The fatty acid composition of the diet has been found to influence the activity and sensitivity of mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT I; EC 2.3.1.21) to inhibition by malonyl CoA in rat heart and skeletal muscle. The nutritional state of rats has been shown to have less influence on the activity and metabolic control of mitochondrial CPT I in heart and skeletal muscle tissue than in the liver, a tissue in which CPT I activity and sensitivity to inhibition by malonyl CoA can be shown to be regulated acutely under different nutritional conditions. However, because manipulation of the nutritional state in these previous studies was restricted mainly to examining the effect of starvation, this study was undertaken to determine whether, as in liver, the fatty acid content and composition of the diet can regulate the activity and metabolic control of CPT I in heart and skeletal muscle. Rats were fed for up to 10 wk either a nonpurified low fat diet (30 g fat/kg) or a high fat diet (200 g fat/kg) containing one of the following five oil types: hydrogenated coconut oil (HCO), olive oil (OO), safflower oil (SO), evening primrose oil (EPO) or menhaden (fish) oil (MO). Feeding a diet enriched in MO had the most pronounced effect. Rats fed MO had a significantly greater skeletal muscle CPT I specific activity and tissue capacity, and a lower sensitivity of CPT I to malonyl CoA inhibition compared with rats fed a low fat diet, but the duration of feeding required to modulate this sensitivity was longer than that observed previously for the liver enzyme. Progressively greater sensitivity of heart CPT I to malonyl CoA occurred with feeding duration in all groups. These studies indicate that the fatty acid composition of the diet is involved in the regulation of mitochondrial CPT I activity in heart and skeletal muscle.
Key words: carnitine palmitoyltransferase I, fatty acid composition, skeletal muscle, heart, rats.
