摘要
Objective. To investigate the effect of acute hyperinsulinemia and the resulting decrease in plasma free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations on intramuscular TG synthesis. %26lt;br%26gt;Materials/Methods. U-C-13(16)-palmitate was infused for 3 h in anesthetized rabbits after overnight food deprivation. Arterial blood and leg muscle were sampled during the tracer infusion. Plasma samples were analyzed for free and TG-bound palmitate enrichments and concentrations. The enrichments and concentrations of palmitoyl-CoA and palmitoyl-carnitine as well as the enrichment of palmitate bound to TG were measured in muscle samples. Fractional synthetic rate (FSR) of intramuscular TG was calculated using the tracer incorporation method. The rabbits were divided into a control group and a hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp group. Insulin infusion decreased the rate of appearance of plasma free palmitate (2.00 +/- 0.15 vs 0.68 +/- 0.20 mu mol.kg(-1). min(-1); P%26lt;.001), decreased plasma FFA concentration (327 +/- 61 vs 72 +/- 25 nmol/mL; P%26lt;.01), decreased the total concentration of intramuscular fatty acyl-CoA plus fatty acyl-carnitine (12.1 +/- 1.6 vs 7.0 +/- 0.7 nmol/g; P%26lt;.05), and decreased intramuscular TG FSR (0.48 +/- 0.05 vs 0.21 +/- 0.06%/h; P%26lt;.01) in comparison with the control group. Intramuscular TG FSR was correlated (P%26lt;.01) with both plasma FFA concentrations and intramuscular fatty acyl-CoA concentrations. %26lt;br%26gt;Conclusions. Fatty acid availability is a determinant of intramuscular TG synthesis. Insulin infusion decreases plasma and intramuscular fatty acid availability and thereby decreases TG synthesis.
