Dietary Fatty Acids Influence the Activity and Metabolic Control of Mitochondrial Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase I in Rat Heart and Skeletal Muscle'

Glen W. Power23 and Eric A. Newsholme

ABSTRACT 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 le...

Taking skeletal muscle to heart.
Science News ; Taking Skeletal Muscle to Heart Would you have your songs endure? Build on the human heart, advised Robert Browning in the mid-1800s. Day in, day out, the human heart endures -- leaving physiologists, as well as poets, marveling at its dependability. No other type of muscle has the stamina of that
Bioimpedance analysis: Potential for measuring lower limb skeletal muscle mass
JPEN, Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition ; Christopher Nunez, EdM; Dympna Gallagher, EdD; Jill Grammes, MS; Richard N. Baumgartner, PhD*; Robert Ross, PhDt; ZiMian Wang, PhD; John Thornton, PhD; and Steven B. Heymsfield, MD ABSTRACT. Background: Ambulation, balance, and lower extremity bone mass and strength are all partially dependent on
A novel in vitro three-dimensional skeletal muscle model
In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology ; Abstract A novel three-dimensional (3D) skeletal muscle model composed of C2C12 mouse myoblasts is described. This model was generated by cultivating myoblasts in suspension using the rotary cell culture system (RCCS), a unique culture environment. Single-cell suspensions of myoblasts were seeded
Chronic infusion of interleukin 1 induces hyperlactatemia and altered regulation of lactate metabolism in skeletal muscle
JPEN, Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition ; ABSTRACT. Background: Hyperlactatemia is observed commonly in patients with severe inflammation syndrome or sepsis. Elevated plasma lactate concentrations may be caused by cytokine-mediated alterations in specific organ systems responsible for lactate homeostasis. The role of interleukin 1 (IL-1)
Muscle-derived CD45-SCA-1 + C-KIT- progenitor cells give rise to skeletal muscle myotubes in vitro
In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology ; (Received 26 July 2002; accepted 19 December 2002) SUMMARY A stem cell population isolated from murine skeletal muscle has recently been shown to differentiate into hematopoietic cells after transplantation in vivo. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that this cell population would
