Influence of insulin and glucose on pyruvate catabolism in perfused rat hindlimbs
View through CrossRef
The effects of insulin and glucose on the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate in isolated rat hindlimbs was studied in non-recirculating perfusion with [1-14C]pyruvate. Insulin increased the calculated pyruvate decarboxylation rate in a concentration-dependent manner. At supramaximal insulin concentrations, the calculated pyruvate decarboxylation rate was increased by about 40% in perfusions with 0.15-1.5 mM-pyruvate. Glucose up to 20 mM had no effect. In the presence of insulin and low physiological pyruvate concentrations (0.15 mM), glucose increased the calculated pyruvate oxidation. This effect was abolished by high concentrations of pyruvate (1 mM). The data provide evidence that in resting perfused rat skeletal muscle insulin primarily increased the activity of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. The effect of glucose was due to increased intracellular pyruvate supply.
