This study determined whether rates of
protein synthesis increase after acute resistance exercise in skeletal
muscle from severely diabetic rats. Previous studies consistently show
that postexercise rates of protein synthesis are elevated in
nondiabetic and moderately diabetic rats. Severely diabetic rats
performed acute resistance exercise (n = 8) or remained sedentary (n = 8). A
group of nondiabetic age-matched rats served as controls
(n = 9). Rates of protein synthesis
were measured 16 h after exercise. Plasma glucose concentrations were
>500 mg/dl in the diabetic rats. Rates of protein synthesis (nmol

means ± SE) were not different between exercised (117 ± 7) and sedentary (106 ± 9) diabetic rats but were significantly
(P < 0.05) lower than in sedentary
nondiabetic rats (162 ± 9) and in exercised nondiabetic rats
(197 ± 7). Circulating insulin concentrations were 442 ± 65 pM
in nondiabetic rats and 53 ± 11 and 72 ± 19 pM in sedentary and
exercised diabetic rats, respectively. Plasma insulin-like growth
factor I concentrations were reduced by 33% in diabetic rats compared
with nondiabetic rats, and there was no difference between exercised
and sedentary diabetic rats. Muscle insulin-like growth factor I was
not affected by resistance exercise in diabetic rats. The results show
that there is a critical concentration of insulin below which rates of
protein synthesis begin to decline in vivo. In contrast to previous
studies using less diabetic rats, severely diabetic rats cannot
increase rates of protein synthesis after acute resistance exercise.
