AbstractThe effects of moderate exercise of 2-h duration on the concentration and turnover rate of total ketone bodies were assessed in 7 acutely insulin-deprived Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients with an isotope tracer technique using a constant infusion of 14C-beta-hydroxybutyrate. These results were compared to those obtained in 13 normal control subjects in whom a similar range of hyperketonaemia (approximately 1-6 mmol/l) was induced by fasting. In all subjects, the concentration and the rate of production of ketone bodies followed a biphasic pattern with an initial fall lasting for about 20 min followed by a secondary rise. When integrated over the entire working period, the exercise-induced changes in ketone turnover were markedly dependent on the initial ketone body concentrations in both groups: at low ketonaemia (approximately 1 mmol/l), exercise increased the rate of production and disposal of ketones. These effects were progressively attenuated as basal ketonaemia rose and were reversed to an inhibitory action in markedly ketotic subjects (greater than 4 mmol/l). Despite the finding that, at high ketosis, exercise inhibited ketogenesis to a similar degree in control subjects and diabetic patients, the changes in concentration recorded at the end of exercise were different in the 2 groups: ketonaemia was reduced in fasted control subjects and increased in the diabetic patients. These data suggest that, contrary to a widely accepted opinion, the hyperketonaemic effect of prolonged exercise in ketotic diabetic patients does not result from an exaggerated stimulation of ketogenesis, but from some defect in their removal capacities for ketones, possibly related to insulinopenia.
