The rate of pyruvate oxidation by isolated rabbit heart mitochondria was inhibited by fatty acylcarnitine derivatives. The extent of inhibition by pyruvate oxidation in State 3 was greatest with palmitylcarnitine and only a minimal inhibition was observed with acetylcarnitine, while octanoylcarnitine or octanoate caused an intermediate extent of inhibition. Analyses of the intramitochondrial and ratios under the different conditions of incubation indicated that it is unlikely that changes in either or both of these parameters were the primary negative effectors of the rate of pyruvate oxidation. A positive correlation between the decrease in the rate of pyruvate oxidation and the decrease in the level of free CoASH in the mitochondria was observed. Extraction and assay of the pyruvate dehydrogenase from rabbit heart mitochondria during the time course of the fatty acid-mediated inhibition of pyruvate oxidation indicated that pyruvate dehydrogenase was strongly inactivated when palmitylcarnitine was the fatty acid, while incubation with octanoate and acetylcarnitine resulted in less extensive inactivation of pyruvate dehydrogenase. Measurement of the effects of NADH, NAD+, acetyl-CoA, and CoASH on the inactivation of pyruvate dehydrogenase extracted from rabbit heart mitochondria indicated that NADH and acetyl-CoA activated the pyruvate dehydrogenasee kinase while CoASH strongly inhibited the kinase and NAD+ was without effect. In addition, palmityl-CoA and octanoyl-CoA had little, if any, effect on the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase activity. It was observed that palmityl-CoA but not octanoyl-CoA strongly inhibited the activity of the extracted pyruvate dehydrogenase. Hence, it is concluded that (a) decreased mitochondrial CoASH levels, which essentially remove a potent inhibitor of the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase, (b) possibly a diminished free CoASH supply, which may be utilized as a substrate for the active complex, and (c) direct inhibitory effects of palmityl-CoA on the active form of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex combine to make palmitylcarnitine a much more potent inhibitor of mitochondrial pyruvate oxidation than shorter chain length acylcarnitine derivatives. 相似文献

Metabolic effects of increased mechanical work were studied by comparing isolated pumping rat hearts perfused by the atrial-filling technique with aortic-perfused non-pumping hearts perfused by the technique of Langendorff. The initial medium usually contained glucose (11 mm) and palmitate (0.6 mm bound to 0.1 mm albumin). During increased heart work (comparing pumping with non-pumping hearts) the uptake of oxygen and glucose increased threefold, but that of free fatty acids was unchanged. Tissue contents of alpha-oxoglutarate, NH4+, malate, lactate, pyruvate and Pi rose with increased heart work, but contents of ATP, phosphocreatine and citrate fell. Ketone bodies were produced with a ratio of beta-hydroxybutyrate/acetoacetate of about 3:1 in both pumping and non-pumping hearts but with higher net production rates in non-pumping hearts. When ketone bodies were added in relatively high concentrations (total 4 mm) to a glucose (11 mm) medium the medium, ratios of beta-hydroxybutyrate/acetoacetate were not steady even after 60 min of perfusion. The validity of calculating mitochondrial free NAD+/NADH ratios from the tissue contents of the reactants of the glutamate dehydrogenase system or the beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase system is assessed. The activities of these enzymes are considerably less in the rat heart than in the rat liver, introducing reservations into the application to the heart of the principles used by Williamson et al. (1967) for calculation of mitochondrial free NAD+/NADH ratios of liver mitochondria... 相似文献

The association reactions of NADH and NAD+ with dimeric pig heart supernatant malate dehydrogenase (s-MDH) have been measured at pH 6 and 8 by calorimetric and fluorescence methods, and the thermodynamic parameters describing these reactions have been evaluated. Coenzyme binding is associated with the uptake of 0.55 mol of H+/mol of NADH at pH 8 and 0.19 mol of H+ at pH 6. No significant effect of NAD+ binding on proton binding was observed. Increase in ionic strength strongly affects the free energies of binding of NAD+ and NADH. No cooperativity was observed in the enthalpy or free energy changes for binding of NAD+ or NADH. The differences in free energy of binding of NAD+ and NADH and the effect of pH on binding of NADH are entropy based. These effects are interpreted as reflecting a small number of interactions within the active site that are predominantly ionic. 相似文献

NADP+, NADPH and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase were determined in the cerebral cortex of mice exposed to high O2 pressure for 0, 8 and 16 min. These time intervals corresponded to 0, 50 and 100% of the CT50 (the time taken for 50% of the mice to convulse). Cerebral NADP+, NADPH and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase also were determined in O2-exposed mice exhibiting hyperactivity, convulsions, and in mice killed 10s after convulsions. Similar increases in cortical NADP+ and decreases in NADPH were found in mice exposed to 610kPa (6 atm.) of 100% O2 for 0, 50 and 100% of the CT50, during hyperactivity, onset of seizure and 10s after convulsions. The NADP+/NADPH ratio increased approx. 25% at 0% of the CT50, and remained at this increased value at all O2-exposure periods including the hyperactive state, onset of seizure and 10s after convulsions. Identical changes in cerebral NADP+ , NADPH and the NADP+/NADPH ratio were found in mice exposed for 16min to 100% O2 at 100, 350 or 610kPa. No change in cerebral glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase was found in mice exposed to 610kPa of 100% O2 during the various stages of O2 toxicity. Only in the 10s post-convulsive group was a statistically significant decrease in glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase observed. Disulfiram [bis(diethylthiocarbamoyl) disulphide], an effective O2-protective agent, did not prevent the O2-induced increase in cerebral NADP+ and the NADP+/NADPH ratio, or decrease in NADPH. 相似文献

Rat heart mitochondria have been incubated with concentrations of pyruvate from 50 to 500 μm as substrate in the presence or absence of an optimal concentration of palmitoylcarnitine and with respiration limited by phosphate acceptor. The rate of pyruvate utilization has been determined and compared with the amount of active (dephosphorylated) pyruvate dehydrogenase measured in samples of mitochondria taken throughout the experiments and assayed under Vmax conditions. At a given pyruvate concentration, differences in pyruvate utilization as a proportion of the content of active pyruvate dehydrogenase are attributed to differences in feed-back inhibition and interpreted in terms of the ratios of mitochondrial and CoA/acetyl-CoA. Under most conditions, differences in inhibition can be attributed to differences in the CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio. Feed-back inhibition is very pronounced in the presence of palmitoylcarnitine. These parameters are also examined in the presence of dichloroacetate, used to raise the steady-state levels of active pyruvate dehydrogenase in the absence of changing the pyruvate concentration, and in the presence of various ratios of carnitine/acetylcarnitine, which predominantly change the mitochondrial CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio. The latter experiment provides evidence that a decrease in mitochondrial ratio from 3.5 to 2.2 essentially balances an increase in CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio from 0.67 to 12 in modulating enzyme interconversion, whereas the change in CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio is preponderant in effecting feed-back inhibition. Increasing the free Ca2+ concentration of incubation media from 10?7 to 10?6m using CaCl2-ethylene glycol bis(β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N′-tetraacetic acid buffers is shown to increase the steady-state level of active pyruvate dehydrogenase in intact mitochondria, in the absence of added ionophores. Moreover, this activation is reversible. Effects of Ca2+ ions are dependent upon the poise of the enzyme interconversion system and were only seen in these experiments in the presence of palmitoylcarnitine. 相似文献

1. The regulation of glycolysis and pyruvate oxidation under varying conditions of ATP and oxygen consumption was studied in isolated perfused rat hearts. Potassium-induced arrest was employed to inhibit the ATP consumption of the heart. 2. Under the experimental conditions, the beating heart used solely glucose as the oxidisable substrate. The glycolytic flux through the aldolase step decreased in pace with the decreasing oxygen consumption during the potassium-induced arrest of the heart. The decrease in glucose oxidation was larger than the inhibition of the oxygen consumption, suggesting that the arrested heart switches to fatty acid oxidation. The time course and percentage changes of the inhibition of pyruvate oxidation and the decrease in the amount of the active form of pyruvate dehydrogenase suggest that the amount of active pyruvate dehydrogenase is the main regulator of pyruvate oxidation in the perfused heart. 3. To test the relative significance of the possible mechanisms regulating covalent interconversions of pyruvate dehydrogenase, the following parameters were measured in response to the potassium-induced cardiac arrest: concentrations of pyruvate, acetyl-CoA, CoA-SH, citrate, alpha-oxoglutarate, ATP, ADP, AMP, creatine, creatine phosphate and inorganic phosphate and the mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ ratio. In cardiac tissue the adenylate system is not a good indicator of the energy state of the mitochondrion, even when the concentrations of AMP and free cytosolic ADP are calculated from the adenylate kinase and creatine kinase equilibria. Only creatine phosphate and inorganic phosphate undergo significant changes, but evidence of the participation of the latter compounds in the regulation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase interconversions is lacking. The potassium-induced arrest of the heart resulted in a decrease in pyruvate, a slight increase in acetyl-CoA, a large increase in the concentration of citrate and an increase in the mitochondrial NADH/NAD+. The results can be interpreted as showing that in the heart, the pyruvate dehydrogenase interconversions are mainly regulated by the pyruvate concentration and the mitochondrial redox state. Concentrations of all the regulators tested shifted to directions which one would expect to result in a decrease in the amount of active pyruvate dehydrogenase, but the changes were quite small. Therefore, the energy-linked regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase in intact tissue is possibly mediated by the equilibrium relations between the cellular redox state and the phosphorylation potential recently confirmed in cardiac tissue. 相似文献

Regulation of flux through pyruvate dehydrogenase and pyruvate carboxylase in rat hepatocytes. Effects of fatty acids and glucagon 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The regulation of flux through pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) and pyruvate carboxylase (PC) by fatty acids and glucagon was studied in situ, in intact hepatocyte suspensions. The rate of pyruvate metabolized by carboxylation plus decarboxylation was determined from the incorporation of [1-14C]pyruvate into 14CO2 plus [14C]glucose. The flux through PDH was determined from the rate of formation of 14CO2 from [1-14C]pyruvate corrected for other decarboxylation reactions (citrate cycle, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and malic enzyme), and the flux through PC was determined by subtracting the flux through PDH from the total pyruvate metabolized. With 0.5 mM pyruvate as substrate the ratio of flux through PDH/PC was 1.9 in hepatocytes from fed rats and 1.4 in hepatocytes from 24 h-starved rats. In hepatocytes from fed rats, octanoate (0.8 mM) and palmitate (0.5 mM) increased the flux through PDH (59-76%) and PC (80-83%) without altering the PDH/PC flux ratios. Glucagon did not affect the flux through PDH but it increased the flux through PC twofold, thereby decreasing the PDH/PC flux ratio to the value of hepatocytes from starved rats. In hepatocytes from starved rats, fatty acids had similar effects on pyruvate metabolism as in hepatocytes from fed rats, however glucagon did not increase the flux through PC. 2[5(4-Chlorophenyl)pentyl]oxirane-2-carboxylate (100 microM) an inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyl transferase I, reversed the palmitate-stimulated but not the octanoate-stimulated flux through PDH, in cells from fed rats, indicating that the effects of fatty acids on PDH are secondary to the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. This inhibitor also reversed the stimulatory effect of palmitate on PC and partially inhibited the flux through PC in the presence of octanoate suggesting an effect of POCA independent of fatty acid oxidation. It is concluded that the effects of fatty acids on pyruvate metabolism are probably secondary to increased pyruvate uptake by mitochondria in exchange for acetoacetate. Glucagon favours the partitioning of pyruvate towards carboxylation, by increasing the flux through pyruvate carboxylase, without directly inhibiting the flux through PDH. 相似文献

Intravenous injection of rats with 156 mumol/kg of paraquat or 140 mumol/kg of diquat produced, within 60 min, a sharp drop in the ratios of NADPH to NADP in lung. The effect persisted for a time period of at least 24 h. Exposure to 100% oxygen enhanced the toxicity of both compounds without substantially amplifying changes in the NADPH/NADP ratio. Lungs retained the capability to synthesize adenine nucleotides de novo. Electron microscopic studies showed that both paraquat and diquat damage type I alveolar cells, but only paraquat produces type II cell lesions. Although bipyridylium herbicides produce acute oxidation of NADPH in vivo, there seems not to exist a straightforward relationship between this event and cell damage. 相似文献

The rate of oxidation of 14C-labelled fatty acids and of ketone bodies was measured in isolated pancreatic islets of obese-hyperglycaemic mice (ob/ob). The following main observations were made. 1. Octanoate, palmitate and oleate were all converted into CO2 by the pancreatic islets. Octanoate was oxidized with the highest rate followed by palmitate and oleate. 2. The rate of oxidation of 0.7 mM-palmitate was 3.1 pmol/h per mug drug weight. This was decreased by 50% in the presence of 16.7 mM-glucose. The rate of palmitate oxidation was also inhibited by 2-bromostearate. The palmitate oxidation showed a concentration-dependent increase, which was most marked between 0.25 and 1.0 mM. 3. Octanoate (5 mM) had no effect on the rate of oxidation of 3.3 mM- glucose. 4. Acetoacetate (5 mM) and D-3-hydroxybutyrate (5 mM) were oxidized at rates of 5.9 and 5.4 pmol/h per mug dry weight respectively. These rates were less than 10% of those found in kidney-cortex slices. The magnitude of the oxidation rates found for fatty acids and for ketone bodies suggest that these substrates represent important metabolic fuels for the pancreatic B-cells. 相似文献

The turkey liver xanthine dehydrogenase-catalysed oxidation of NADH by Methylene Blue, by ferricyanide or by O2 is not dependent on the integrity of the active-centre persulphide groups. By contrast, the NADH-dichlorophenol-indophenol oxidoreductase and NADH-trinitrobenzenesulphonate oxidoreductase activities are directly proportional to the content of functional enzyme. These findings help to identify the sites of egress of electrons to oxidizing substrates. 相似文献
