[Triglyceride lipase activity and fatty acid transport in physical endurance in rats adapted to the muscular activity]

Abstract

Aerobic training led to enhancement of lipase activity in type IIA type muscles. Still more obvious changes were found in rats trained to aerobic swimming with maximal intensity. In latter activity, a rise of the fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) was revealed in types I and IIA skeletal muscles. These adaptive changes led to enhancement of lipid metabolism. It was also shown that the FABP content decreased after physical exercise more obviously in the trained animals due, probably, to their substance turnover enhancement.
