High-Fat Diet Causes Mitochondrial Dysfunction as a Result of Impaired ADP Sensitivity
2018
Although molecular approaches altering mitochondrial content have implied a direct relationship between mitochondrial bioenergetics and insulin sensitivity, paradoxically, consumption of a high-fat (HF) diet increases mitochondrial content while inducing insulin resistance. We hypothesized that despite the induction of mitochondrial biogenesis, consumption of an HF diet would impair mitochondrial ADP sensitivity in skeletal muscle of mice and therefore manifest in mitochondrial dysfunction in the presence of ADP concentrations indicative of skeletal muscle biology. We found that HF consumption increased mitochondrial protein expression; however, absolute mitochondrial respiration and ADP sensitivity were impaired across a range of biologically relevant ADP concentrations. In addition, HF consumption attenuated the ability of ADP to suppress mitochondrial H 2 O 2 emission, further suggesting impairments in ADP sensitivity. The abundance of ADP transport proteins were not altered, but the sensitivity to carboxyatractyloside-mediated inhibition was attenuated after HF consumption, implicating alterations in adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT) ADP sensitivity in these observations. Moreover, palmitoyl-CoA is known to inhibit ANT, and modeling intramuscular palmitoyl-CoA concentrations that occur after HF consumption exacerbated the deficiency in ADP sensitivity. Altogether, these data suggest that an HF diet induces mitochondrial dysfunction secondary to an intrinsic impairment in mitochondrial ADP sensitivity that is magnified by palmitoyl-CoA.
