The effect of training and physical exercise on the energetic metabolism of equine erythrocytes. Erythrocytes, due to their simple metabolic processes, differ greatly from nucleated
cells. Their main metabolite of glycolysis is 2,3-Diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG), which
serves also as an energy store for producing ATP in the pyruvate kinase reaction. 2,3-DPG
modifies also the affinity of haemoglobin for oxygen (4). Increase in the concentration of
2,3-DPG, ATP and body temperature, or a decrease in the pH value of blood causes
decreased affinity of haemoglobin for oxygen as blood transverses muscle capillaries,
facilitating oxygen delivery. In equine erythrocytes, the level of ATP is s...
