We determined whether mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and 5â-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signalling cascades are activated in response to intense exercise in skeletal muscle from six highly trained cyclists (peak O2 uptake (VO2,peak) 5.14 ± 0.1 l min-1) and four control subjects (VO2,peak 3.8 ± 0.1 l min-1) matched for age and body mass. Trained subjects completed eight 5 min bouts of cycling at ~85% of VO2,peak with 60 s recovery between work bouts. Control subjects performed four 5 min work bouts commencing at the same relative, but a lower absolute intensity, with a comparable rest interval. Vastus lateralis muscle biopsies were taken at rest and immediately after exercise. Extracellular regulated kinase (ERK1/2), p38 MAPK, histone H3, AMPK and ACC phosphorylation was determined by immunoblot analysis using phosphospecific antibodies. Activity of mitogen and stress-activated kinase 1 (MSK1; a substrate of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK) and {alpha}1 and {alpha}2 subunits of AMPK were determined by immune complex assay. ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK phosphorylation and MSK1 activity increased (P < 0.05) after exercise 2.6-, 2.1- and 2.0-fold, respectively, in control subjects and 1.5-, 1.6- and 1.4-fold, respectively, in trained subjects. Phosphorylation of histone H3, a substrate of MSK1, increased (P < 0.05) ~1.8-fold in both control and trained subject. AMPK{alpha}2 activity increased (P < 0.05) after exercise 4.2- and 2.3-fold in control and trained subjects, respectively, whereas AMPK{alpha}1 activity was not altered. Exercise increased ACC phosphorylation (P < 0.05) 1.9- and 2.8-fold in control and trained subjects. In conclusion, intense cycling exercise in subjects with a prolonged history of endurance training increases MAPK signalling to the downstream targets MSK1 and histone H3 and isoform-specific AMPK signalling to ACC. Importantly, exercise-induced signalling responses were greater in untrained men, even at the same relative exercise intensity, suggesting muscle from previously well-trained individuals requires a greater stimulus to activate signal transduction via these pathways.
