BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Spinal cord injury (SCI) triggers a series of endogenous processes, including neuroinflammation and reactive astrogliosis, which may contribute to the failure of neural regeneration and functional recovery. In the present study, the effect of ethyl pyruvate on spinal cord repair was explored. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Functional assessment and histological analyses of astro...
We present a strategy for simultaneous assessment of the relative contributions of anaplerotic pyruvate carboxylation, pyruvate decarboxylation, and fatty acid oxidation to citrate formation in the perfused rat heart. This requires perfusing with a mix of 13C-substrates and determining the 13C labeling pattern of a single metabolite, citrate, by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The mass is...
1. Serine-pyruvate aminotransferase was purified from mouse, rat, dog and cat liver. Each enzyme preparation was homogeneous as judged by polyacrylamide-disc-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. However, isoelectric focusing resulted in the detection of two or more active forms from enzyme preparations from dog, cat and mouse. A single active form was obtained with th...
Recent findings show that exposure to temozolomide (TMZ), a DNA-damaging drug used to treat glioblastoma (GBM), can suppress the conversion of pyruvate to lactate. To understand the mechanistic basis for this effect and its potential utility as a TMZ response biomarker, we compared the response of isogenic GBM cell populations differing only in expression of the DNA repair protein methyltransfe...
Despite the fact that lactate and pyruvate are potential substrates for energy production in vivo, our understanding of the control and regulation of carbohydrate metabolism is based principally on studies where glucose is the only available carbohydrate. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the contributions of lactate, pyruvate, and glucose to energy production in the isolate...
Preparations of pyruvate formate-lyase were made from Escherichia coli cells. Net reversal of the "phosphoroclastic split" of pyruvate was readily demonstrated with these preparations. Incubation of acetyl phosphate with formate resulted in the accumulation of pyruvate in concentrations up to 0.5 mm. Catalytic amounts of coenzyme A were essential. Pyruvate was also readily formed from acetyl co...
Pyruvate promotes hyperpolarization of the inner mitochondrial membrane. However, in isolated mitochondria, pyruvate could participate in a futile cycle leading to mitochondrial depolarization. Here, we investigated this paradox in intact human cells by measuring parameters reflecting mitochondrial activation in response to 1 mM pyruvate and 5 mM glucose. NAD(P)H levels were elevated similarly ...
We have reported recently that nitrogen fixation in cell extracts of Clostriclium pasteurianum is dependent upon transitory intermediates from pyruvate metabolism (l-3). Thus, fixation has been observed to occur only while pyruvate is being actively consumed; the mole ratio of pyruvate consumed to Nz fixed approximated 100 : 1. Except for Z-ketobutyrate, no replacement for pyruvate has been fou...
Exposure of L929 cells to hyperthermia in the presence of 2-cyanocinnamic acid, an inhibitor of mitochondria! pyruvate transport, markedly enhanced killing at temperatures as low as 41°C.The inhibitor also reduced the oxidation of both glucose and exogenous pyruvate while increasing láclateproduction from glucose but not from pyruvate. These results are consistent with previous observations t...
The aim of this study was to determine whether the decreased muscle and blood lactate during exercise with hyperoxia (60% inspired O2) vs. room air is due to decreased muscle glycogenolysis, leading to decreased pyruvate and lactate production and efflux. We measured pyruvate oxidation via PDH, muscle pyruvate and lactate accumulation, and lactate and pyruvate efflux to estimate total pyruvate ...
