The effects of testosterone on muscle protein synthesis, proteome-wide synthesis rates, and muscle mass during energy deficit were investigated. The results showed that compared to the placebo group, the testosterone group had higher proteome-wide synthesis rates and muscle mass during recovery, suggesting a stimulatory effect of exogenous testosterone on muscle protein synthesis during energy deficit.
Context Effects of testosterone on integrated muscle protein metabolism and muscle mass during energy deficit are undetermined. Objective The objective was to determine the effects of testosterone on mixed-muscle protein synthesis (MPS), proteome-wide fractional synthesis rates (FSR), and skeletal muscle mass during energy deficit. Design This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Setting The study was conducted at Pennington Biomedical Research Center. Participants Fifty healthy men. Intervention The study consisted of 14 days of weight maintenance, followed by a 28-day 55% energy deficit with 200 mg testosterone enanthate (TEST, n = 24) or placebo (PLA, n = 26) weekly, and up to 42 days of ad libitum recovery feeding. Main Outcome Measures Mixed-MPS and proteome-wide FSR before (Pre), during (Mid), and after (Post) the energy deficit were determined using heavy water (days 1-42) and muscle biopsies. Muscle mass was determined using the D-3-creatine dilution method. Results Mixed-MPS was lower than Pre at Mid and Post (P < 0.0005), with no difference between TEST and PLA. The proportion of individual proteins with numerically higher FSR in TEST than PLA was significant by 2-tailed binomial test at Post (52/67; P < 0.05), but not Mid (32/67; P > 0.05). Muscle mass was unchanged during energy deficit but was greater in TEST than PLA during recovery (P < 0.05). Conclusions The high proportion of individual proteins with greater FSR in TEST than PLA at Post suggests exogenous testosterone exerted a delayed but broad stimulatory effect on synthesis rates across the muscle proteome during energy deficit, resulting in muscle mass accretion during subsequent recovery.
