Heating after intense repeated contractions inhibits glycogen accumulation in mouse EDL muscle: role of phosphorylase in post-exercise glycogen metabolism.
American Journal of Physiology. Cell Physiology 2018 August 30
The effects of heating on glycogen synthesis (incorporation of [14 C]glucose into glycogen) and accumulation after intense repeated contractions were investigated. Isolated mouse extensor digitorum longus muscle (type II) was stimulated electrically to perform intense tetanic contractions at 25°C. After 120 min recovery at 25°C, glycogen accumulated to almost 80% of basal, whereas after recovery at 35°C, glycogen remained low (~25% of basal). Glycogen synthesis averaged 0.97±0.07 µmol/30 min/g wet wt during recovery at 25°C and 1.48±0.08 during recovery at 35°C (P<0.001). There were no differences in phosphorylase and glycogen synthase total activities, nor in phosphorylase fractional activity, whereas glycogen synthase fractional activity was increased by ~50% after recovery at 35°C vs. 25°C. Inorganic phosphate (Pi, substrate for phosphorylase) was markedly increased (~300% of basal) following contraction, but returned to control levels after 120 min recovery at 25°C. In contrast, Pi remained elevated after recovery at 35°C (>2-fold higher than recovery at 25°C). Estimates of glycogen breakdown indicated that phosphorylase activity (either via inhibition at 25°C or activation at 35°C) was responsible for ~60% of glycogen accumulation during recovery at 25°C and ~45% during recovery at 35°C. These data demonstrate that despite the enhancing effect of heating on glycogen synthesis during recovery from intense contractions, glycogen accumulation is inhibited owing to Pi-mediated activation of phosphorylase. Thus phosphorylase can play a quantitatively important role in glycogen biogenesis during recovery from repeated contractions in isolated type II muscle.
