Molecular adaptations in human skeletal muscle to endurance training under simulated hypoxic conditions

Abstract

This study was performed to explore changes in gene expression as a consequence of exercise training at two levels of intensity under normoxic and normobaric hypoxic conditions (corresponding to an altitude of 3,850 m). Four groups of human subjects trained five times a week for a total of 6 wk on a bicycle ergometer. Muscle biopsies were taken, and performance tests were carried out before and after the training period. Similar increases in maximal O 2 uptake (8.3–13.1%) and maximal power output (11.4–20.8%) were found in all groups. RT-PCR revealed elevated mRNA concentrations of the α-subunit of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) after both high- (+82.4%) and low (+78.4%)-intensity training under hypoxic conditions. The mRNA of HIF-1α 736, a splice variant of HIF-1α newly detected in human skeletal muscle, was shown to be changed in a similar pattern as HIF-1α. Increased mRNA contents of myoglobin (+72.2%) and vascular endothelial growth factor (+52.4%) were evoked only after high-intensity training in hypoxia. Augmented mRNA levels of oxidative enzymes, phosphofructokinase, and heat shock protein 70 were found after high-intensity training under both hypoxic and normoxic conditions. Our findings suggest that HIF-1 is specifically involved in the regulation of muscle adaptations after hypoxia training. Fine-tuning of the training response is recognized at the molecular level, and with less sensitivity also at the structural level, but not at global functional responses like maximal O 2 uptake or maximal power output.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
