This study aimed to assess the interrelations between
measures derived from
31
P-MRS
in quadriceps femoris muscle at 7T in three
physiologically different subject groups. Resting state
alkaline Pi (Pi
2
/Pi
1
),
phosphodiester concentration ([PDE]), Pi-to-ATP exchange
rate constant assessed by saturation transfer and
maximal mitochondrial capacity assessed by dynamic
31
P-MRS
during recovery from exercise were analyzed. Our results
show that resting measurements of Pi
2
/Pi
1
and
[PDE] may provide an alternative biomarker of skeletal
muscle mitochondrial capacity, complementing or
overcoming the necessity of complex experimental set-up
for dynamic examinations.
