Concentrations of citrate, hexose phosphates and glycogen were measured in skeletal muscle and heart under conditions in which plasma non-esterified fatty acids and ketone bodies were physiologically increased. The aim was to determine under what conditions the glucose-fatty acid cycle might operative in skeletal muscle in vivo. In keeping with the findings of others, starvation increased the concentrations of glycogen, citrate and the fructose 6-phosphate/fructose 1,6-bisphosphate ratio in heart, indicating that the cycle was operative. In contrast, it decreased glycogen and had no effect on the concentration of citrate or the fructose 6-phosphate/fructose 1,6-bisphosphate ratio in the soleus, a slow-twitch red muscle in which the glucose-fatty acid cycle has been demonstrated in vitro. In fed rats, exercise of moderate intensity caused glycogen depletion in the soleus and red portion of gastrocnemius muscle, but not in heart. In starved rats the same exercise had no effect on the already diminished glycogen contents in skeletal muscle, but it decreased cardiac glycogen by 25-30%. After exercise, citrate and the fructose 6-phosphate/fructose 1,6-bisphosphate ratio were increased in the soleus of the starved rat. Significant changes were not observed in fed rats. The data suggest that in the resting state the glucose-fatty acid cycle operates in the heart, but not in the soleus muscle, of a starved rat. In contrast, the metabolite profile in the soleus was consistent with activation of the glucose-fatty acid cycle in the starved rat during the recovery period after exercise. Whether the cycle operates during exercise itself is unclear.
