We compared the
changes in monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) and 4 (MCT4) proteins
in heart and skeletal muscles in sedentary control and streptozotocin
(STZ)-induced diabetic rats (3 wk) and in trained (3 wk) control and
STZ-induced diabetic animals. In nondiabetic animals, training
increased MCT1 in the plantaris (+51%; P < 0.01) but
not in the soleus (+9%) or the heart (+14%). MCT4 was increased in
the plantaris (+48%; P < 0.01) but not in the soleus
muscles of trained nondiabetic animals. In sedentary diabetic animals,
MCT1 was reduced in the heart (
30%), and in the plantaris (
31%;
P < 0.01) and soleus (
26%) muscles. MCT4 content
was also reduced in sedentary diabetic animals in the plantaris
(
52%; P < 0.01) and soleus (
25%) muscles. In
contrast, in trained diabetic animals, MCT1 and MCT4 in heart and/or
muscle were similar to those of sedentary, nondiabetic animals
(P > 0.05) but were markedly greater than in the
sedentary diabetic animals [MCT1: plantaris +63%, soleus +51%,
heart +51% (P > 0.05); MCT4: plantaris +107%,
soleus +17% (P > 0.05)]. These studies have shown that 1) with STZ-induced diabetes, MCT1 and MCT4 are reduced
in skeletal muscle and/or the heart and 2) exercise training
alleviated these diabetes-induced reductions.
