Estrogen is known to play a role in fat metabolism, but its role in carbohydrate metabolism remains controversial. We investigated alterations in carbohydrate and fat metabolism after prolonged estrogen deprivation by determining body weight, food intake, visceral fat content, serum lipids, glucose tolerance, and insulin action oil glucose transport activity in isolated soleus and extensor digitorum longus muscles. In addition, effects of endurance exercise training with or without estrogen replacement on metabolic alterations occurring under estrogen deficiency were examined. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were ovariectomized (OVX) or sham-operated (SHAM). The OVX rats remained sedentary, received 5 mu g of 17 beta-estradiol (E-2), performed exercise training (ET), or underwent both estrogen treatment and exercise training (E-2 + ET) for 12 weeks. Compared with SHAM, OVX animals had greater final body weights, visceral fat content, and serum levels of total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P <.05). Exercise training and E-2 significantly reduced body weights (6% and 25%), visceral fat (37% and 51%). and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level (19% and 26%). Exercise training alone improved whole-body glucose tolerance (29%), which was enhanced to the greatest extent (51%,,) in the ET rats that also received E-2. Insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity in OVX group was lower than that in SHAM by 29% to 44% (P <.05). Exercise training and E-2 corrected the diminished insulin action oil skeletal Muscle glucose transport in OVX animals, which was partly due to elevated glucose transporter-4 protein expression. These findings indicate that 12 weeks of ovariectomy caused metabolic alterations mimicking features of the insulin resistance syndrome. Furthermore, these metabolic disturbances were attenuated by ET or E-2, whereas the beneficial interactive effects of ET and E-2 on these defects were not apparent. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc.
