The author previously reported that short-duration intermittent hypoxia had additive effects on improvements in endurance capacity by enhancing fatty acid metabolism. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of short-duration intermittent hypoxia on endurance capacity in well-trained mice. Mice in the training group were housed in a cage with a wheel activity device for 7 weeks from 5 weeks old. Voluntary running markedly increased maximal exercise capacity (by 5.9-fold). Trained mice were then subjected to either normoxic treadmill training (Tr) or training with short-duration intermittent hypoxia (12% O2 for 15 min, 20.9% O2 for 10 min, 4 times, IntTr) for 4 weeks. Maximal exercise capacity was significantly greater in IntTr (by 36%) than in Tr. Total carnitine palmitoyl transferase activity in the soleus and plantaris muscles was significantly greater in IntTr (by 13% and 22%, respectively) than in Tr. Training with intermittent hypoxia significantly increased the proportion of type I fibres in the plantaris and red gastrocnemius muscles. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha expression in the nucleus was significantly greater in the soleus (5.2-fold) and red gastrocnemius (3.1-fold) muscles in IntTr than in Tr. While FAT/CD36 protein expression significantly increased after training with and without intermittent hypoxia in the red gastrocnemius muscle, its expression levels were markedly higher (by 21%) in IntTr than in Tr. The present results suggest that exercise training under normoxic atmosphere with short-duration intermittent hypoxia represents a useful strategy for improving endurance performance in highly trained rodents.
