Abstract:
This investigation examined the influence of 12-week ballistic resistance training programs on the IGF-I system in circulation, interstitial fluid, and skeletal muscle, at rest and in response to acute exercise. Seventeen college-aged subjects (11 women/6 men; 21.7 ± 3.7 yr) completed an acute ballistic exercise bout before and after the training program. Blood samples were collected pre-, mid-, and postexercise and analyzed for serum total IGF-I, free IGF-I, and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) 1–4. Dialysate and interstitial free IGF-I were analyzed in vastus lateralis (VL) interstitial fluid collected pre- and postexercise via microdialysis. Pre- and postexercise VL muscle biopsies were analyzed for IGF-I protein expression, IGF-I receptor phosphorylation (p-IGF-IR), and AKT phosphorylation (p-AKT). Following training, basal serum IGF-I, free IGF-I, IGFBP-2, and IGFBP-3 decreased whereas IGFBP-1 and IGFBP-4 increased. Training reduced basal dialysate and interstitial free IGF-I but had no effect on basal skeletal muscle IGF-I, p-IGF-IR, or p-AKT. Acute exercise elicited transient changes in IGF-I system concentrations and downstream anabolic signaling both pre- and posttraining; training did not affect this acute exercise response. Posttraining, acute exercise-induced changes in dialysate/interstitial free IGF-I were strongly correlated with the changes in intramuscular IGF-I expression, p-IGF-IR, and p-AKT. The divergent influence of resistance training on circulating/interstitial and skeletal muscle IGF-I demonstrates the importance of concurrent, multiple biocompartment analysis when examining the IGF-I system. As training elicited muscle hypertrophy, these findings indicate that IGF-I’s anabolic effects on skeletal muscle are mediated by local, rather than systemic mechanisms. NEW & NOTEWORTHY In the first investigation to assess resistance training’s effects on the IGF-I system in serum, interstitial fluid, and skeletal muscle, training decreased basal circulating and interstitial IGF-I but did not alter basal intramuscular IGF-I protein activity. Posttraining, acute exercise-induced interstitial IGF-I increases were strongly correlated with intramuscular IGF-I expression and signaling. These findings highlight the importance of multibiocompartment measurement when analyzing IGF-I and suggest that IGF-I’s role in hypertrophic adaptations is locally mediated.
