Role of convective O2 delivery in determining VO2 on-kinetics in canine muscle contracting at peak VO2

A previous study (Grassi B, Gladden LB, Samaja M, Stary CM, and Hogan MC, J Appl Physiol 85: 1394-1403, 1998) showed that convective O2 delivery to muscle did not limit O2 uptake (VO2) on-kinetics during transitions from rest to contractions at ~60% of peak VO2. The present study aimed to determine whether this finding is also true for transitions involving contractions of higher metabolic intensities. VO2 on-kinetics were determined in isolated canine gastrocnemius muscles in situ (n = 5) during transitions from rest to 4 min of electrically stimulated isometric tetanic contractions corresponding to the muscle peak VO2. Two conditions were compared: 1) spontaneous adjustment of muscle blood flow (Q) (Control) and 2) pump-perfused Q, adjusted ~15-30 s before contractions at a constant level corresponding to the steady-state value during contractions in Control (Fast O2 Delivery). In Fast O2 Delivery, adenosine was infused intra-arterially. Q was measured continuously in the popliteal vein; arterial and popliteal venous O2 contents were measured at rest and at 5- to 7-s intervals during the transition. Muscle VO2 was determined as Q times the arteriovenous blood O2 content difference. The time to reach 63% of the VO2 difference between resting baseline and steady-state values during contractions was 24.9 ± 1.6 (SE) s in Control and 18.5 ± 1.8 s in Fast O2 Delivery (P < 0.05). Faster VO2 on-kinetics in Fast O2 Delivery was associated with an ~30% reduction in the calculated O2 deficit and with less muscle fatigue. During transitions involving contractions at peak VO2, convective O2 delivery to muscle, together with an inertia of oxidative metabolism, contributes in determining the VO2 on-kinetics.
