NMR has detected both the deoxygenated proximal histidyl
N
H signals of myoglobin
(deoxyMb) and deoxygenated Hb (deoxyHb) from human gastrocnemius
muscle. Exercising the muscle or pressure cuffing the leg to reduce
blood flow elicits the appearance of the deoxyMb signal, which
increases in intensity as cellular
PO2 decreases. The
deoxyMb signal is detected with a 45-s time resolution and reaches a
steady-state level within 5 min of pressure cuffing. Its desaturation
kinetics match those observed in the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)
experiments, implying that the NIRS signals are actually monitoring Mb
desaturation. That interpretation is consistent with the signal
intensity and desaturation of the deoxyHb proximal histidyl
N
H signal from the
-subunit
at 73 parts per million. The experimental results establish the
feasibility and methodology to observe the deoxyMb and Hb signals in
skeletal muscle, help clarify the origin of the NIRS signal, and set a stage for continuing study of O2
regulation in skeletal muscle.
