Research Abstract |
Previously, we reported that oral administrated acetate contributed to suppression of lipogenesis in the liver, to the reduction of lipid accumulation in adipose tissue, and to the improvement of glucose tolerance of Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty(OLETF) rats. Acetate has a potential for prevention of metabolic syndrome. In this study, we investigated the effect of acetate on skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. It was shown that acetate stimulated expressions of myoblobin and GLUT4 via activation of AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK) and it enhanced fatty acid metabolism and glucose uptake in skeletal muscle.
