This study measured exogenous glucose oxidation rates during exercise using 13C-glucose tracer and two calculation methods. Results showed consistent oxidation rates across different enrichment levels, aiding exercise metabolism research.

Area of Science:

  • Exercise Physiology
  • Nutritional Biochemistry
  • Stable Isotope Tracing

Background:

  • Accurate measurement of exogenous glucose oxidation is crucial for understanding exercise metabolism.
  • Previous methods using 14C-glucose have limitations.
  • Stable isotopes like 13C offer a safer alternative for tracing substrate utilization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To measure exogenous glucose oxidation rates during exercise using 13C-glucose.
  • To evaluate two computation procedures accounting for endogenous substrate oxidation (Rendo).
  • To compare 13C-glucose oxidation results with existing 14C-glucose studies.

Main Methods:

  • Eight subjects performed four exercise trials (68% VO2max, 90 min) on a cycle ergometer.
  • 30g of 13C-glucose at varying enrichment levels was ingested post-30 min exercise.

  • CO2 analysis measured 13C enrichment to calculate glucose oxidation, accounting for Rendo.
  • Main Results:

    • Rendo significantly increased from rest to exercise.
    • Exogenous glucose oxidized in the last hour of exercise was 14.9 ± 4.4 g (Trials A/B) and 13.0 ± 4.2 g (Trial C).
    • These amounts represented 7.4% and 6.3% of total energy expenditure, respectively.

    Conclusions:

    • Two computation procedures using 13C-glucose provided comparable exogenous glucose oxidation rates during exercise.
    • The method effectively accounts for endogenous substrate contributions to CO2.
    • 13C-glucose is a viable tracer for quantifying substrate utilization during physical activity.
