Clinical Trial Summary

10 healthy, male, participants will complete a a 5-day baseline assessment (days -5 to -1) and two consecutive 5-day periods of controlled exercise to increase oxidative capacity (3 days of aerobic exercise per period, 15 kcal/kg FFM/day energy expenditure cycling) and energy intake (15 days in total, with a testing session on morning 16). This will achieve states of energy balance (EB; energy availability - EA - 45 kcal/kg of fat free mass (FFM)/day), required for weight maintenance (days 1 - 5), followed by energy deficit (ED; EA 10 kcal/kg FFM/day), required for weight loss on days 6 - 10. Over the data-collection period, participants will consume deuterium (D2O) tracer to facilitate dynamic proteomic profiling to assess the impact of the intervention on muscle quality (primary outcome measure). Muscle biopsies will therefore be collected on days -5, 1, 6 & 11, alongside daily saliva samples, and venous blood collection on days -5, 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10 & 11. These samples will be used to assess further, secondary, outcome measures including alterations in intra-muscular lipid profiles (lipid droplet content, morphology and lipid-droplet associated proteins in different subcellular compartments [intermyofibrillar vs subsarcolemmal]), alterations in blood metabolites and hormones and skeletal muscle glycogen concentrations. Changes in body mass, body composition and RMR will also be assessed.


Description:

Justification for the research: Weight-loss strategies that use energy restriction alone can lead to impaired muscle mass, which can also further impair health of individuals with metabolic conditions, such as type 2 diabetics. Skeletal muscle mass and function are key to maintaining a healthy metabolism and quality of life throughout the lifespan. The combination of exercise and calorie restriction is a powerful intervention for reducing body weight and improving the metabolism and health status of healthy, overweight and obese individuals. The investigators have previously shown that skeletal muscle protein synthesis is reduced with energy restriction and that resistance-type exercise can reverse this negative effect. Aerobic-type exercise also has the capacity to stimulate muscle protein synthesis and improve the quality of muscle by increasing mitochondrial protein synthesis. Nonetheless, how energy deficit overlayed on top of aerobic exercise modulates skeletal muscle quality is not well characterised. Furthermore, existing studies have looked only into mixed (unspecific) protein synthesis of different intracellular compartments without providing details on how protein synthesis for specific proteins is regulated. This project will provide novel data to unravel the mechanisms behind the positive effect of energy restriction and concomitant aerobic exercise on skeletal muscle quality. Aerobic exercise alone is a well-established intervention to increase mitochondrial capacity and skeletal muscle function, but the effect on skeletal muscle of overlaying energy restriction while performing aerobic exercise is not well characterised. Recent findings in Rhesus monkeys, whose physiology responds in a very similar way to that of humans, has shown that life-long caloric restriction has a profound positive effect on skeletal muscle. These findings show that caloric restriction not only maintains contractile content of muscle, but also rescues the age-related decline of skeletal muscle mitochondrial content and capacity. However, physical activity in this study was not controlled and appeared to be higher in the caloric restriction group, representing an important confounding factor. Research in humans addressing similar questions so far has been less clear. Pronounced weight loss through energy restriction alone (10% total body weight in ~7.5 wk) in obese women lead to a decrease in muscle mitochondrial content. In stark contrast, using a milder restriction of 25% of total energy alone or combined with exercise during 6 months in overweight individuals showed increased expression of genes encoding mitochondrial proteins in both groups. However, despite these promising findings suggesting that weight-loss combined with exercise will enhance skeletal muscle metabolism, there are currently no strong data to provide support on the use of concomitant energy restriction and aerobic exercise with in-depth analysis of its physiological and molecular effects in humans. The proposed study herein will include a short period of tightly controlled exercise and dietary intake to show that energy deficit while performing aerobic exercise results in further benefits to muscle metabolic adaptation. The current project builds on from the investigator's previous and recent research findings to directly address this question. This research has shown that resistance exercise during 30% daily energy deficit rescues the decrease in mixed (unspecific) myofibrillar protein synthesis observed with energy deficit alone. Moreover, the investigator's research has shown that aerobic exercise up-regulates specific proteins in skeletal muscle mitochondria in rodents; that skeletal muscle lipid droplet profile is responsive to exercise and nutrition; that nutrition modulates the cellular response to aerobic exercise and, importantly; that aerobic exercise after short-term (~14 hours) energy deficit can up-regulate markers of mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle and improve metabolic control in humans. Objectives & Hypothesis: The primary research question associated with this study is: 'What is the combined effect of an energy deficit and aerobic exercise training on muscle quality (synthesis rates of individual, sarcoplasmic and mitochondrial proteins) and intramuscular lipid dynamics over a five-day period in healthy males?' Further objectives: 1. Identify the mechanisms by which a short-term energy deficit (achieved through concomitant energy restriction and exercise) can regulate individual muscle protein turnover (synthesis, breakdown and abundance), intramuscular lipid dynamics, metabolites and muscle glycogen content during weight-loss. 2. Provide novel evidence for the capacity of a potato-based diet as an effective source of nutrients to promote positive skeletal muscle and metabolic adaptations during weight loss. Study hypothesis: Short-term energy restriction with concomitant aerobic exercise will increase the quality and quantity of skeletal muscle proteins related to mitochondrial capacity, improve skeletal muscle intracellular lipid droplet profile and modulate blood-borne markers of metabolic health compared to exercise without energy deficit. Study Methods: Participants will first undertake testing for characterisation (detailed below) followed by a 5-day baseline assessment (days -5 to -1) and two consecutive 5-day periods of controlled exercise to increase oxidative capacity (3 days of aerobic exercise per period, 15 kcal/kg FFM/day energy expenditure running) and energy intake (15 days in total, with a testing session on morning 16). This will achieve states of energy balance (EB; energy availability - EA - 45 kcal/kg of fat free mass (FFM)/day), required for weight maintenance (days 1 - 5), followed by energy deficit (ED; EA 10 kcal/kg FFM/day), required for weight loss on days 6 - 10. This experimental design, as well as energy intake and expenditure, replicates what the investigators have previously used to successfully determine other physiological effects of ED on skeletal muscle. Five days of EB and EA will allow for tight control of dietary intake and will be sufficient to detect changes in the main parameters being investigated. Participant characterisation testing will be ~15 days prior to the start of baseline assessment to determine compliance with inclusion criteria, fitness levels (maximal oxygen consumption and lactate threshold [via finger-prick capillary samples]) and body composition. At baseline assessment a resting muscle a biopsy will be taken from the vastus lateralis (quadriceps), prior to ingestion of the tracer deuterium oxide (D2O) through the following 15 days to allow dynamic proteomic profiling of skeletal muscle. A total of 4 biopsies will be taken per participant, which is in line with the investigator's prior research. The baseline assessment is used for enrichment of D2O for dynamic proteomic profiling assay and ensuring regular physical activity of individuals matches requirements of the study. Throughout each 5-day experimental period, muscle biopsies (days -5, 1, 6 & 11), daily saliva samples (non-stimulated, collected at home) and regular venous blood samples (days -5, 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10 & 11) will be collected for the assessment of dynamic proteomic profiling, fibre-type specific lipid droplet profiling, skeletal muscle glycogen and D2O, and blood-borne hormones and metabolites related to weight loss. Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR; assessed via indirect calorimetry) and body composition assessment will be conducted using dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans on days -5, 1, 6 & 11 of the intervention. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) will also be used to assess body composition at each lab visit (days -5, 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10 & 11). Dietary interventions and energy balance: The diet will follow the reference daily intake of nutrients to provide ~60, 20 and 20% of energy from carbohydrates, fat and protein, respectively. In line with funding requirements, the percentage of total energy from potato-based sources will be >60% during EB and >65% during ED. Potatoes will be cooked in a range of different ways that do not add significant amount of energy such as boiled, microwaved, baked, etc. Energy availability manipulation: Energy availability (EA), which is defined as energy intake minus energy expenditure from exercise - normalised to fat free mass - is used as a key parameter to determine energy balance. The investigators are the first to have shown that values under 30 kcal/kg/FFM can modulate skeletal muscle responses, which is in line with other research on a range of metabolic responses to EA. Based on this recent research, which used 20 kcal/kg FFM/day for ~14 hs, the current intervention will induce a more pronounced energy deficit for longer. The average energy intake across the 5 days for an average 85 kg (70 kg FFM) participant will be 3780 kcal/day for EB and 1330 kcal/day ED. This will achieve an approximate cumulative energy deficit of 12250 kcal over the 5-day period resulting in approximately ~1.5 kg of body mass loss from net tissue, given that ~7450 kcal are necessary to lose 1 kg of net tissue. Water loss will account for an additional ~1 kg of the loss in body weight which will be a consequence of a decrease in endogenous carbohydrate (glycogen) stores, to which water binds, as well water fluctuation due to sodium changes. Skeletal muscle glycogen is also a regulator of the muscle qualitative aspects and will also be investigated. Subjects. A normal population will allow the researchers to determine the physiological responses to this intervention. Ten young (18-40 years) healthy, regularly exercising men with a body fat percentage ~18-26%. Quality: The researcher's associated with this study and associated with the review of the study protocol are all members of staff (or a PhD Student) within the Liverpool John Moores University Research Institute for Sport & Exercise Sciences (RISES). In the 2014 RISES (LJMU) submitted 34.75 FTE (full time equivalent) to Unit of Assessment 26 (UoA26) and attained a GPA (Grade Point Average) of 3.57. Placed second on GPA in the UoA, RISES became the leading centre for Sport and Exercise Science Research Quality in the UK (4* - 61% of all activity world leading, 3* - 36% of all activity internationally excellent standard). RISES submitted the largest volume of 4* outputs (n=60) in the UoA, had 90% of the impact activity rated at 4* and had 100% of the environment rated as 4*. Importantly, out of 1,911 submissions in all 36 UoA's RISES came 11th in the entire UK for GPA achieved at REF2014 putting RISES (LJMU) amongst Oxford, UCL, LSE and Cambridge in the league tables for this metric.
