Skeletal muscle MPC disruption drives Cori cycling and fatty acid oxidation.
Skeletal muscle MPC disruption (MPC SkmKO) impairs glycolytically generated pyruvate entry into skeletal muscle mitochondria, thereby increasing conversion of pyruvate to lactate and consequent skeletal muscle lactate excretion. Increased skeletal muscle lactate excretion drives hepatic gluconeogenesis that re-supplies glucose to skeletal muscle. Thus, skeletal muscle MPC disruption increases Cori Cycling. The Cori Cycle is energetically futile because each round produces two skeletal muscle ATP molecules and consumes six liver ATP equivalents, for a net whole-body consumption of 4 ATP equivalents. Because hepatic gluconeogenesis is energetically supported by fatty acid oxidation and muscle MPC disruption increases muscle fatty acid oxidation, futile Cori Cycling is energetically supported by fatty acid oxidation. Together, increased energy expenditure and fatty acid oxidation contribute to leanness arising from skeletal muscle MPC disruption.
