Adrenaline increases skeletal muscle glycogenolysis, pyruvate dehydrogenase activation and carbohydrate oxidation during moderate exercise in humans

Watt, Matthew J, Howlett, Kirsten F, Febbraio, Mark A, Spriet, Lawrence L, Hargreaves, Mark

To evaluate the role of adrenaline in regulating carbohydrate metabolism during moderate exercise, 10 moderately trained men completed two 20 min exercise bouts at 58 ± 2 % peak pulmonary oxygen...
