FUSS, AND J. 0. HOLLOSZY. Effect of running to exhaustion on skeletal muscle mitochondria: a biochemical study. Am. J. Physiol. 223(3): 549-554. 1972.~Exercise to the point of exhaustion has been reported to result in damage to skeletal muscle mitochondria. This study was undertaken to evaluate and quantitate, in biochemical terms, any disruption of skeletal muscle mitochondria associated with exercise to exhaustion. Trained rats were run at treadmill speeds between 31 and 60 m/min for approximately 2 hr until they were exhausted. Rectal temperature increased to 41. I C. Muscle and liver glycogen stores were depleted 93 %. The
