Muscle fibre types, ubiquinone content and exercise capacity in hypertension and effort angina.

The composition of skeletal muscle fibre expressed as a percentage of slow twitch (ST), type I or "red" and fast twitch (FT), type II or "white" were determined in patients with hypertension (HT) or with severe ischaemic heart disease (IHD) and compared to age matched controls. Similarly, exercise capacity expressed as the cycle intensity eliciting a blood lactate concentration corresponding to 2.0 mmol x 1-1 were compared with healthy controls. Both patient groups had a higher percentage of FT fibres with relatively lower exercise capacities than their controls. The exercise capacities were reduced even when the relationship of decreased capacity with the percentage of increased FT was considered. There was an increase IHD but not in HT in patients with fibre subgroup FTc, which most probably reflected fibre trauma. Both patient groups were low in the skeletal muscle mitochondrial electron carrier and unspecific antioxidant ubiquinone, coenzyme Q10 or CoQ10. Patients with IHD but not HT showed, however, a faster fall in the ratio CoQ10 over ST% the higher the percentage value of ST. The ratio reflects the antioxidant activity related to CoQ10 in the fibre hosting most of the oxidative metabolism. A low ratio indicates a risk of metabolic lesion and cell trauma. This could explain fibre plasticity and offer an alternative cause to heredity in elucidating in deviating muscle fibre composition in patients with HT and IHD.
