Effects of aging and exercise training on leg hemodynamics and oxidative metabolism in the transition from rest to steady-state exercise: role of cGMP signaling

Abstract: Aging is associated with slower skeletal muscle O uptake (V̇o) kinetics; however, the mechanisms underlying this effect of age are unclear. Also, the effects of exercise training in elderly on the initial vascular and metabolic response to exercise remain to be elucidated. We measured leg hemodynamics and oxidative metabolism in the transition from rest to steady-state exercise engaging the knee-extensor muscles in young ( n = 15, 25 ± 1 yr) and older ( n = 15, 72 ± 1 yr) subjects before and after a period of … Show more

“…To our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate matching of leg oxygen delivery and uptake in postmenopausal women. In men of similar age, matching of oxygen delivery and uptake is impaired compared with young subjects (31), and in line with our current observations, exercise training has been shown to improve matching of leg oxygen delivery and uptake in older men (32).…”

“…In one group of older life-long sedentary individuals, skeletal muscle O 2 delivery and O 2 uptake were reported to be lower with no compensatory increase in a-vO 2 difference ( Mortensen et al, 2012b ; Nyberg et al, 2012 ), thus indicating impairments in convective and potentially diffusive O 2 transport. In line with this proposition, acute potentiation of cGMP signalling with phosphodiesterase 5 inhibition increases O 2 delivery and utilisation during low-to moderate-intensity exercise in older but not young subjects ( Nyberg et al, 2015b ; Piil et al, 2018 ).…”

“…In the setting of knee-extensor exercise, older individuals display a slower increase in skeletal muscle vascular conductance, blood flow, and O 2 delivery in the transition from rest to steady-state exercise at low- and moderate-intensity ( Piil et al, 2018 ). Notably, the rate of increase in O 2 uptake was similar in the group of young and older individuals because of higher a-vO 2 difference in the older group.…”
