The utilization of blood glycerol and glucose as
precursors for intramuscular triglyceride synthesis was examined in
rats using an intravenous infusion of
[2-14C]glycerol and [6-3H]glucose or
[6-14C]glucose. In 24-h fasted rats, more glycerol than
glucose was incorporated into intramuscular triglyceride glycerol in
soleus (69 ± 23 versus 4 ± 1 nmol/µmol
triglyceride/h, respectively, p = 0.02 glycerol
versus glucose) and in gastrocnemius (25 ± 5 versus 9 ± 2 nmol/µmol triglyceride/h,
respectively, p = 0.02). Blood glucose was utilized
more than blood glycerol for triglyceride glycerol synthesis in
quadriceps. In fed rats, the blood glycerol incorporation rates (4 ± 2, 8 ± 3, and 9 ± 3 nmol/µmol triglyceride/h) were
similar (p > 0.3) to those of glucose (5 ± 2, 8 ± 2, and 5 ± 2 nmol/µmol triglyceride/h for quadriceps,
gastrocnemius, and soleus muscle, respectively). Glucose incorporation
into intramuscular triglycerides was less with
[6-3H]glucose than with [6-14C]glucose,
suggesting an indirect pathway for glucose carbon entry into muscle
triglyceride. The isotopic equilibrium between plasma and intramuscular
free glycerol ([U-13C]glycerol) was complete in
quadriceps and gastrocnemius, but not soleus, within 2 h after
beginning the tracer infusion. We conclude that blood glycerol is a
direct and important precursor for muscle triglyceride synthesis in
rats, confirming the presence of functionally important amounts of
glycerol kinase in skeletal muscle.
