In isolated rat livers perfused with oleic acid (0.1 mM), infusion of tolbutamide or glyburide decreased the rate of ketogenesis in a dose-dependent manner. The inhibition of fatty acid oxidation was maximal at 2.0 mM and 10 microM concentrations of tolbutamide and glyburide, respectively. Neither tolbutamide nor glyburide inhibited ketogenesis in livers perfused with octanoate. The inhibition of hepatic ketogenesis by sulfonylureas was independent of perfusate oleic acid concentration. Additionally, in rat livers perfused with oleic acid in the presence of L-(-)-carnitine (10 mM), submaximal concentrations of tolbutamide and glyburide did not inhibit hepatic ketogenesis. Finally, glyburide infusion into livers perfused with [U-14C]oleic acid (0.1 mM) increased the rate of 14C label incorporation into hepatic triglycerides by 2.5-fold. These data suggest that both tolbutamide and glyburide inhibit long-chain fatty acid oxidation by inhibiting the key regulatory enzyme, carnitine palmitoyltransferase I, most probably by competing with L-(-)-carnitine.

The influence of macronutrient content of a meal on postprandial fatty acid oxidation was investigated in 13 Caucasian males after consumption of a high-fat (HF) breakfast (33% carbohydrate, 52% fat, 15% protein) and after an equicaloric high-carbohydrate (HC) breakfast (78% carbohydrate, 6% fat, 15% protein). The HF breakfast contained short- and medium-chain fatty acids, as well as long-chain fatty acids. Respiratory quotient (RQ) and plasma beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) were measured during the 3 h after the meal as indicators of whole body substrate oxidation and hepatic fatty acid oxidation, respectively. Plasma levels of free fatty acids (FFA), triglycerides, glucose, insulin, and lactate were also determined because of their relationship to nutrient utilization. RQ was significantly lower and plasma BHB was higher after the HF breakfast than after the HC breakfast, implying that more fat is burned in general and specifically in the liver after an HF meal. As expected, plasma FFA and triglycerides were higher after the HF meal, and insulin and lactate were higher after the HC meal. In sum, oxidation of ingested fat occurred in response to a single HF meal.

The sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I to inhibition by 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate was decreased markedly in liver mitochondria isolated from either 48 h-starved or streptozotocin-diabetic rats. These treatments of the rat also decreased the sensitivity of fatty acid oxidation by isolated hepatocytes to inhibition by this compound. Furthermore, incubation of hepatocytes prepared from fed rats with N6O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP also decreased the sensitivity, whereas incubation of hepatocytes prepared from starved rats with lactate plus pyruvate had the opposite effect on 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate inhibition of fatty acid oxidation. The sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I of mitochondria to 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate increased in a time-dependent manner, as previously reported for malonyl-CoA. Likewise, oleoyl-CoA activated carnitine palmitoyltransferase I in a time-dependent manner and prevented the sensitization by 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate. Increased exogenous carnitine caused a moderate increase in fatty acid oxidation by hepatocytes under some conditions and a decreased 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate inhibition of fatty acid oxidation at low oleate concentration, without decreasing the difference in 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate inhibition between fed- and starved-rat hepatocytes. Time-dependent changes in the conformation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I or the membrane environment may be involved in differences among nutritional states in 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate-sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I.

Previous work has suggested that MuRF1, a cardiac-specific protein, regulates metabolism by its interactions with proteins that regulate ATP transport, glycolysis, and the electron transport chain. We recently identified that MuRF1 is cardioprotective in ischemia reperfusion injury. In the current study, we investigated the effects of MuRF1 expression on metabolic substrate utilization and found that MuRF1 shifts substrate utilization from fatty acids to glucose in a dose-dependent manner. Isolated neonatal ventricular cardiomyocytes were treated with an adenovirus expressing MuRF1 (Ad.MuRF1) or GFP (Ad.GFP) at a range of 0–25 MOI (Multiplicity Of Infection). 14C-Oleate or 14C-glucose were added to cells for 1 hour and 14C-CO2 release was determined using the CO2-trapping method. Trapped 14CO2 and acid soluble metabolites were used to calculate total fatty acid oxidation. Cardiomyocytes treated with 5–25 MOI Ad.MuRF1 demonstrated a dose dependent decrease in fatty acid oxidation of 10.5 +/− 2.3(5 MOI), 8.5 +/− 1.9 (10 MOI), 6.6 +/− 1.6 (15 MOI), and 5.1 +/− 1.3 (25 MOI) nmol oleate/mg protein/h. Compared with control cardiomyocytes treated with 5–25 MOI Ad.GFP (average of 5–25 MOI=13.5 +/− 0.7 nmol oleate/mg protein/h), this represents a 22.2%– 62.2% decrease in fatty acid oxidation. Inversely, glucose oxidation increased with increasing MuRF1 expression. Cardiomyocytes infected with 25 MOI Ad.MuRF1 oxidized 184% more glucose (28.9 +/− 4.6 nmol glucose/mg protein/h) compared to control cells treated with 25 MOI Ad.GFP (15.7 +/− 1.3 nmol glucose/mg protein/h). Increasing MuRF1 expression resulted in no net gain or loss of calculated ATP production (1699 +/− 157 vs. 1480 +/− 188 nmol ATP/mg protein/h). The co-utilization of glucose and fatty acids as substrates for the production of ATP allows the heart to adapt to both environmental stress and disease. Increasing the relative proportion of glucose oxidation in relationship to fatty acids is a known protective mechanism during cardiac stress, and may represent one mechanism by which MuRF1 is cardioprotective.
