Cross-sectional studies in human subjects have used 1H magnetic
resonance spectroscopy (HMRS) to demonstrate that insulin resistance
correlates more tightly with the intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) concentration
than with any other identified risk factor. To further explore the interaction
between these two elements in the rat, we used two strategies to promote the
storage of lipids in skeletal muscle and then evaluated subsequent changes in
insulin-mediated glucose disposal. Normal rats received either a low-fat or a
high-fat diet (20% lard oil) for 4 weeks. Two additional groups (low-fat +
etoxomir and lard + etoxomir) consumed diets containing 0.01% of the carnitine
palmitoyltransferase-1 inhibitor, R-etomoxir, which produced chronic blockade
of enzyme activity in liver and skeletal muscle. Both the high-fat diet and
drug treatment significantly impaired insulin sensitivity, as measured with
the hyperinsulinemiceuglycemic clamp. Insulin-mediated glucose disposal (IMGD)
fell from 12.57 ± 0.72 in the low-fat group to 9.79 ± 0.59, 8.96
± 0.38, and 7.32 ± 0.28 µmol · min-1
· 100 g-1 in the low-fat + etoxomir, lard, and lard +
etoxomir groups, respectively. We used HMRS, which distinguishes between fat
within the myocytes and fat associated with contaminating adipocytes located
in the muscle bed, to assess the IMCL content of isolated soleus muscle. A
tight inverse relationship was found between IMGD and IMCL, the correlation
(R = 0.96) being much stronger than that seen between IMGD and either
fat mass or weight. In conclusion, either a diet rich in saturated fat or
prolonged inhibition of fatty acid oxidation impairs IMGD in rats via a
mechanism related to the accumulation of IMCL.
