Comment | Isolated extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus (SOL) muscles from wild-type mice were incubated in the presence of etomoxir, an irreversible CPT-1 inhibitor. At rest etomixir had no significant effect on fatty acid oxidation; however, when etomoxir was included during muscle contraction fatty acid oxidation was reduced by 50 and 90% in EDL and SOL muscle, respectively, indicating the critical role of CPT-1 in the regulation of contraction-stimulated fatty acid oxidation. |

gene/protein affects_activity of process |
Comment | Muscle contractions performed ex vivo, in situ or during treadmill exercise activate an alternative kinase capable of phosphorylating ACC2 Ser-221 and stimulating fatty acid oxidation in the absence of increases in AMPK activity. In summary the results demonstrate that AMPK is not essential for the regulation of fatty acid oxidation by AICAR or muscle contraction. |
