Brief Summary

Genetic polymorphism on the effect of oral caffeine intake on fat oxidation during exercise has been studied in active and healthy population performing an incremental test on a cycle ergometer with 3-min stages at workloads from 30 to 70% of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Participants performed this test after the ingestion of a) placebo; b) 3 mg/kg of caffeine; c) 6 mg/kg of caffeine. Fat oxidation rate during exercise was measured by indirect calorimetry. The influence of the CYP1A2 c.-163A\>C, GSTP c.313A\>G and PGC1a polymorphisms was evaluated to determine the effects on fat oxidation during exercise

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Genotype frequency of CYP1A2 polymorphism

    Samples shall be obtained by swabbing and scraping of the buccal mucosa by the participant. The c.-163A\>C (rs762551) polymorphism will be used.

    Baseline

  • Genotype frequency of GSTP polymorphism

    Samples shall be obtained by swabbing and scraping of the buccal mucosa by the participant. The c.1444G\>A (rs8192678) and C\>T (rs17650401) polymorphisms will be used.

    Baseline

  • Genotype frequency of PGC1a polymorphisms

    Samples shall be obtained by swabbing and scraping of the buccal mucosa by the participant. The c.313A\>G (rs1695) polymorphism will be used.
