The regulatory effects of fatty acids on the oxidative decarboxylation of leucine and 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate were investigated in the isolated rat heart. Infusion of the long-chain fatty acid palmitate resulted in both an inactivation of the branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase and an inhibition of the measured metabolic flux through this enzyme complex. Pyruvate addition also caused both an inactivation and an inhibition of the flux through the complex. On the other hand, the medium-chain fatty acid octanoate caused an activation of and a stimulation of flux through the branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase when the perfusion conditions before octanoate addition maintained the enzyme complex in its inactive state. When the enzyme complex was activated before octanoate infusion, this fatty acid caused a significant inhibition of the flux through the branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase reaction. Inclusion of glucose in the perfusion medium prevented the octanoate-mediated activation of the branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase.
