Increased cardiac fatty acid oxidation in a mouse model with decreased malonyl-CoA sensitivity of CPT1B

ABSTRACT: Mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (FAO) is an important energy provider for cardiac work and changes in cardiac substrate preference are associated with different heart diseases. Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1B (CPT1B) is thought to perform the rate limiting enzyme step in FAO and is inhibited by malonyl-CoA. The role of CPT1B in cardiac metabolism has been addressed by inhibiting or decreasing CPT1B protein or after modulation of tissue malonyl-CoA metabolism. We assessed the role of CPT1B malonyl-CoA sensitivity in cardiac metabolism.

Project description:CPT1B, as the major rate-limiting enzyme for fatty acid β-oxidation, involved in the regulation of adipose tissue lipid deposition, but its role in the regulation of goat intramuscular fat (IMF) remains unclear. Here, we conducted knockdown experiments targeting the CPT1B gene in goat intramuscular preadipocytes, resulting in a significant increase in intracellular triglyceride (TAG) content and lipid droplet accumulation. Conversely, the overexpression of CPT1B led to a significant decrease in intracellular TAG content and lipid droplet accumulation. Mechanistically, through RNA-seq analysis of CPT1B knockdown samples, we identified 285 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including 71 up-regulated and 214 down-regulated genes. Notably, these DEGs were significantly enriched in various KEGG signaling pathways, such as fatty acid metabolism, focal adhesion, FoxO signaling, PI3K-Akt signaling, and MAPK signaling pathways. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) further confirmed the upregulation of the MAPK signaling pathway upon CPT1B knockdown in adipocytes. In rescue experiments, we demonstrated that the addition of a p38MAPK inhibitor (PD169316) to CPT1B-knockdown adipocytes counteracted the increase in lipid deposition caused by the loss of CPT1B function. These findings suggest that CPT1B inhibits lipid deposition in goat intramuscular preadipocytes via the p38MAPK signaling pathway. In addition, we observed a potential interaction between CPT1B and CPT1A through Protein-Protein Interaction Networks (PPIs). Interestingly, CPT1A exhibited a similar regulatory function to CPT1B, and they both were able to partially restore the changes in lipid deposition induced by each other. This observation supports the hypothesis of synergistic effects between CPT1B and CPT1A. Collectively, our results elucidate the role of CPT1B in the regulation of lipid deposition in goat intramuscular adipocytes through the p38MAPK signaling pathway, providing valuable insights for enhancing the quality of goat intramuscular fat.
