Sedentary aging accelerates the risk of chronic metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases, while regular exercise could effectively support healthy ageing. Here we report initial results of the 3-month supervised aerobic/strength training intervention in seniors with/without mild cognitive and/or metabolic impairment.

Whole body glucose metabolism was examined with oGTT, insulin sensitivity by euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) and metabolic substrate preference (RQ) by indirect calorimetry (Ergostik, Geratherm). Cognitive functions were assessed with a battery of validated cognitive tests (MMSE, CogState, Memtrax). Biopsy of m. vastus lateralis was performed in local anesthesia using BergstrΓΆm needle technique. Functional state of muscle mitochondria was measured by Oroboros Oxygraph-2k high-resolution respirometry applying SUIT protocols RP1 and RP2. Oxygen consumption (pmol.s-1.mg-1 tissue wet weight) was evaluated in saponin-permeabilized muscle fibers.

Mitochondrial respiration was significantly reduced in a subgroup of individuals with impaired glucose tolerance. Moreover, muscle mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) capacity was negatively associated with BMI (R=–0.548; p=0.042) and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation was positively associated with short-term memory test score (CogState, R=0.616; p=0.019). Insulin-induced change in resting energy expenditure (βˆ†REE, clamp) was positively associated with both coupled (R=0.797; p=0.018) and noncoupled (R=0.717; p=0.045) muscle mitochondrial respiration rate. Results of the 3-months exercise intervention on whole body and muscle specific metabolism and mitochondrial function will be presented during the meeting (we have finalized the data collection at this moment).

Our preliminary results showed that functional state of muscle mitochondria is tightly linked with BMI, whole body metabolic state and cognitive performance in seniors with mild cognitive impairment. Effects of regular exercise induced-changes in whole body metabolic and muscle mitochondrial function on cognitive performance in seniors will be presented.
