Exercise-induced increase in maximal in vitro Na-K-ATPase activity in human skeletal muscle

Abstract: The present study investigated whether maximal in vitro Na-K-ATPase activity in human skeletal muscle is changed with exercise and whether it was altered by acute hypoxia. Needle biopsies from 14 subjects were obtained from vastus lateralis before and after 4 min of intense muscle activity. In addition, six subjects exercised also in hypoxia (12.5% oxygen). The Na-K-ATPase assay revealed a 19% increase (P < 0.05) in maximal velocity (Vmax) for Na⁺-dependent Na-K-ATPase activity after exercise and a tendency (P… Show more

“…The Na + concentration was either 0, 5 or 40 mM (the ionic strength was kept constant by substituting NaCl with choline chloride). 40 mM Na + has previously been shown to fully activate the Na + dependent Na,K-ATPase activity [4], [13]. Graphs demonstrating the Na + -dependency of the ATPase activity have been published previously [13].…”

“…During intense muscle contractions resulting from cardiac stress, ion gradients across the muscle membrane undergo substantive perturbations, which may lead to disturbances in its excitability and muscle exhaustion. The Na, K‐ATPase partially counteracts these changes through the regulation of the Na + and K + ions, thus playing an important role in establishing muscle function during increased workload . Notably, τ i has been proposed as a measure of Na, K‐ATPase activity, whereas decreases in τ i shown in our study reflect the upregulation of Na, K‐ATPase activity during pharmacological stress.…”

“…This method has recently been criticised as being an inadequate measure of NKA activity during exercise, when intracellular sodium concentration is expected to be elevated and which activates the NKA [33]. Although the method is Na + -insensitive, it remains valid as a marker of NKA activity in resting muscle, when intracellular Na + is not raised.…”
