Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase I

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.

Malonyl-CoA inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I was found to be very pH-dependent. Malonyl-CoA concentrations causing 50% inhibition (I50) at pH 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5 and 8.0 were 0.04, 1, 9, 40 and 200 microM respectively. It is suggested that a lowering of intracellular pH, such as might occur in ketoacidosis, may attenuate hepatic fatty acid oxidation by increasing malonyl-CoA sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I.

Oxfenicine [S-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)glycine] is transaminated in heart and liver to 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate, an inhibitor of fatty acid oxidation shown in this study to act at the level of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (EC 2.3.1.21). Oxfenicine was an effective inhibitor of fatty acid oxidation in heart, but not in liver. Tissue specificity of oxfenicine inhibition of fatty acid oxidation was due to greater oxfenicine transaminase activity in heart and to greater sensitivity of heart carnitine palmitoyltransferase I to inhibition by 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate [I50 (concentration giving 50% inhibition) of 11 and 510 microM for the enzymes of heart and liver mitochondria, respectively]. Branched-chain-amino-acid aminotransferase (isoenzyme I, EC 2.6.1.42) was responsible for the transamination of oxfenicine in heart. A positive correlation was found between the capacity of various tissues to transaminate oxfenicine and the known content of branched-chain-amino-acid aminotransferase in these tissues. Out of three observed liver oxfenicine aminotransferase activities, one may correspond to asparagine aminotransferase, but the major activity could not be identified by partial purification and characterization. As reported previously for malonyl-CoA inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I, 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate inhibition of this enzyme was found to be very pH-dependent. In striking contrast with the kinetics of malonyl-CoA inhibition, 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylate inhibition was not affected by oleoyl-CoA concentration, but was partially reversed by increasing carnitine concentrations.

Hepatic Fatty Acid Oxidation

The temporal changes in oleate oxidation, lipogenesis, malonyl-CoA concentration and sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT 1) to malonyl-CoA inhibition were studied in isolated rabbit hepatocytes and mitochondria as a function of time after birth of the animal or time in culture after exposure to glucagon, cyclic AMP or insulin. (1) Oleate oxidation was very low during the first 6 h after birth, whereas lipogenesis rate and malonyl-CoA concentration decreased rapidly during this period to reach levels as low as those found in 24-h-old newborns that show active oleate oxidation. (2) The changes in the activity of CPT I and the IC50 (concn. causing 50% inhibition) for malonyl-CoA paralleled those of oleate oxidation. (3) In cultured fetal hepatocytes, the addition of glucagon or cyclic AMP reproduced the changes that occur spontaneously after birth. A 12 h exposure to glucagon or cyclic AMP was sufficient to inhibit lipogenesis totally and to cause a decrease in malonyl-CoA concentration, but a 24 h exposure was required to induce oleate oxidation. (4) The induction of oleate oxidation by glucagon or cyclic AMP is triggered by the fall in the malonyl-CoA sensitivity of CPT I. (5) In cultured hepatocytes from 24 h-old newborns, the addition of insulin inhibits no more than 30% of the high oleate oxidation, whereas it stimulates lipogenesis and increases malonyl-CoA concentration by 4-fold more than in fetal cells (no oleate oxidation). This poor effect of insulin on oleate oxidation seems to be due to the inability of the hormone to increase the sensitivity of CPT I sufficiently. Altogether, these results suggest that the malonyl-CoA sensitivity of CPT I is the major site of regulation during the induction of fatty acid oxidation in the fetal rabbit liver.

Fatty acid metabolism was studied in periportal and perivenous hepatocytes isolated by the method of Chen & Katz [Biochem. J. (1988) 255, 99-104]. The rate of fatty acid synthesis and the activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase were markedly enhanced in perivenous hepatocytes as compared with periportal cells. However, the response of these two parameters to short-term modulation by cellular effectors such as the hormones insulin and glucagon, the phorbol ester 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate and the xenobiotics ethanol and acetaldehyde was similar in the two zones of the liver. In addition, perivenous hepatocytes showed a higher capacity of esterification of exogenous fatty acids into both cellular and very-low-density-lipoprotein lipids. Nevertheless, no difference between the two cell sub-populations seemed to exist in relation to the secretion of very-low-density lipoproteins. On the other hand, the rate of fatty acid oxidation was increased in periportal cells. This could be accounted for by a higher activity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I and a lower sensitivity of this enzyme to inhibition by malonyl-CoA in the periportal zone. No differences were observed between periportal and perivenous hepatocytes in relation to the short-term response of fatty acid oxidation and carnitine palmitoyltransferase I activity to the cellular modulators mentioned above. In conclusion, our results show that: (i) lipogenesis is achieved at higher rates in the perivenous zone of the liver, whereas the fatty-acid-oxidative process occurs with a certain preference in the periportal area of this organ; (ii) the short-term response of the different fatty-acid-metabolizing pathways to cellular effectors is quantitatively similar in the two zones of the liver.

Periportal and perivenous hepatocytes were isolated from rats subjected to different treatments that induce (starvation, cold exposure) or depress (refeeding after starvation) hepatic fatty acid oxidation. These experiments were designed to determine factors that may be involved in creating and maintaining the asymmetrical distribution of this metabolic pathway in the acinus of the liver. The uneven distribution of mitochondrial [14C]-palmitate oxidation within the acinus (i) was very flexible and changed markedly with the physiological status of the animal (periportal/perivenous ratio: 1.5, 2.0, 1.0 and 0.4 for fed, starved, refed and cold-exposed animals respectively), (ii) coincided with a similar zonation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I activity in fed as well as in cold-exposed animals, (iii) was paralleled by a comparable zonation of mitochondrial 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA synthase activity in starved animals, and (iv) was not determined by zonal differences in any of the following parameters: sensitivity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I to malonyl-CoA, intracellular concentration of malonyl-CoA, fatty acid synthesizing capacity, acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity, fatty acid synthase activity or relative content of the two hepatic acetyl-CoA carboxylase isoforms. Unlike mitochondrial oxidation, peroxisomal [14C]palmitate oxidation was always zonated towards the perivenous zone of the liver irrespective of the physiological status of the animal. The data presented show that changes in the acinar distribution of mitochondrial long-chain fatty acid oxidation involve specific long-term mechanisms under different physiological conditions.
