Skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity
is enhanced after acute exercise and short-term endurance training. We
investigated the impact of exercise on the gene expression of key
insulin-signaling proteins in humans. Seven untrained subjects (4 women
and 3 men) completed 9 days of cycling at 63 ± 2% of peak
O2 uptake for 60 min/day. Muscle biopsies were taken
before, immediately after, and 3 h after the exercise bouts (on
days 1 and 9). The gene expression of insulin
receptor substrate-2 and the p85
subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase was significantly higher 3 h after a single exercise bout, although short-term training ameliorated this effect. Gene expression of insulin receptor and insulin receptor substrate-1 was not
significantly altered at any time point. These results suggest that
exercise may have a transitory impact on the expression of insulin
receptor substrate-2 and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; however, the
predominant actions of exercise on insulin sensitivity appear not to
reside in the transcriptional activation of the genes encoding major
insulin-signaling proteins.
