Traditional control theories of muscle O2 consumption are based on an "inertial" feedback system operating through features of the ATP splitting (e.g., [ADP] feedback, where brackets denote concentration). More recently, however, it has been suggested that feedforward mechanisms (with respect to ATP utilization) may play an important role by controlling the rate of substrate provision to the electron transport chain. This has been achieved by activation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex via dichloroacetate (DCA) infusion before exercise. To investigate these suggestions, six men performed repeated, high-intensity, constant-load quadriceps exercise in the bore of an magnetic resonance spectrometer with each of prior DCA or saline control intravenous infusions. O2 uptake (Vo2) was measured breath by breath (by use of a turbine and mass spectrometer) simultaneously with intramuscular phosphocreatine (PCr) concentration ([PCr]), [Pi], [ATP], and pH (by 31P-MRS) and arterialized-venous blood sampling. DCA had no effect on the time constant (tau) of either Vo2 increase or PCr breakdown [tauVo2 45.5 +/- 7.9 vs. 44.3 +/- 8.2 s (means +/- SD; control vs. DCA); tauPCr 44.8 +/- 6.6 vs. 46.4 +/- 7.5 s; with 95% confidence intervals averaging < +/-2 s]. DCA, however, resulted in significant (P < 0.05) reductions in 1). end-exercise [lactate] (-1.0 +/- 0.9 mM), intramuscular acidification (pH, +0.08 +/- 0.06 units), and [Pi] (-1.7 +/- 2.1 mM); 2). the amplitude of the fundamental components for [PCr] (-1.9 +/- 1.6 mM) and Vo2 (-0.1 +/- 0.07 l/min, or 8%); and 3). the amplitude of the Vo2 slow component. Thus, although the DCA infusion lessened the buildup of potential fatigue metabolites and reduced both the aerobic and anaerobic components of the energy transfer during exercise, it did not enhance either tauVo2 or tau[PCr], suggesting that feedback, rather than feedforward, control mechanisms dominate during high-intensity exercise
