For estimating the
oxidation rates (Rox) of glucose and other substrates by use of
13C-labeled tracers, we obtained correction factors to
account for label dilution in endogenous bicarbonate pools and TCA
cycle exchange reactions. Fractional recoveries of 13C
label in respiratory gases were determined during 225 min of rest and
90 min of leg cycle ergometry at 45 and 65% peak oxygen uptake
(
O2 peak) after continuous infusions of
[1-13C]acetate, [2-13C]acetate, or
NaH13CO3. In parallel trials,
[6,6-2H]glucose and [1-13C]glucose were
given. Experiments were conducted after an overnight fast with exercise
commencing 12 h after the last meal. During the transition from
rest to exercise, CO2 production increased (P < 0.05) in an intensity-dependent manner.
Significant differences were observed in the fractional recoveries of
13C label as 13CO2 at rest
(NaH13CO3, 77.5 ± 2.8%;
[1-13C]acetate, 49.8 ± 2.4%;
[2-13C]acetate, 26.1 ± 1.4%). During exercise,
fractional recoveries of 13C label from
[1-13C]acetate, [2-13C]acetate, and
NaH13CO3 were increased compared with rest.
Magnitudes of label recoveries during both exercise intensities were
tracer specific (NaH13CO3, 93%;
[1-13C]acetate, 80%; [2-13C]acetate,
65%). Use of an acetate-derived correction factor for estimating
glucose oxidation resulted in Rox values in excess (P < 0.05) of glucose rate of disappearance during hard exercise. We
conclude that, after an overnight fast: 1) recovery of
13C label as 13CO2 from
[13C]acetate is decreased compared with bicarbonate;
2) the position of 13C acetate label affects
carbon dilution estimations; 3) recovery of 13C
label increases in the transition from rest to exercise in an isotope-dependent manner; and 4) application of an acetate
correction factor in glucose oxidation measurements results in
oxidation rates in excess of glucose disappearance during exercise at
65% of
O2 peak. Therefore,
bicarbonate, not acetate, correction factors are advocated for
estimating glucose oxidation from carbon tracers in exercising men.
