often are not aware of the mistakes made until years, or decades, later. Such mistakes are common, regardless of the discipline. Within exercise physiology, mistakes have been frequent and led to eventual corrections; the replacement of the post-exercise rate of oxygen consumption (V̇O2) debt concept with that of excess post-exercise V̇O2; the invalidation of the cellular production of lactic acid; improvements to maximal heart rate estimation; and on-going debate over the Central Governor Model. Improved training and education in the historical development of science and the contributions from scientific philosophy are important in providing an understanding of science, and more importantly, how to pursue “better” vs. “inferior” forms of science. The writings of Popper and Kuhn are core to enhanced understanding of how to improve the quality of science pursued. Unfortunately, quality education and training in the historical and philosophical development of science remain poor in most countries. Until inadequate educational training is overcome, there is sustained risk for the pursuit of science to remain inadequate, which in turn has a potential widespread detriment to humanity and the planet we live on.

Abstract
Lactate production is an important clue for understanding metabolic and signal responses to exercise but its measurement is difficult. Therefore, this study aimed (1) to develop a method of calculating lactate production volume during exercise based on blood lactate concentration and compare the effects between endurance exercise training (EX) and PGC-1α overexpression (OE), (2) to elucidate which proteins and enzymes contribute to changes in lactate production due to EX and muscle PGC-1α OE, and (3) to elucidate the relationship between lactate production volume and signaling phosphorylations involved in mitochondrial biogenesis. EX and PGC-1α OE decreased muscle lactate production volume at the absolute same-intensity exercise, but only PGC-1α OE increased lactate production volume at the relative same-intensity exercise. Multiple linear regression revealed that phosphofructokinase, monocarboxylate transporter (MCT)1, MCT4, and citrate synthase equally contribute to the lactate production volume at high-intensity exercise within physiological adaptations, such as EX, not PGC-1α OE. We found that an exercise intensity-dependent increase in the lactate production volume was associated with a decrease in glycogen concentration and an increase in P-AMPK/T-AMPK. This suggested that the calculated lactate production volume was appropriate and reflected metabolic and signal responses but further modifications are needed for the translation to humans.

Abstract
The inhibition of platelet aggregation, and the activity of oxidoreductases and microhemocirculation in a burn wound on the treatment of burns with wound dressings based on bacterial nanocellulose (BC)-zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs)-betulin diphosphate (BDP) were studied. The control of the treatment by BC-ZnO NPs-BDP on burned rats by the noninvasive DLF method showed an increase in perfusion and the respiratory component in wavelet spectra, characterizing an improvement in oxygen saturation in the wound. The study on the volunteers' blood found the inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation by 30-90%. Disaggregation depends on the dose under the action of the ionized form of BDP and ZnO NPs-BDP in a phosphate buffer; it was reversible and had two waves. It was shown on rats that the specific activity of LDHreverse and LDHdirect (control-intact animals) on day 21 of treatment increased by 11-38% and 23%, respectively. The LDHreverse/LDHdirect ratio increased at BC-ZnO NPs-BDP treatment, which characterizes efficient NAD+ regeneration. AlDH activity increased significantly in the first 10 days by 70-170%, reflecting the effectiveness of the enzyme and NAD+ in utilizing toxic aldehydes at this stage of burn disease. The activities of GR and G6PDH using NADP(H) were increased with BC-ZnO NPs-BDP treatment.

Abstract
Exercise combined with dietary factors may have significant effects on the suppression of body fat accumulation. Several trials suggest that amino acid mixtures containing alanine, arginine, and phenylalanine (ARF) combined with exercise can significantly reduce body fat accumulation in overweight adults and high-fat diet-induced obesity in mice. We therefore hypothesized that combining ARF and exercise would significantly induce beige adipocyte formation and that this would contribute to reducing body weight, whereas administration of ARF or exercise alone would not. Administration of ARF (1 g/kg body weight, daily) combined with exercise (5 sessions per week) for 4 wk significantly induced formation of beige adipocytes in inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT) in mice, although ARF or exercise alone did not. Metabolomic analysis showed that plasma lactate concentration was significantly elevated in the exercise+ARF group relative to the exercise group. Furthermore, lactate dehydrogenase B, which increases redox stress by converting lactate to pyruvate in iWAT and triggers induction of uncoupling protein 1 expression was significantly upregulated in iWAT of the exercise+ARF group. These findings demonstrate the unique effect of ARF combined with exercise for inducing beige adipocyte formation, which may be associated with the suggested lactate-mediated pathway. Appropriate mixtures of amino acids could be used as a dietary supplement before exercise and contributed to increasing energy expenditures.

Abstract
Mitochondrial structures were probably observed microscopically in the 1840s, but the idea of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) within mitochondria did not appear until the 1930s. The foundation for research into energetics arose from Meyerhof's experiments on oxidation of lactate in isolated muscles recovering from electrical contractions in an O2 atmosphere. Today, we know that mitochondria are actually reticula and that the energy released from electron pairs being passed along the electron transport chain from NADH to O2 generates a membrane potential and pH gradient of protons that can enter the molecular machine of ATP synthase to resynthesize ATP. Lactate stands at the crossroads of glycolytic and oxidative energy metabolism. Based on reported research and our own modelling in silico, we contend that lactate is not directly oxidized in the mitochondrial matrix. Instead, the interim glycolytic products (pyruvate and NADH) are held in cytosolic equilibrium with the products of the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) reaction and the intermediates of the malate-aspartate and glycerol 3-phosphate shuttles. This equilibrium supplies the glycolytic products to the mitochondrial matrix for OXPHOS. LDH in the mitochondrial matrix is not compatible with the cytoplasmic/matrix redox gradient; its presence would drain matrix reducing power and substantially dissipate the proton motive force. OXPHOS requires O2 as the final electron acceptor, but O2 supply is sufficient in most situations, including exercise and often acute illness. Recent studies suggest that atmospheric normoxia may constitute a cellular hyperoxia in mitochondrial disease. As research proceeds appropriate oxygenation levels should be carefully considered.

Abstract
Wearable sensors enable the real-time and non-invasive monitoring of biomechanical, physiological, or biochemical parameters pertinent to the performance of athletes. Sports medicine researchers compile datasets involving a multitude of parameters that can often be time consuming to analyze in order to create value in an expeditious and accurate manner. Machine learning and artificial intelligence models may aid in the clinical decision-making process for sports scientists, team physicians, and athletic trainers in translating the data acquired from wearable sensors to accurately and efficiently make decisions regarding the health, safety, and performance of athletes. This narrative review discusses the application of commercial sensors utilized by sports teams today and the emergence of descriptive analytics to monitor the internal and external workload, hydration status, sleep, cardiovascular health, and return-to-sport status of athletes. This review is written for those who are interested in the application of wearable sensor data and data science to enhance performance and reduce injury burden in athletes of all ages.

Abstract
A lag in the increase in oxygen consumption (MO2 ) occurs at the start of sustainable exercise in trout. Waterborne dichloroacetate (0.58 and 3.49 mmol l-1 ), a compound which activates pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) by inhibiting PDH kinase in muscle, accelerates the increase in MO2 during the first 10 min of sustainable exercise when velocity is elevated to 75% critical swimming speed in a swim tunnel. There are no effects on MO2 thereafter or at rest. This indicates that a delay in PDH activation ("metabolic inertia") contributes to the lag phenomenon.

Abstract
Trehalose (TRE), a disaccharide, is absorbed slowly and gradually increases the blood glucose (GLU) level along with reducing insulin secretion. The aim of this study was twofold. First, we examined exercise performance following ingestions of either GLU, TRE, or water (WAT). The second purpose was to investigate the effects of TRE energy metabolism during prolonged exercise. We examined exercise performance using the Wingate test, with 30-min constant load exercise at 40% VO2peak after exercising for 60 min at 40% VO2peak, by using an electromagnetic brake-type bicycle ergometer (Part 1). The power values, blood glucose and lactate, and respiratory exchange ratio (RER) were measured. In addition, we investigated the energy metabolism after a single ingestion of TRE, by measuring the RER and estimating the lipid oxidation for 60 min at 40% VO2peak (Part 2). Healthy college male students performed three trials—(1) placebo (WAT), (2) GLU, and (3) TRE. Repeated two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used for a comparison of the data among the three trial groups. A multiple comparison test was performed using post hoc Bonferroni correction. The TRE ingestion significantly increased the average and maximum power values (p < 0.01). The TRE ingestion showed significantly higher lipid utilization than the GLU lipid oxidation values the in TRE, 12.5 ± 6.1 g/h; GLU, 9.3 ± 4.7 g/h; and WAT, 15.0 ± 4.4 g/h; (p < 0.01). In conclusion, we provide novel data that a single TRE ingestion was effective in improving prolonged exercise performance by effective use of glucose and lipids.

Abstract
The beneficial effects of physical activity for the prevention and management of several chronic diseases are widely recognized. Mathematical modeling of the effects of physical exercise in body metabolism and in particular its influence on the control of glucose homeostasis is of primary importance in the development of eHealth monitoring devices for a personalized medicine. Nonetheless, to date only a few mathematical models have been aiming at this specific purpose. We have developed a whole-body computational model of the effects on metabolic homeostasis of a bout of physical exercise. Built upon an existing model, it allows to detail better both subjects' characteristics and physical exercise, thus determining to a greater extent the dynamics of the hormones and the metabolites considered.

Abstract
Lactate (La-) has long been at the center of controversy in research, clinical, and athletic settings. Since its discovery in 1780, La- has often been erroneously viewed as simply a hypoxic waste product with multiple deleterious effects. Not until the 1980s, with the introduction of the cell-to-cell lactate shuttle did a paradigm shift in our understanding of the role of La- in metabolism begin. The evidence for La- as a major player in the coordination of whole-body metabolism has since grown rapidly. La- is a readily combusted fuel that is shuttled throughout the body, and it is a potent signal for angiogenesis irrespective of oxygen tension. Despite this, many fundamental discoveries about La- are still working their way into mainstream research, clinical care, and practice. The purpose of this review is to synthesize current understanding of La- metabolism via an appraisal of its robust experimental history, particularly in exercise physiology. That La- production increases during dysoxia is beyond debate, but this condition is the exception rather than the rule. Fluctuations in blood [La-] in health and disease are not typically due to low oxygen tension, a principle first demonstrated with exercise and now understood to varying degrees across disciplines. From its role in coordinating whole-body metabolism as a fuel to its role as a signaling molecule in tumors, the study of La- metabolism continues to expand and holds potential for multiple clinical applications. This review highlights La-'s central role in metabolism and amplifies our understanding of past research.

Abstract
Squat-stand maneuvers (SSMs) have been used to improve the coherence of transfer function analysis (TFA) estimates during the assessment of dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA). There is a need to understand the influence of peripheral changes resulting from SSMs on cerebral blood flow, which might confound estimates of dCA. Healthy subjects ( n = 29) underwent recordings at rest (5-min standing) and 15 SSMs (0.05 Hz). Heart rate (three-lead ECG), end-tidal CO2 (capnography), blood pressure (Finometer), cerebral blood velocity (CBV; transcranial Doppler, middle cerebral artery), and the angle of the thigh (tilt sensor) were measured continuously. The response of CBV to SSMs was decomposed into the relative contributions of mean arterial pressure (MAP), resistance-area product (RAP), and critical closing pressure (CrCP). Upon squatting, a rise in MAP (83.6 ± 21.1% contribution) was followed by increased CBV. A dCA response could be detected, determined by adjustments in RAP and CrCP (left hemisphere) with peak contributions of 24.8 ± 12.7% and 27.4 ± 22.8%, respectively, at different times during SSMs. No interhemispheric differences were detected. During standing, the contributions of MAP, RAP, and CrCP changed considerably. In conclusion, the changes of CBV subcomponents during repeated SSMs indicate a complex response of CBV to SSMs that can only be partially explained by myogenic mechanisms. More work is needed to clarify the potential contribution of other cofactors, such as breath-to-breath changes in Pco2, heart rate, stroke volume, and the neurogenic component of dCA. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Here, we describe the different contributions to the cerebral blood flow response after squat-stand maneuvers. Furthermore, we demonstrate the complex interaction of peripheral and cerebral parameters for the first time. Moreover, we show that the cerebral blood velocity response to squatting is likely to include a significant metabolic component.

Abstract
The present work describes a non invasive lactate sensing in sweat during workout. The sensing system is based on a non-equilibrium potentiometric measure performed using disposable, chemically modified, screen printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) that can be wetted with sweat during the exercise. The potentiometric signal, which is proportional to lactate concentration in sweat, is produced by a redox reaction activated by UV radiation, as opposed to the enzymatic reaction employed in traditional, blood-based measuring devices. The sensing system exhibits chemical selectivity toward lactate with linearity from 1 mM up to 180 mM. The dynamic linear range is suitable for measurement of lactate in sweat, which is more than 10 times concentrated than hematic lactate and reaches more than 100 mM in sweat during workout. The noninvasive measure can be repeated many times during exercise and during the recovery time in order to get personal information on the physiological and training status as well as on the physical performance. The device was successfully applied to several human subjects for the measurement of sweat lactate during prolonged cycling exercise. During the exercise sweat was simultaneously sampled on filter paper and extracted in water, and the lactate was determined by HPLC for method validation. The lactate concentration changes during the exercise reflected the intensity of physical effort. This method has perspectives in many sport disciplines as well as in health care and biomedical area.

Abstract
Although the lungs are a critical component of exercise performance, their response to exercise and other environmental stresses is often overlooked when evaluating pulmonary performance during high workloads. Exercise can produce capillary leakage, particularly when left atrial pressure increases related to left ventricular (LV) systolic or diastolic failure. Diastolic LV dysfunction that results in elevated left atrial pressure during exercise is particularly likely to result in pulmonary edema and capillary hemorrhage. Data from race horses, endurance athletes, and triathletes support the concept that the lungs can react to exercise and immersion stress with pulmonary edema and pulmonary hemorrhage. Immersion in water by swimmers and divers can also increase stress on pulmonary capillaries and result in pulmonary edema. Swimming-induced pulmonary edema and immersion pulmonary edema in scuba divers are well-documented events caused by the fluid shifts that occur with immersion, elevated pulmonary venous pressure during extreme exercise, and negative alveolar pressure due to inhalation resistance. Prevention strategies include avoiding extreme exercise, avoiding over hydration, and assuring that inspiratory resistance is minimized.

Abstract
Aging is associated with noticeable impairments in brain serotonin transmission, which might contribute to increased vulnerability to developing depression in later life. Animal and human studies have shown that aerobic exercise can stimulate brain serotonin activity and trigger parallel elevations in tryptophan (TRP, the serotonin precursor) availability in blood plasma. However, the influence of chronic exercise on serotonergic activity in older adults is not yet known. Sixteen men aged 64 ± 3 years exercised for 1 h (67%–70% peak oxygen consumption) at baseline and following 16 weeks of aerobic training. The main outcome measures were cardiorespiratory fitness, body composition, branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), TRP, prolactin, lactate, and free fatty acids (FFA). Changes in plasma free-TRP/BCAA and prolactin served as surrogates for TRP availability and serotonin activity, respectively. Chronic exercise decreased body mass (P < 0.05) whilst it increased ventilatory threshold 2 (P < 0.01). Although training did not affect plasma TRP availability to the brain at rest, both pre- and post-training exercise challenges markedly increased TRP availability (P < 0.001). The free-TRP/BCAA values reached a ceiling during exercise that was lower following training (P < 0.05), whereas similar patterns were found for prolactin, lactate, and FFA. These data show that aerobic exercise elicits consistent transient elevations in plasma TRP availability to the brain in older men; the elevations were independent from physical training, although less pronounced following training. The data support the contention that repeated elevations in brain serotonin activity might be involved in the antidepressant effect of exercise training in older adults.

Abstract
A number of studies document that physical exercise influences cognitive performance in a variety of ways. Some of these studies present the relationship between the workload of exercise and the activation level of the central nervous system as an inverted-U relationship. Among the factors that could be responsible for diverging results are the participants' individual fitness level and the athletic status. While athletes and non-athletes do not differ in general cognitive skills, athletes are better able to maintain these during physical exercise especially under high exercise intensities. Hence, we hypothesized that the inverted-U function applies for non-athletes but disappears in team sports experts. We compared athletes' and non-athletes' cognitive performance on a measure of attentional behavior under three different physical exercise intensities. Results showed an increase of non-athletes' attentional breadth right up to a certain level of maximal aerobic power before decreasing, as expected according to an inverted-U curve. In contrast, athletes' attentional breadth continued to increase with higher physical exercise intensities. We concluded that physical exercise influences participants' attentional behavior and that individual fitness acts as a moderator of this relationship.

Abstract
Blood flow (BF) increases with increasing exercise intensity in skeletal, respiratory, and cardiac muscle. In humans during maximal exercise intensities, 85% to 90% of total cardiac output is distributed to skeletal and cardiac muscle. During exercise BF increases modestly and heterogeneously to brain and decreases in gastrointestinal, reproductive, and renal tissues and shows little to no change in skin. If the duration of exercise is sufficient to increase body/core temperature, skin BF is also increased in humans. Because blood pressure changes little during exercise, changes in distribution of BF with incremental exercise result from changes in vascular conductance. These changes in distribution of BF throughout the body contribute to decreases in mixed venous oxygen content, serve to supply adequate oxygen to the active skeletal muscles, and support metabolism of other tissues while maintaining homeostasis. This review discusses the response of the peripheral circulation of humans to acute and chronic dynamic exercise and mechanisms responsible for these responses. This is accomplished in the context of leading the reader on a tour through the peripheral circulation during dynamic exercise. During this tour, we consider what is known about how each vascular bed controls BF during exercise and how these control mechanisms are modified by chronic physical activity/exercise training. The tour ends by comparing responses of the systemic circulation to those of the pulmonary circulation relative to the effects of exercise on the regional distribution of BF and mechanisms responsible for control of resistance/conductance in the systemic and pulmonary circulations.

Abstract
There are few cases published in literature in which the use of intravenous dextrose as treatment for an insulinoma resulted in a metabolic acidosis. This is due perhaps to the usual method of administration, which is usually at low concentrations, for limited periods or low volumes. We present the case of a woman with suspected insulinoma by laboratory findings in which an endogenous hyperinsulinism was observed. During hospitalization, the patient required a progressive increase of the glucose infusion to prevent severe hypoglycemia. Two days before surgery, the patient presented symptoms of malaise and muscle weakness and a metabolic acidosis with hypokalemia became apparent in the blood analysis. This metabolic imbalance was attributed to a long period of treatment with high volume of intravenous dextrose infusion. If large doses of dextrose are required in a patient with an insulinoma, then the possibility of a metabolic imbalance must be considered during the follow-up. When the suspicion of an insulinoma is high, and all the attempts of pre-operative localization fail, patients should be derived early to specialized centers with modern imaging techniques, so that surgery is not delayed, and this rare and threatening complication could be avoided.

Abstract
INTRODUÇÃO: Os modelos experimentais são utilizados para simulações de situações relacionadas ao treinamento físico. OBJETIVO: O objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar a aptidão física de ratos em treinamento através da avaliação das concentrações de ácido láctico sérico. METODOLOGIA: Foi realizado estudo experimental utilizando 40 ratos machos Wistar, adultos, divididos em cinco grupos de oito indivíduos, havendo um grupo controle. Foi realizado o primeiro teste de esforço máximo (TE) após uma semana de familiarização com a esteira rolante e antes do primeiro dia de treinamento. Os testes de esforço seguintes foram feitos a cada 10 dias de treinamento. No final de cada teste de esforço foi coletado 1ml de sangue para medir o ácido láctico. O teste t de Student foi utilizado para comparação das médias. RESULTADOS: O ácido láctico sérico diminuiu significativamente entre o primeiro e o último teste de esforço máximo nos grupos GE10, 20 e 30. No G30 pode-se demonstrar diferença significativa entre os testes inicial e final no que se refere à velocidade (p = 0,003) e tempo (p = 0,018), assim como no G40 velocidade inicial (p = 0,0006) e tempo (p = 0,0001). CONCLUSÃO: Os resultados demonstraram que ratos submetidos a treinamento físico apresentam capacidade metabólica medida pelo ácido láctico, que demonstra aptidão física e treinamento adequado com aumento do esforço físico, sendo bem tolerado até 40 dias de treinamento em esteira rolante.

Abstract
Purpose:To compare blood lactate concentration ([Bla]) at 15 s and 45 s during the 1-min rest period between each stage of an incremental test in rowers and to establish the validity of using interchangeable sampling times.Methods:Seventeen male club rowers (mean ± SD, age 28.8 ± 5.7 years, height 186.9 ± 5.1 cm, body mass 85.4 ± 6.6 kg) performed an incremental rowing ergometer test, consisting of five stages of 4 min corresponding to approximately 80% HRmax. A 10-µL earlobe blood sample was collected from each subject at 15 s and again at 45 s in the final minute of each test stage and analyzed in duplicate. A maximum of 10 s was allowed for blood collection.Results:Statistical analysis using limits of agreement and correlation indicated a high level of agreement between the two [Bla] samples for all fve test stages (agreement >95%, confidence intervals [CI] = -0.5 to 1.5, r = .97, P < .05).Conclusion:These results suggest that a sampling time between 15 s and 45 s may be recommended for the valid assessment of the [Bla] threshold in rowing performance monitoring. This extends the current sampling time of 30 s used by physiologists and coaches for National and club-level Rowers.

Abstract
Regulation of cell volume is a fundamental property of all animal cells and is of particular importance in skeletal muscle where exercise is associated with a wide range of cellular changes that would be expected to influence cell volume. These complex electrical, metabolic and osmotic changes, however, make rigorous study of the consequences of individual factors on muscle volume difficult despite their likely importance during exercise. Recent charge-difference modelling of cell volume distinguishes three major aspects to processes underlying cell volume control: (i) determination by intracellular impermeant solute; (ii) maintenance by metabolically dependent processes directly balancing passive solute and water fluxes that would otherwise cause cell swelling under the influence of intracellular membrane-impermeant solutes; and (iii) volume regulation often involving reversible short-term transmembrane solute transport processes correcting cell volumes towards their normal baselines in response to imposed discrete perturbations. This review covers, in turn, the main predictions from such quantitative analysis and the experimental consequences of comparable alterations in extracellular pH, lactate concentration, membrane potential and extracellular tonicity. The effects of such alterations in the extracellular environment in resting amphibian muscles are then used to reproduce the intracellular changes that occur in each case in exercising muscle. The relative contributions of these various factors to the control of cell volume in resting and exercising skeletal muscle are thus described.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle can maintain ATP concentration constant during the transition from rest to exercise, whereas metabolic reaction rates may increase substantially. Among the key regulatory factors of skeletal muscle energy metabolism during exercise, the dynamics of cytosolic and mitochondrial NADH and NAD+ have not been characterized. To quantify these regulatory factors, we have developed a physiologically based computational model of skeletal muscle energy metabolism. This model integrates transport and reaction fluxes in distinct capillary, cytosolic, and mitochondrial domains and investigates the roles of mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ transport (shuttling) activity and muscle glycogen concentration (stores) during moderate intensity exercise (60% maximal O2 consumption). The underlying hypothesis is that the cytosolic redox state (NADH/NAD+) is much more sensitive to a metabolic disturbance in contracting skeletal muscle than the mitochondrial redox state. This hypothesis was tested by simulating the dynamic metabolic responses of skeletal muscle to exercise while altering the transport rate of reducing equivalents (NADH and NAD+) between cytosol and mitochondria and muscle glycogen stores. Simulations with optimal parameter estimates showed good agreement with the available experimental data from muscle biopsies in human subjects. Compared with these simulations, a 20% increase (or approximately 20% decrease) in mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ shuttling activity led to an approximately 70% decrease (or approximately 3-fold increase) in cytosolic redox state and an approximately 35% decrease (or approximately 25% increase) in muscle lactate level. Doubling (or halving) muscle glycogen concentration resulted in an approximately 50% increase (or approximately 35% decrease) in cytosolic redox state and an approximately 30% increase (or approximately 25% decrease) in muscle lactate concentration. In both cases, changes in mitochondrial redox state were minimal. In conclusion, the model simulations of exercise response are consistent with the hypothesis that mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ shuttling activity and muscle glycogen stores affect primarily the cytosolic redox state. Furthermore, muscle lactate production is regulated primarily by the cytosolic redox state.

Abstract
Since controversy exists on how hypoxia influences vascular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and our previous work provided evidence that it relaxes endothelium-denuded bovine coronary arteries (BCA) in a ROS-independent manner by promoting cytosolic NADPH oxidation, we examined how hypoxia alters relationships between cytosolic and mitochondrial NAD(P)H redox and superoxide generation in BCA. Methods were developed to image and interpret the effects of hypoxia on NAD(P)H redox based on its autofluorescence in the cytosolic, mitochondrial, and nuclear regions of smooth muscle cells isolated from BCA. Aspects of anaerobic glycolysis and cytosolic NADH redox in BCA were assessed from measurements of lactate and pyruvate. Imaging changes in mitosox and dehydroethidium fluorescence were used to detect changes in mitochondrial and cytosolic-nuclear superoxide, respectively. Hypoxia appeared to increase mitochondrial and decrease cytosolic-nuclear superoxide under conditions associated with increased cytosolic NADH (lactate/pyruvate), mitochondrial NAD(P)H, and hyperpolarization of mitochondria detected by tetramethylrhodamine methyl-ester perchlorate fluorescence. Rotenone appeared to increase mitochondrial NAD(P)H and superoxide, suggesting hypoxia could increase superoxide generation by complex I. However, hypoxia decreased mitochondrial superoxide in the presence of contraction to 30 mM KCl, associated with decreased mitochondrial NAD(P)H. Thus, while hypoxia augments NAD(P)H redox associated with increased mitochondrial superoxide, contraction with KCl reverses these effects of hypoxia on mitochondrial superoxide, suggesting mitochondrial ROS increases do not mediate hypoxic relaxation in BCA. Since hypoxia lowers pyruvate, and pyruvate inhibits hypoxia-elicited relaxation and NADPH oxidation in BCA, mitochondrial control of pyruvate metabolism associated with cytosolic NADPH redox regulation could contribute to sensing hypoxia.

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
The present study examined the effects of derivatives of galactosides and glucosides in a polysaccharide extract from Euphorbia kansui (Euphorbiaceae) on exercise-induced oxidative stress in mice. Exhaustive swimming exercise significantly increases the degree of lipid peroxidation in terms of malondialdehyde content and reduces the antioxidant activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx). Our findings revealed that chronic oral treatment with the extract elevates enzymatic activities of SOD and GPx accompanied by a corresponding decrease in malondialdehyde. The antioxidative activities of these compounds against exercise-induced oxidative stress are correlated with various activities such as reducing the production of superoxide and hydroxyl radicals, inhibiting lipid peroxidation, enhancing antioxidative defenses, and increasing the production of SOD and GPx activity and expression in different tissues. These compounds may be involved in glycogen metabolism to meet the requirement of working skeletal muscles and act as antioxidants by terminating the chain reaction of lipid peroxidation to maintain the morphological stability of mitochondria in spinal motor neurons. These observations suggest that E. kansui has antioxidative and antifatigue properties and can be given as prophylactic and (or) therapeutic supplements for increasing antioxidant enzyme activities and preventing lipid peroxidation during strenuous exercise.

Abstract
The combined effects of intracellular lactate and proton accumulation on cell volume, Vc, were investigated in resting Rana temporaria striated muscle fibres. Intracellular lactate and H+ concentrations were simultaneously increased by exposing resting muscle fibres to extracellular solutions that contained 20-80 mm sodium lactate. Cellular H+ and lactate entry was confirmed using pH-sensitive electrodes and 1H-NMR, respectively, and effects on Vc were measured using confocal microscope xz-scanning. Exposure to extracellular lactate up to 80 mm produced significant changes in pH and intracellular lactate (from a pH of 7.24 +/- 0.03, n = 8, and 4.65 +/- 1.07 mm, n = 6, respectively, in control fibres, to 6.59 +/- 0.03, n = 4, and 26.41 +/- 0.92 mm, n = 3, respectively) that were comparable to those observed following fatiguing stimulation (6.30-6.70 and 18.04 +/- 1.78 mm, n = 6, respectively). Yet, the increase in intracellular osmolarity expected from such an increase in intracellular lactate did not significantly alter Vc. Simulation of these experimental results, modified from the charge difference model of Fraser & Huang, demonstrated that such experimental manoeuvres produced changes in intracellular [H+] and [lactate] comparable to those observed during muscle fatigue, and accounted for this paradoxical conservation of Vc through balancing negative osmotic effects resulting from the net cation efflux that would follow a titration of intracellular membrane-impermeant anions by the intracellular accumulation of protons. It demonstrated that with established physiological values for intracellular buffering capacity and the permeability ratio of lactic acid and anionic lactate, P(LacH): P(Lac-), this would provide a mechanism that precisely balanced any effect on cell volume resulting from lactate accumulation during exercise.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE An alteration of high energy phosphate metabolism in muscles may contribute to exercise intolerance. The objective of this study was to clarify the changes in high energy phosphate metabolites in muscles during exercise in patients with non-hypoxaemic chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which influences the impairment of muscle metabolism. METHODOLOGY Calf muscle energy metabolism was studied in eight stable non-hypoxaemic COPD patients and eight control subjects, using 31P-magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). MRS spectra were acquired at rest, during exercise at two levels of intensity, and during recovery. The control subjects exercised under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions. The intensity of exercise was standardized by the maximal isometric voluntary contraction (MVC) of the calf muscle and the cross-sectional area (CSA) of calf muscle. RESULTS MVC and CSA were lower in COPD patients. No significant differences in intracellular pH, inorganic phosphate/phosphocreatine ratio or percentage recovery in inorganic phosphate/phosphocreatine ratio were observed between the two groups in muscles at rest, during exercise or during recovery. CONCLUSIONS Muscle metabolites, during exercise standardized by muscle CSA and MVC, did not differ between non-hypoxaemic COPD patients and control subjects. MVC, CSA or both, are assumed to be closely related to muscle metabolism, as no difference in high energy phosphate metabolites was observed for COPD patients compared to control subjects when the load was standardized for MVC and CSA. This suggests that high energy metabolites are consumed to a similar extent in the same muscle volume in non-hypoxaemic COPD patients and control subjects.

Abstract
1. We investigated whether chronic suppression of the renin-angiotensin system, which is known to be associated with reductions in microvascular density and vasodilator responsiveness of skeletal muscle, could affect exercise capacity in normotensive rats. 2. Rats were placed on normal rat chow, normal rat chow with captopril (100 mg/kg per day) or a high-salt diet (HS; 4%) for 4 weeks. Following these interventions, rats with indwelling carotid artery catheters were submitted to stepwise increasing exercise on a motor treadmill at a speed of 10, 20 and 30 m/min for 4 min while blood lactate was measured. 3. Blood lactate after exercise at a speed of 20 m/min was significantly higher and the duration during which rats were able to run at a speed of 30 m/min was significantly shorter in captopril-treated rats and rats fed an HS diet compared with control rats. 4. We conclude that chronic treatment with captopril or HS diet could reduce the exercise capacity in inactive normotensive rats, probably through chronic inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system.

Abstract
The development of acidosis during intense exercise has traditionally been explained by the increased production of lactic acid, causing the release of a proton and the formation of the acid salt sodium lactate. On the basis of this explanation, if the rate of lactate production is high enough, the cellular proton buffering capacity can be exceeded, resulting in a decrease in cellular pH. These biochemical events have been termed lactic acidosis. The lactic acidosis of exercise has been a classic explanation of the biochemistry of acidosis for more than 80 years. This belief has led to the interpretation that lactate production causes acidosis and, in turn, that increased lactate production is one of the several causes of muscle fatigue during intense exercise. This review presents clear evidence that there is no biochemical support for lactate production causing acidosis. Lactate production retards, not causes, acidosis. Similarly, there is a wealth of research evidence to show that acidosis is caused by reactions other than lactate production. Every time ATP is broken down to ADP and Pi, a proton is released. When the ATP demand of muscle contraction is met by mitochondrial respiration, there is no proton accumulation in the cell, as protons are used by the mitochondria for oxidative phosphorylation and to maintain the proton gradient in the intermembranous space. It is only when the exercise intensity increases beyond steady state that there is a need for greater reliance on ATP regeneration from glycolysis and the phosphagen system. The ATP that is supplied from these nonmitochondrial sources and is eventually used to fuel muscle contraction increases proton release and causes the acidosis of intense exercise. Lactate production increases under these cellular conditions to prevent pyruvate accumulation and supply the NAD+needed for phase 2 of glycolysis. Thus increased lactate production coincides with cellular acidosis and remains a good indirect marker for cell metabolic conditions that induce metabolic acidosis. If muscle did not produce lactate, acidosis and muscle fatigue would occur more quickly and exercise performance would be severely impaired.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ischemia is a serious problem in clinical medicine, and effective methods are needed to detect ischemia before the injury becomes irreversible. In experimental studies on several organs, PCO2 was found to increase rapidly after the onset of supply-dependent anaerobic metabolism. A shortcoming of these studies was that PCO2 was not correlated with tissue concentrations of lactate and the energy status in the cell. Thus, in this study we have measured tissue concentrations of lactate, phosphocreatine, and adenosine triphosphate. We hypothesized that during ischemic conditions, PCO2 reflects lactate generation in the cell and not exhausted energy stores per se. If this is the case, PCO2 can be used to detect ischemia before the energy stores are depleted. Consequently, therapy can be instituted at a time when the organ is salvageable. DESIGN Prospective laboratory study. SETTING University research laboratory. SUBJECTS Seven pigs. INTERVENTIONS In a porcine model, gluteal skeletal muscles with no-flow ischemia were examined. PCO2 was measured both in situ and in vitro at increasing periods of time. Concomitantly, tissue lactate, adenosine triphosphate, and phosphocreatine were analyzed. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Tissue surface CO2 tension (PtCO2) increased rapidly after onset of ischemia. From a baseline of 63 +/- 3 torr (8.4 +/- 1.2 kPa) under aerobic conditions, it increased to 157 +/- 6 torr (21 +/- 2.2 kPa) after 30 mins of ischemia and 386 +/- 9 torr (51.5 +/- 3 kPa) at 120 mins. The rapid increase of PtCO2 correlated well with increasing values of lactate (r2 >.9) in the tissue. Adenosine triphosphate was essentially unchanged for 45 mins after onset of ischemia, after which it declined. Phosphocreatine decreased earlier than adenosine triphosphate in accordance with the notion that high-energy phosphate groups are transferred from phosphocreatine to adenosine triphosphate. CONCLUSION In this porcine model of skeletal muscle ischemia, PtCO2 correlates well with tissue lactate and increases long before the energy stores of phosphocreatine and most notably adenosine triphosphate are severely reduced. Thus, PtCO2 could be monitored to detect and treat earlier stages of ischemia.

Abstract
Oxygen deficiency during critical illness may cause profound changes in cellular metabolism and subsequent tissue and organ dysfunction. Clinical treatment in these cases targets rapid reoxygenation to avoid a prolonged impaired synthesis of cellular high-energy phosphates (ATP). However, the effect of this therapeutic intervention on tissue metabolism has not been determined yet. Thus the present study was designed to determine the effects of hypoxia and reoxygenation with either room air or 100% oxygen on variables of interstitial metabolism in different tissues using in vivo microdialysis. Twenty-seven adult, male CD-rats (407-487 g; Ivanovas, Kisslegg, Germany) were studied during general anesthesia. Following preparation and randomization, rats were normoventilated for 45 min (FiO(2) 0.21), followed by induction of hypoxia (FiO(2) 0.1, 40 min) and reoxygenated for 50 min either with FiO(2) 1.0 (group 1, n=10) or FiO(2) 0.21 (group 2, n=10). Control animals (n=7) were ventilated with 21% oxygen during the observation period. Additional to invasive haemodynamic parameters, biochemical tissue monitoring was performed using CMA 20 microdialysis probes, inserted into muscle, subcutaneous space, liver, and the peritoneal cavity allowing analyses of lactate and pyruvate at short intervals. Hypoxia induced a significant reduction in mean arterial pressure (MAP) in group 1 and 2 compared with the control group (P<0.05) without any significant differences between both treatment groups. This was accompanied by a significant increase in blood lactate (10.5+/-3.1 mM (group 1) and 12.3+/-4.1 mM (group 2) vs. 1.5+/-0.3 mM (control); P<0.05) and severe metabolic acidosis (base excess (BE): -18.3+/-5 mM (1) and -17.3+/-7 mM (2) vs. -2.6+/-1.8 mM (control), P<0.05). During hypoxia, the interstitial lacate/pyruvate ratio in groups 1 and 2 increased to 455+/-199% (muscle), 468+/-148% (intraperitoneal), 770+/-218% (hepatic) and 855+/-432% (subcutaneous) (P<0.05 vs. control, respectively). No significant inter-organ or inter-group differences in interstitial dialysates were observed in the treatment groups, neither during hypoxia nor during reoxygenation. Our data suggest, that hypoxia induces comparable metabolic alterations in various tissues and that reoxygenation with 100% oxygen is not superior to 21% oxygen in restoring tissue metabolism after critical hypoxia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An important role of the increased stimulation of skeletal muscle ergoreceptors (intramuscular afferents sensitive to products of muscle work) in the genesis of symptoms of exertion intolerance in chronic heart failure (CHF) has been proposed. With the use of selective infusions and dietary manipulation methods, we sought to identify the role of H+, K+, lactate, and peripheral hemodynamics on ergoreflex overactivation. METHODS AND RESULTS Ten stable CHF patients (aged 67.9+/-2.5 years, peak oxygen uptake 16.3+/-1.2 mL x kg(-1) x min(-1)) and 10 age-matched and sex-matched healthy subjects were studied. The ergoreflex contribution to ventilation was assessed by post-handgrip regional circulatory occlusion (PH-RCO) and computed as the difference in ventilation between PH-RCO and a control run without PH-RCO. This test was performed on 6 separate occasions. On each occasion a different chemical was infused (insulin, sodium nitroprusside, sodium bicarbonate, dopamine, or saline) or a 36-hour glucose-free diet was undertaken before the test. During all stages of the protocol, the local muscular blood effluent concentrations of H+, K+, glucose, and lactate were assessed. An ergoreflex effect on the ventilatory response was seen in patients (versus control subjects) during the saline infusions (6.7+/-2.3 L/min versus -0.1+/-0.5 L/min, P<0.01). The only intervention to significantly lower the ergoreflex was sodium bicarbonate (0.4+/-0.3 L/min versus -0.2+/-0.4 L/min in control subjects, P=NS; versus saline P<0.05), which also reduced H(+) concentration during exercise (47.4+/-1.3 versus 50.0+/-1.4 nmol/L on saline, P<0.05). CONCLUSION A reduction of the H+ concentration by infusion of sodium bicarbonate abolishes the increased ergoreceptor activity in CHF, suggesting a role of H+ in ergoreflex activation, either directly or indirectly.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the breathing of hyperoxic gas affects hemoglobin oxygen saturation (S(a)O(2)) and blood acidosis during intense intermittent exercise and recovery in sprint runners. The hypothesis was that the breathing of hyperoxic gas prevents S(a)O(2) from decreasing, delays blood acidosis during the exercise and improves the rate of heart rate recovery after the exercise. Nine sprinters ran three sets of 300 m at different velocities on a treadmill in normoxia (NOX) and in two hyperoxic conditions (ERHOX and RHOX; F(I)O(2) 0.40) in a randomized order. In ERHOX the inspired air was hyperoxic during the entire exercise and recovery and in RHOX the hyperoxic air was only inhaled during recovery periods. Blood pH and S(a)O(2) were measured from fingertip blood samples taken after each set of runs. The mean heart rate for the final 15 s of the last run in each set (HR(work)), the mean heart rate for the final 15 s of the first minute of recovery (HR(rec)) and the difference of HR(work) and HR(rec) (HR(dec)) were determined. In NOX, S(a)O(2) decreased from 95.0 +/- 2.0% to 88.7 +/- 2.0% (p < 0.001) but S(a)O(2) did not change in ERHOX (from 95.4 +/- 1.3% to 95.9 +/- 1.8%). A significant correlation was observed between the S(a)O(2) decrease in NOX and the effect of hyperoxia on blood pH in ERHOX (r = 0.63) and on HRdec in both ERHOX (r = 0.74) and RHOX (r = 0.69). We concluded that hemoglobin oxygen de-saturation occurred during intensive intermittent exercise in normoxia but hyperoxic gas during the exercise prevents S(a)O(2) from decreasing. Furthermore, the present results suggested that the beneficial effects of hyperoxia on heart rate recovery and blood acidosis during intensive intermittent exercise were related to hemoglobin de-saturation in normoxia.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of a single session of prolonged cycle exercise [60% peak O2 uptake (VO2 peak) for 5-6 h] on metabolic adaptations in working vastus lateralis muscle, nine untrained males (peak O2 uptake = 47.2 +/- 1.1 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1), means +/- SE) were examined before (Pre) and at 2 (Post-2), 4 (Post-4), and 6 (Post-6) days after the training session. On the basis of 15 min of cycle exercise at 59% VO2 peak, it was found that training reduced (P < 0.05) exercise muscle lactate (mM) at Post-2 (6.65 +/- 0.69), Post-4 (7.74 +/- 0.63), and Post-6 (7.78 +/- 1.2) compared with Pre (10.9 +/- 1.3). No effect of training was observed on exercise ATP, phosphocreatine, and glycogen levels. After the single session of training, plasma volumes were elevated (P < 0.05) at Post-2 (6.7 +/- 1.7%), Post-4 (5.86 +/- 1.9), and Post-6 (5.13 +/- 2.5). The single exercise session also resulted in elevations (P < 0.05) in the monocarboxylate transporters MCT1 and MCT4 throughout the 6 days after exercise. Although epinephrine and norepinephrine both increased with exercise, only norepinephrine was reduced (P < 0.05) with training and only at Post-4. These results indicate that regulation of cellular lactate levels occurs rapidly and independently of other metabolic adaptations. It is proposed that increases in MCT and plasma volume are at least partly involved in the lower muscle lactate content observed after the training session by increasing lactate membrane transport and removal, respectively.

Abstract
An increased intracellular availability of the co-enzyme A esters of long-chain fatty acids is thought to underlie many aspects of the insulin resistance syndrome. However, the cause of clustering of a hyperdynamic circulation, sympathetic activation, hypertension, hyperuricaemia, and a raised haematocrit in the insulin resistance syndrome remains to be elucidated. We propose a mechanism that expands the etiological role of long-chain fatty acids. By inhibiting adenine nucleotide translocators, elevated intracellular concentrations of the co-enzyme A esters of long-chain fatty acids impair mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. This is expected to result in a chronic systemic increase in extracellular adenosine concentrations. As adenosine stimulates the sympathetic nervous system, induces systemic vasodilatation, stimulates erythropoiesis, and induces renal vasoconstriction with renal sodium retention, increased extracellular ADO concentrations may be the common denominator explaining the above-mentioned and still unexplained phenomena associated with the insulin resistance syndrome. Along the same lines, hyperuricaemia can be explained by the fact that adenosine is broken down to urate and because of increased renal urate retention.
