Abstract
PURPOSE Physical activity is an effective therapeutic tool for cardiovascular risk prevention. However, exercise aerobic capacity of patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) has not been thoroughly investigated. Aim of the present study is to evaluate exercise aerobic capacity in patients with T1DM compared to a normal control population. METHODS This observational study included 17 T1DM patients and 17 matched healthy volunteers. Cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) was conducted on an electronically-braked cycle ergometer. Blood samples were collected for evaluation of glycemia and lactate levels. RESULTS Mean oxygen uptake at peak exercise (V'O2,peak) was significantly lower in T1DM subjects (V'O2,peak T1DM 2200 ± 132ml/min vs V'O2,peak Healthy subjects of 2659 ± 120 ml/min p = 0.035). Cardiovascular response analysis did not show statistically significant differences. Respiratory exchange ratio (RER) was significantly higher in healthy subjects at peak exercise and at the first minute of recovery (p = 0.022, p = 0.024). Peak exercise lactate levels were significantly higher in healthy subjects. There was no statistical correlation between CPET results and diabetes-related parameters. CONCLUSIONS Patients affected by T1DM have a worse exercise tolerance than normal subjects. The two groups differed by RER which can be greatly influenced by the substrate type utilized to produce energy. Because of the impaired carbohydrate utilization, T1DM subjects may use a larger amount of lipid substrates, such hypothesis could be strengthened by the lower lactate levels found in T1DM group at peak exercise. The lack of correlation between exercise tolerance and disease-related variables suggests that the alterations found could be independent from the glycemic levels.

Metabolomics approach for analyzing the effects of exercise in subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus. PLoS One 2012; 7:e40600.

Abstract
The beneficial effects of exercise in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are not fully proven, given that it may occasionally induce acute metabolic disturbances. Indeed, the metabolic disturbances associated with sustained exercise may lead to worsening control unless great care is taken to adjust carbohydrate intake and insulin dosage. In this work, pre- and post-exercise metabolites were analyzed using a 1H-NMR and GC-MS untargeted metabolomics approach assayed in serum. We studied ten men with T1D and eleven controls matched for age, body mass index, body fat composition, and cardiorespiratory capacity, participated in the study. The participants performed 30 minutes of exercise on a cycle-ergometer at 80% VO2max. In response to exercise, both groups had increased concentrations of gluconeogenic precursors (alanine and lactate) and tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates (citrate, malate, fumarate and succinate). The T1D group, however, showed attenuation in the response of these metabolites to exercise. Conversely to T1D, the control group also presented increases in α-ketoglutarate, alpha-ketoisocaproic acid, and lipolysis products (glycerol and oleic and linoleic acids), as well as a reduction in branched chain amino acids (valine and leucine) determinations. The T1D patients presented a blunted metabolic response to acute exercise as compared to controls. This attenuated response may interfere in the healthy performance or fitness of T1D patients, something that further studies should elucidate.

Abstract
Persons with conventionally treated insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) appear to be impaired in their ability to reduce fed-state urea production appropriately in response to dietary protein restriction (Hoffer LJ, Taveroff A, and Schiffrin A. Am J Physiol 272: E59-E67, 1997). To determine whether these conclusions apply to whole body sulfur amino acid (SAA) catabolism, we used samples from this protocol to measure daily urinary sulfate excretion and fed-state sulfate production after a high-protein test meal before and after dietary protein restriction. Eight normal subjects and six IDDM subjects treated with twice-daily intermediate- and short-acting insulin consumed a mixed test meal containing 0.50 g protein/kg after adaptation to 4 days of high protein intake (1.28 g protein/kg body wt) and again after 5 days of dietary protein restriction (0.044 g/kg). Adaptation to protein restriction decreased daily urinary sulfate and urea-N excretion by approximately 80%. Over the first 24 h of protein restriction, urinary sulfate excretion decreased more than urea-N excretion for both the normal and IDDM subjects. Under conditions of a high prior protein intake, fed-state sulfate production was normal for the IDDM subjects; protein restriction reduced fed-state sulfate production by 51% (normal subjects) and 59% (IDDM subjects; not significant). We conclude that whole body SAA metabolism is normal in conventionally treated IDDM before and after dietary protein restriction. SAA catabolism, as measured by fed-state sulfate production, may be a convenient and useful method to determine the extent of whole body protein dysregulation in IDDM.

Abstract
Six normal men consumed a mixed test meal while adapted to high (1.5 g. kg(-1) x day(-1)) and low (0.3 g. kg(-1) x day(-1)) protein intakes. They completed this protocol twice: when the test meals included 3 mg/kg of [(15)N]alanine ([(15)N]Ala) and when they included 30 mg/kg of intrinsically labeled [(15)N]Spirulina platensis ([(15)N]SPI). Six subjects with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) receiving conventional insulin therapy consumed the test meal with added [(15)N]Ala while adapted to their customary high-protein diet. Protein restriction increased serum alanine, glycine, glutamine, and methionine concentrations and reduced those of leucine. Whether the previous diet was high or low in protein, there was a similar increase in serum alanine, methionine, and branched-chain amino acid concentrations after the test meal and a similar pattern of (15)N enrichment in serum amino acids for a given tracer. When [(15)N]Ala was included in the test meal, (15)N appeared rapidly in serum alanine and glutamine, to a minor degree in leucine and isoleucine, and not at all in other circulating amino acids. With [(15)N]SPI, there was a slow appearance of the label in all serum amino acids analyzed. Despite the different serum amino acid labeling, protein restriction reduced the postmeal transfer of dietary (15)N in [(15)N]Ala or [(15)N]SPI into [(15)N]urea by similar amounts (38 and 43%, respectively, not significant). The response of the subjects with IDDM was similar to that of the normal subjects. Information about adaptive reductions in dietary amino acid catabolism obtained by adding [(15)N]Ala to a test meal appears to be equivalent to that obtained using an intrinsically labeled protein tracer.

Abstract
We studied subjects with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and controls by administering primed continuous infusions of L-[1-13C,15N)]leucine and L-[2,3-13C2]alanine to measure whole body and forearm metabolism of these amino acids during ample protein intake and again after 4 wk of moderately restricted protein intake. Decreased rates of whole body protein degradation, leucine transamination, leucine oxidation, and increased forearm alanine release produced by dietary protein restriction occurred equivalently in IDDM subjects under short-term tightly managed glycemia and in controls. Dietary protein restriction did not affect whole body alanine appearance or forearm leucine appearance, disposal, or balance in IDDM subjects or controls. IDDM subjects differed from controls only in that normal forearm leucine balance was maintained at higher rates of leucine appearance and disposal. We conclude that IDDM subjects adapt normally to dietary protein restriction. Undernutrition during moderate protein deprivation in these patients likely occurs during episodes of poor glycemic control.
