Abstract
Sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum calcium (Ca2+) ATPase (SERCA) transports Ca2+ in muscle. Impaired SERCA activity contributes to diabetic myopathy. Sirtuin (SIRT) 3 regulates muscle metabolism and function. However, it is unknown if SIRT3 regulates muscle SERCA activity. We determined if SIRT3 overexpression enhances SERCA activity in mouse gastrocnemius muscle and if SIRT3 overexpression preserves gastrocnemius SERCA activity in a model of type 2 diabetes, induced by high fat-high sucrose (HFHS)-feeding. We also determined if the acetylation status of SERCA proteins in mouse gastrocnemius is altered by SIRT3 overexpression or HFHS-feeding. Wild-type (WT) mice and SIRT3 transgenic (SIRT3TG) mice, overexpressing SIRT3 in skeletal muscle, were fed a standard- or HFHS-diet for 4-months. SIRT3TG and WT mice developed obesity and glucose intolerance after 4-months of HFHS-feeding. SERCA Vmax was higher in gastrocnemius of SIRT3TG mice, compared to WT mice. HFHS-fed mice had lower SERCA1a protein levels and lower SERCA Vmax in their gastrocnemius than control-fed mice. The decrease in SERCA Vmax in gastrocnemius muscle due to HFHS-feeding was attenuated by SIRT3 overexpression in HFHS-fed SIRT3TG mice. SERCA1a and SERCA2a acetylation in mouse gastrocnemius was not altered by genotype or diet. These findings suggest SIRT3 overexpression improves SERCA function in diabetic mouse skeletal muscle.

Abstract
KEY POINTS When muscle biopsies first began to be used routinely in research on exercise physiology five decades ago, it soon become clear that the muscle content of glycogen is an important determinant of exercise performance. Glycogen particles are stored in distinct pools within the muscles, but the role of each pool during exercise and how this is affected by diet is unknown. Here, the effects of diet and exercise on these pools, as well as their relation to endurance during prolonged cycling were examined. We demonstrate here that an improved endurance capacity with high carbohydrate loading is associated with a temporal shift in the utilisation of the distinct stores of glycogen pools and is closely linked to the content of the glycogen pool closest to actin and myosin (intramyofibrillar glycogen). These findings highlight the functional importance of distinguishing between different subcellular microcompartments of glycogen in individual muscle fibres. ABSTRACT In muscle cells, glycogen is stored in three distinct subcellular pools: between or within myofibrils (inter- and intramyofibrillar glycogen, respectively) or beneath the sarcolemma (subsarcolemmal glycogen) and these pools may well have different functions. Here, we investigated the effect of diet and exercise on the content of these distinct pools and their relation to endurance capacity in type 1 and 2 muscle fibres. Following consumption of three different diets (normal, mixed diet = MIX, high in carbohydrate = HIGH, or low in carbohydrate = LOW) for 72 h, 11 men cycled at 75% of V ̇ O 2 max until exhaustion. The volumetric content of the glycogen pools in muscle biopsies obtained before, during, and after exercise were quantified by transmission electron micrographs. The mean (SD) time to exhaustion was 150 (30), 112 (22), and 69 (18) minutes in the HIGH, MIX and LOW trials, respectively (P < 0.001). As shown by multiple regression analyses, the intramyofibrillar glycogen content in type 1 fibres, particularly after 60 min of exercise, correlated most strongly with time to exhaustion. In the HIGH trial, intramyofibrillar glycogen was spared during the initial 60 min of exercise, which was associated with levels and utilisation of subsarcolemmal glycogen above normal. In all trials, utilisation of subsarcolemmal and intramyofibrillar glycogen was more pronounced than that of intermyofibrillar glycogen in relative terms. In conclusion, the muscle pool of intramyofibrillar glycogen appears to be the most important for endurance capacity in humans. In addition, a local abundance of subsarcolemmal glycogen reduces the utilisation of intramyofibrillar glycogen during exercise.

Abstract
The sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) is responsible for transporting calcium (Ca(2+)) from the cytosol into the lumen of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) following muscular contraction. The Ca(2+) sequestering activity of SERCA facilitates muscular relaxation in both cardiac and skeletal muscle. There are more than 10 distinct isoforms of SERCA expressed in different tissues. SERCA2a is the primary isoform expressed in cardiac tissue, whereas SERCA1a is the predominant isoform expressed in fast-twitch skeletal muscle. The Ca(2+) sequestering activity of SERCA is regulated at the level of protein content and is further modified by the endogenous proteins phospholamban (PLN) and sarcolipin (SLN). Additionally, several novel mechanisms, including post-translational modifications and microRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as integral regulators of Ca(2+) transport activity. These regulatory mechanisms are clinically relevant, as dysregulated SERCA function has been implicated in the pathology of several disease states, including heart failure. Currently, several clinical trials are underway that utilize novel therapeutic approaches to restore SERCA2a activity in humans. The purpose of this review is to examine the regulatory mechanisms of the SERCA pump, with a particular emphasis on the influence of exercise in preventing the pathological conditions associated with impaired SERCA function.

Abstract
Moderate and chronic bouts of exercise may lead to positive metabolic, molecular, and morphological adaptations, improving health. Although exercise training stimulates the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), their overall intracellular concentration may not reach damaging levels due to enhancement of antioxidant responses. However, inadequate exercise training (i.e., single bout of high-intensity or excessive exercise) may result in oxidative stress, muscle fatigue and muscle injury. Moreover, during the recovery period, impaired immunity has been reported, for example; excessive-inflammation and compensatory immunosuppression. Nutritional supplements, sometimes referred to as immuno-nutrients, may be required to reduce immunosuppression and excessive inflammation. Herein, we discuss the action and the possible targets of key immuno-nutrients such as L-glutamine, L-arginine, branched chain amino acids (BCAA) and whey protein.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sprint training is associated with several beneficial adaptations in skeletal muscle, including an enhancement of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) release. Unfortunately, several patient populations (e.g., the elderly, those with cardiac dysfunction) that might derive great benefit from sprint exercise are unlikely to tolerate it. The purpose of this report was to describe the development of a tolerable neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) protocol that induces skeletal muscle adaptations similar to those observed with sprint training. METHODS Our NMES protocol was modeled after a published sprint exercise protocol and used a novel electrode configuration and stimulation sequence to provide adequate training stimulus while maintaining subject tolerance. Nine young, healthy subjects (four men) began and completed the training protocol of the knee extensor muscles. RESULTS All subjects completed the protocol, with ratings of discomfort far less than those reported in studies of traditional NMES. Training induced significant increases in SR Ca(2+) release and citrate synthase activity (~16% and 32%, respectively), but SR Ca(2+) uptake did not change. The percentage of myosin heavy chain IIx isoform was decreased significantly after training. At the whole muscle level, neither central activation nor maximum voluntary isometric contraction force were significantly altered, although isometric force did exhibit a trend toward an increase (~3%, P = 0.055). Surprisingly, the NMES training produced a significant increase in muscle cross-sectional area (~3%, P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS It seems that an appropriately designed NMES protocol can mimic many of the benefits of sprint exercise training, with a low overall time commitment and training volume. These findings suggest that NMES has the potential to bring the benefits of sprint exercise to individuals who are unable to tolerate traditional sprint training.

Abstract
AIM The mechanisms underlying the fatigue that occurs in human muscle following sustained activity are thought to reside in one or more of the excitation-contraction coupling (E-C coupling) processes. This study investigated the association between the changes in select E-C coupling properties and the impairment in force generation that occurs with prolonged cycling. METHODS Ten volunteers with a peak aerobic power (VO(2peak)) of 2.95 ± 0.27 L min(-1) (mean ± SE), exercised for 2 h at 62 ± 1.3%. Quadriceps function was assessed and tissue properties (vastus lateralis) were measured prior to (E1-pre) and following (E1-post) exercise and on three consecutive days of recovery (R1, R2 and R3). RESULTS While exercise failed to depress the maximal activity (V(max) ) of the Na(+) ,K(+) -ATPase (P = 0.10), reductions (P < 0.05) were found at E1-post in V(max) of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) -ATPase (-22%), Ca(2+) -uptake (-26%) and phase 1(-33%) and 2 (-38%) Ca(2+) -release. Both V(max) and Ca(2+) -release (phase 2) recovered by R1, whereas Ca(2+) -uptake and Ca(2+) -release (phase 1) remained depressed (P < 0.05) at R1 and at R1 and R2 and possibly R3 (P < 0.06) respectively. Compared with E1-pre, fatigue was observed (P < 0.05) at 10 Hz electrical stimulation at E1-post (-56%), which persisted throughout recovery. The exercise increased (P < 0.05) overall content of the Na(+), K(+)-ATPase (R1, R2 and R3) and the isoforms β2 (R1, R2 and R3) and β3 (R3), but not β1 or the α-isoforms (α1, α2 and α3). CONCLUSION These results suggest a possible direct role for Ca(2+)-release in fatigue and demonstrate a single exercise session can induce overlapping perturbations and adaptations (particularly to the Na(+), K(+)-ATPase).

Abstract
AIM Reduced muscle force greater than expected from loss of muscle mass has been reported in ageing muscles. Impaired sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) release has been implicated as a possible mechanism, and attributed to several factors, including loss of ryanodine receptor (RYR) expression and protein binding. The aim of this study was to evaluate muscle quality and SR Ca(2+) release in ageing rats that were not so old that major atrophy had occurred. METHODS We collected in situ force data from the plantarflexor muscle group and muscle mass from the constituent muscles to determine muscle quality (force/mass) in adult (6-8 months) and ageing (24 months) rats (n=8/group). We evaluated SR Ca(2+) uptake and release, and determined expression of key proteins associated with Ca(2+) release [RYR and FK506 binding protein (FKBP)] and uptake (SERCA, parvalbumin, calsequestrin). RESULTS Plantarflexor force and muscle quality were reduced with ageing (approx. 28 and 34%, respectively), but atrophy was limited, and significant only in the medial gastrocnemius (approx. 15%). The fast phase of SR Ca(2+) release was reduced with ageing in both gastrocnemii, as was FKBP expression and FKBP-RYR binding, but RYR expression was not affected. Similar, but non-significant changes were present in the plantaris, but the soleus muscle generally showed no ageing-related changes. CONCLUSION These data suggest a possible role for impaired SR Ca(2+) release in ageing-related loss of muscle quality, although not through loss of RYR expression.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the hypothesis that the metabolic adaptations observed during steady-state exercise soon after the onset of training would be displayed during the nonsteady period of moderate exercise and would occur in the absence of increases in peak aerobic power (Vo2peak) and in muscle oxidative potential. Nine untrained males [age = 20.8 +/- 0.70 (SE) yr] performed a cycle task at 62% Vo2peak before (Pre-T) and after (Post-T) training for 2 h/day for 5 days at task intensity. Tissue samples extracted from the vastus lateralis at 0 min (before exercise) and at 10, 60, and 180 s of exercise, indicated that at Pre-T, reductions (P < 0.05) in phosphocreatine and increases (P < 0.05) in creatine, inorganic phosphate, calculated free ADP, and free AMP occurred at 60 and 180 s but not at 10 s. At Post-T, the concentrations of all metabolites were blunted (P < 0.05) at 60 s. Training also reduced (P < 0.05) the increase in lactate and the lactate-to-pyruvate ratio observed during exercise at Pre-T. These adaptations occurred in the absence of change in Vo2peak (47.8 +/- 1.7 vs. 49.2 +/- 1.7 mlxkg(-1)xmin(-1)) and in the activities (molxkg protein(-1)xh(-1)) of succinic dehydrogenase (3.48 +/- 0.21 vs. 3.77 +/- 0.35) and citrate synthase (7.48 +/- 0.61 vs. 8.52 +/- 0.65) but not cytochrome oxidase (70.8 +/- 5.1 vs. 79.6 +/- 6.6 U/g protein; P < 0.05). It is concluded that the tighter metabolic control observed following short-term training is initially expressed during the nonsteady state, probably as a result of increases in oxidative phosphorylation that is not dependent on changes in Vo2peak while the role of oxidative potential remains uncertain.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that alterations in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-cycling properties would occur in skeletal muscle in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). To investigate this hypothesis, tissue samples were obtained from the vastus lateralis of 8 patients with COPD [age 65.6 ± 3.2 yr; forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) = 44 ± 2%; mean ± SE] and 10 healthy age-matched controls (CON, age 67.5 ± 2.5 yr; FEV1/FVC = 77 ± 2%), and homogenates were analyzed for a wide range of SR properties. Compared with CON, COPD displayed (in μmol·g protein−1·min−1) a 16% lower maximal Ca2+-ATPase activity [maximal velocity ( Vmax), 158 ± 10 vs. 133 ± 7, P < 0.05] and a 17% lower Ca2+uptake (4.65 ± 0.039 vs. 3.85 ± 0.26, P < 0.05) that occurred in the absence of differences in Ca2+release. The lower Vmaxin COPD was also accompanied by an 11% lower ( P < 0.05) Ca2+sensitivity, as measured by the Hill coefficient (defined as the relationship between Ca2+-ATPase activity and free cytosolic Ca2+concentration for 10–90% Vmax). For the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) isoforms, SERCA1a was 16% higher ( P < 0.05) and SERCA2a was 14% lower ( P < 0.05) in COPD. It is concluded that moderate to severe COPD results in abnormalities in SR Ca2+-ATPase properties that cannot be explained by changes in the SERCA isoform phenotypes. The reduced catalytic properties of SERCA in COPD suggest a disturbance in Ca2+cycling, possibly resulting in impairment in Ca2+-mediated mechanical function and/or second messenger regulated processes.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of prolonged exercise, with and without glucose supplementation, on metabolism and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-handling properties in working vastus lateralis muscle. Fifteen untrained volunteers [peak O2consumption (V̇o2peak) = 3.45 ± 0.17 l/min; mean ± SE] cycled at ∼60% V̇o2peakon two occasions, during which they were provided with either an artificially sweetened placebo beverage (NG) or a 6% glucose (G) beverage (∼1.00 g carbohydrate/kg body mass). Beverage supplementation started at 30 min of exercise and continued every 15 min thereafter. SR Ca2+handling, metabolic, and substrate responses were assessed in tissue extracted from the vastus lateralis at rest, after 30 min and 90 min of exercise, and at fatigue in both conditions. Plasma glucose during G was 15–23% higher ( P < 0.05) than those observed during NG following 60 min of exercise until fatigue. Cycle time to fatigue was increased ( P < 0.05) by ∼19% during G (137 ± 7 min) compared with NG (115 ± 6 min). Prolonged exercise reduced ( P < 0.05) maximal Ca2+-ATPase activity (−18.4%), SR Ca2+uptake (−27%), and both Phase 1 (−22.2%) and Phase 2 (−34.2%) Ca2+-release rates during NG. The exercise-induced reductions in SR Ca2+-cycling properties were not altered during G. The metabolic responses to exercise were all unaltered by glucose supplementation, since no differences in respiratory exchange ratios, carbohydrate and lipid oxidation rates, and muscle metabolite and glycogen contents were observed between NG and G. These results indicate that the maintenance of blood glucose homeostasis by glucose supplementation is without effect in modifying the muscle metabolic, endogenous glycogen, or SR Ca2+-handling responses.

Abstract
The study investigated the hypothesis that three consecutive days of prolonged cycle exercise would result in a sustained reduction in the Ca(2+)-cycling properties of the vastus lateralis in the absence of changes in the sarcoplasmic (endoplasmic) reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) protein. Tissue samples were obtained at preexercise (Pre) and postexercise (Post) on day 1 (E1) and day 3 (E3) and during recovery day 1 (R1), day 2 (R2), and day 3 (R3) in 12 active but untrained volunteers (age 19.2 +/- 0.27 yr; mean +/- SE) and analyzed for changes (nmol.mg protein(-1).min(-1)) in maximal Ca(2+)-ATPase activity (V(max)), Ca(2+) uptake and Ca(2+) release (phase 1 and phase 2), and SERCA isoform expression (SERCA1a and SERCA2a). At E1, reductions (P < 0.05) from Pre to Post in V(max) (150 +/- 7 vs. 121 +/- 7), Ca(2+) uptake (7.79 +/- 0.28 vs. 5.71 +/- 0.33), and both phases of Ca(2+) release (phase 1, 20.3 +/- 1.3 vs. 15.2 +/- 1.1; phase 2, 7.70 +/- 0.60 vs. 4.99 +/- 0.48) were found. In contrast to V(max), which recovered at Pre E3 and then remained stable at Post E3 and throughout recovery, Ca(2+) uptake remained depressed (P < 0.05) at E3 Pre and Post and at R1 as did phase 2 of Ca(2+) release. Exercise resulted in an increase (P < 0.05) in SERCA1a (14% at R2) but not SERCA2a. It is concluded that rapidly adapting mechanisms protect V(max) following the onset of regular exercise but not Ca(2+) uptake and Ca(2+) release.

Abstract
Regulation of maximal Na+-K+-ATPase activity in vastus lateralis muscle was investigated in response to prolonged exercise with (G) and without (NG) oral glucose supplements. Fifteen untrained volunteers (14 males and 1 female) with a peak aerobic power (V̇o2peak) of 44.8 ± 1.9 ml·kg−1·min−1; mean ± SE cycled at ∼57% V̇o2peak to fatigue during both NG (artificial sweeteners) and G (6.13 ± 0.09% glucose) in randomized order. Consumption of beverage began at 30 min and continued every 15 min until fatigue. Time to fatigue was increased ( P < 0.05) in G compared with NG (137 ± 7 vs. 115 ± 6 min). Maximal Na+-K+-ATPase activity (Vmax) as measured by the 3- O-methylfluorescein phosphatase assay (nmol·mg−1·h−1) was not different between conditions prior to exercise (85.2 ± 3.3 or 86.0 ± 3.9), at 30 min (91.4 ± 4.7 vs. 91.9 ± 4.1) and at fatigue (92.8 ± 4.3 vs. 100 ± 5.0) but was higher ( P < 0.05) in G at 90 min (86.7 ± 4.2 vs. 109 ± 4.1). Na+-K+-ATPase content (βmax) measured by the vanadate facilitated [3H]ouabain-binding technique (pmol/g wet wt) although elevated ( P < 0.05) by exercise (0<30, 90, and fatigue) was not different between NG and G. At 60 and 90 min of exercise, blood glucose was higher ( P < 0.05) in G compared with NG. The G condition also resulted in higher ( P < 0.05) serum insulin at similar time points to glucose and lower ( P < 0.05) plasma epinephrine and norepinephrine at 90 min of exercise and at fatigue. These results suggest that G results in an increase in Vmax by mechanisms that are unclear.

Abstract
We employed a glycogen-depleting session of exercise followed by a low-carbohydrate (CHO) diet to investigate modifications that occur in muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-cycling properties compared with low-CHO diet alone. SR properties were assessed in nine untrained males [peak aerobic power (V̇o2 peak) = 43.6 ± 2.6 (SE) ml·kg−1·min−1] during prolonged cycle exercise to fatigue performed at ∼58% V̇o2 peakafter 4 days of low-CHO diet (Lo CHO) and after glycogen-depleting exercise plus 4 days of low-CHO (Ex+Lo CHO). Compared with Lo CHO, Ex+Lo CHO resulted in 12% lower ( P < 0.05) resting maximal Ca2+-ATPase activity ( Vmax= 174 ± 12 vs. 153 ± 10 μmol·g protein−1·min−1) and smaller reduction in Vmaxinduced during exercise. A similar effect was observed for Ca2+uptake. The Hill coefficient, defined as slope of the relationship between cytosolic free Ca2+concentration and Ca2+-ATPase activity, was higher ( P < 0.05) at rest (2.07 ± 0.15 vs. 1.90 ± 0.10) with Ex+Lo CHO, an effect that persisted throughout the exercise. The coupling ratio, defined as the ratio of Ca2+uptake to Vmax, was 23–30% elevated ( P < 0.05) at rest and during the first 60 min of exercise with Ex+Lo CHO. The ∼27 and 34% reductions ( P < 0.05) in phase 1 and phase 2 Ca2+release, respectively, observed during exercise with Lo CHO were not altered by Ex+Lo CHO. These results indicate that when prolonged exercise precedes a short-term Lo CHO diet, Ca2+sequestration properties and efficiency are improved compared with those during Lo CHO alone.

Abstract
The effects of exercise and diet on sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-cycling properties in female vastus lateralis muscle were investigated in two groups of women following four different conditions. The conditions were 4 days of a low-carbohydrate (Lo CHO) and glycogen-depleting exercise plus a Lo CHO diet (Ex + Lo CHO) (experiment 2) and 4 days of normal CHO (Norm CHO) and glycogen-depleting exercise plus Norm CHO (Ex + Norm CHO) (experiment 1). Peak aerobic power (Vo2peak)) was 38.1 +/- 1.4 (SE); n = 9 and 35.6 +/- 1.4 ml.kg(-1).min(-1); n = 9, respectively. Sarcoplasmic reticulum properties measured in vitro in homogenates (micromol.g protein(-1).min(-1)) indicated exercise-induced reductions (P < 0.05) in maximal Ca(2+)-ATPase activity (0 > 30, 60 min > fatigue), Ca(2+) uptake (0 > 30 > 60 min, fatigue), and Ca(2+) release, both phase 1 (0, 30 > 60 min, fatigue) and phase 2 (0 > 30, 60 min, fatigue; 30 min > fatigue) in Norm CHO. Exercise was without effect in altering the Hill slope (n(H)), defined as the slope of relationship between Ca(2+)-ATPase activity and Ca(2+) concentration. No differences were observed between Norm CHO and Ex+Norm CHO. Compared with Norm CHO, Lo CHO resulted in a lower (P < 0.05) Ca(2+) uptake, phase 1 Ca(2+) release (30 min), and n(H). Ex + Lo CHO resulted in a greater (P < 0.05) Ca(2+) uptake and n(H) compared with Lo CHO. The results demonstrate that Lo CHO alone can disrupt SR Ca(2+) cycling and that, with the exception of Ca(2+) release, a glycogen-depleting session of exercise before Lo CHO can reverse the effects.

Abstract
The hypothesis tested was that disturbances in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-cycling responses to exercise would associate with muscle glycogen reserves. Ten untrained males [peak O2 consumption (VO2 peak) = 3.41 +/- 0.20 (SE) l/min] performed a standardized cycle test (approximately 70% VO2 peak) on two occasions, namely, following 4 days of a high (Hi CHO)- and 4 days of a low (Lo CHO)-carbohydrate diet. Both Hi CHO and Lo CHO were preceded by a session of prolonged exercise designed to deplete muscle glycogen. SR Ca2+ cycling in crude homogenates prepared from vastus lateralis samples indicated higher (P < 0.05) Ca2+ uptake (microM x g protein(-1) x min(-1)) in Hi CHO compared with Lo CHO at 30 min (2.93 +/- 0.10 vs. 2.23 +/- 0.12) and at 67 min (2.77 +/- 0.16 vs. 2.10 +/- 0.12) of exercise, the point of fatigue in Lo CHO. Similar effects (P < 0.05) were noted between conditions for maximal Ca2+-ATPase (microM x g protein(-1) x min(-1)) at 30 min (142 +/- 8.5 vs. 107 +/- 5.0) and at 67 min (130 +/- 4.5 vs. 101 +/- 4.7). Both phase 1 and phase 2 Ca2+ release were 23 and 37% higher (P < 0.05) at 30 min of exercise and 15 and 34% higher (P < 0.05), at 67 min during Hi CHO compared with Lo CHO, respectively. No differences between conditions were observed at rest for any of these SR properties. Total muscle glycogen (mmol glucosyl units/kg dry wt) was higher (P < 0.05) in Hi CHO compared with Lo CHO at rest (+36%), 30 min (+53%), and at 67 min (+44%) of cycling. These results indicate that exercise-induced reductions in SR Ca2+-cycling properties occur earlier in exercise during low glycogen states compared with high glycogen states.
