The purpose of this study was to determine mitochondrial biogenesis-related mRNA expression, binding of transcription factors to the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator 1-α (PGC-1α) promoter, and subcellular location of PGC-1α protein in human skeletal muscle following exercise in a hot environment compared with a room temperature environment. Recreationally trained males ( n = 11) completed two trials in a temperature- and humidity-controlled environmental chamber. Each trial consisted of cycling in either a hot (H) or room temperature (C) environment (33 and 20°C, respectively) for 1 h at 60% of maximum wattage (W max ) followed by 3 h of supine recovery at room temperature. Muscle biopsies were taken from the vastus lateralis pre-, post-, and 3 h postexercise. PGC-1α mRNA increased post ( P = 0.039)- and 3 h postexercise in C ( P = 0.002). PGC-1α, estrogen-related receptor-α (ERRα), and nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF-1) mRNA was all lower in H than C post ( P = 0.038, P &lt; 0.001, and P = 0.030, respectively)- and 3 h postexercise ( P = 0.035, P = 0.007, and P &lt; 0.001, respectively). Binding of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) ( P = 0.005), myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) ( P = 0.047), and FoxO forkhead box class-O1 (FoxO1) ( P = 0.010) to the promoter region of the PGC-1α gene was lower in H than C. Nuclear PGC-1α protein increased postexercise in both H and C ( P = 0.029) but was not different between trials ( P = 0.602). These data indicate that acute exercise in a hot environment blunts expression of mitochondrial biogenesis-related mRNA, due to decreased binding of CREB, MEF2, and FoxO1 to the PGC-1α promoter.

Transcriptional control, but not subcellular location, of PGC-1α is altered following exercise in a hot environment
