Effect of lipid diet on mitochondrial palmitoyl-l-carnitine oxidation in kidney at postnatal development.
Oxygen consumption (VO2) and beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (beta OAC) activity were measured in isolated mitochondria of developing rat kidney from late fetal to adult age. In the presence of palmitoyl-L-carnitine, VO2 consumption was higher in suckling than in adult rats while beta OAC activity rose during the postnatal period and declined after weaning. During postnatal development, the high level of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation was linked to the high level of fatty acid supply and any change in lipid diet altered mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. By contrast at adult age, a high fat diet did not change either mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation or beta OAC activity measured in two nephron structures (PCT and mTAL). Dietary lipids seem to play an important role in the evolution of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation in developing rat kidney.
