To test the possible reduction of glycolysis by naturally occurring long-chain fatty acids, RPTC were cultured in a two-chamber system, with albumin-bound palmitate (0.4 mM) added to the basolateral chamber after confluency. <strong>Twenty-four hours of contact with palmitate decreased glycolysis by 38% provided that carnitine was present; lactate production was decreased by 38%<\/strong>, and the decrease in glycolysis resulted from a similar decrease of basolateral and apical net uptake of glucose. In contrast to the previously described effect of the nonphysiological oxidative substrate heptanoate, palmitate promoted a long-term decrease in lactate production and sustained excellent cellular growth. <strong>After 4 days of contact, decreased glycolysis was maintained even in the absence of carnitine<\/strong> and resulted from a decrease of basolateral uptake only, suggestive of long-term regulation different from the earlier effects. Thus, although cultured RPTC lost their oxidative phenotype, they exhibited a type of regulation (Randle effect) that is found in the oxidative-type but not in the glycolytic-type tissues, therefore unmasking a regulative capacity barely detectable in fresh RPTC. Low PO2 (50 mmHg in the apical chamber) could be a major cause of elevated glycolysis and could hinder the effects of palmitate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Also see: Aldosterone, Sodium Deficiency, and Insulin Resistance Diabetes: Conversion of Alpha-cells into Beta-cells Free Fatty Acid Suppress Cellular Respiration Women, Estrogen, and Circulating DHA Insulin Inhibits Lipolysis The Randle Cycle Comparison: Carbon Dioxide v.
