Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Phosphatase Regulatory Gene Expression Correlates with Exercise Training Insulin Sensitivity Changes.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Whole body insulin sensitivity (Si) typically improves after aerobic exercise training; however, individual responses can be highly variable. The purpose of this study was to use global gene expression to identify skeletal muscle genes that correlate with exercise-induced Si changes.

Methods

Longitudinal cohorts from the Studies of Targeted Risk Reduction Intervention through Defined Exercise were used as Discovery (Affymetrix) and Confirmation (Illumina) of vastus lateralis gene expression profiles. Discovery (n = 39; 21 men) and Confirmation (n = 42; 19 men) cohorts were matched for age (52 ± 8 vs 51 ± 10 yr), body mass index (30.4 ± 2.8 vs 29.7 ± 2.8 kg·m), and V˙O2max (30.4 ± 2.8 vs 29.7 ± 2.8 mL·kg·min). Si was determined via intravenous glucose tolerance test p
