Ghrelin, an acylated peptide produced predominantly in the stomach, stimulates feeding and growth hormone (GH) secretion via interaction with the GH secretagogue receptor. Ghrelin molecules are present in two major endogenous forms, an acylated form (ghrelin) and a des-acylated form (des-acyl ghrelin). Recent studies indicated that aerobic exercise did not change plasma total ghrelin levels, however, dynamics of circulating ghrelin and des-acyl ghrelin during aerobic exercise remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of moderate intensity exercise on plasma ghrelin and des-acyl ghrelin concentrations, and to investigate the relationship between ghrelin molecules and other hormonal and metabolic parameters during exercise. Nine healthy males (25.2 ± 0.5 years) exercised for 60 min at 50% of their maximal oxygen consumptions. We measured the plasma concentrations of ghrelin, des-acyl ghrelin, GH, norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E), dopamine (DA), insulin, and glucose. Plasma ghrelin level significantly decreased during exercise, whereas plasma des-acyl ghrelin and total ghrelin levels did not change. Plasma NE, E, DA and GH levels were significantly increased during exercise. Plasma insulin level significantly decreased during exercise, and plasma glucose levels remained steady during exercise. NE, E, DA, and GH were correlated negatively with plasma ghrelin levels. These findings suggest that acute moderate exercise may suppress ghrelin release from the stomach, decrease ghrelin O-acyltransferase activity, and/or activate ghrelin utilization in peripheral tissues and that exercise-induced ghrelin suppression may be mediated by activated adrenergic system.
