Popis: Purpose and Methods: Breakdown rates of very low density lipoprotein triacylglycerols (VLDL-TAG) were quantified before (3 h), during (45 min), and after (3 h) moderate physical exercise at 40% VO 2max in young sedentary subjects (four male and four female, age 29.8 ± 1.6 yr. BMI 24.1 ± 0.9 kg.m -2 , VO 2max 37.0 ± 1.7 mL.kg -1 .min -1 ), using boluses of 2 H 5 -glycerol (100 μmol.kg -1 ) and 2 H 2 -palmitate (6.6 μmol.kg -1 ). The catabolic rates of VLDL-TAG were calculated from the decay in the isotopic enrichment using a single-pool model. The results were compared with those obtained during 6 h of rest in five of the same volunteers. Results: VLDL-TAG concentration remained constant throughout the study with exercise (P = NS). The fractional catabolic rate was nearly doubled from rest to exercise (P < 0.05 vs rest) and increased to an even greater extent during the early phase of recovery (P < 0.001 vs rest). During the late recovery phase, the value returned to the preexercise value (P = NS vs rest). The values for the absolute catabolic rate (k abs ) followed the same trend. Conclusion: VLDL-TAG turnover was increased during exercise and during the early phase of recovery.
