Abstract

Pyruvate has two major fates upon entry into mitochondria, the oxidative decarboxylation to acetyl-CoA via the pyruvate decarboxylase complex or the biotin-dependent carboxylation to oxaloacetate via pyruvate carboxylase (Pcx). Here, we have generated mice with a liver-specific KO of pyruvate carboxylase (PcxL−/−) to understand the role of Pcx in hepatic mitochondrial metabolism under disparate physiological states. PcxL−/− mice exhibited a deficit in hepatic gluconeogenesis and enhanced ketogenesis as expected but were able to maintain systemic euglycemia following a 24 h fast. Feeding a high-fat diet to PcxL−/− mice resulted in animals that were resistant to glucose intolerance without affecting body weight. However, we found that PcxL−/− mice fed a ketogenic diet for 1 week became severely hypoglycemic, demonstrating a requirement for hepatic Pcx for long-term glycemia under carbohydrate-limited diets. Additionally, we determined that loss of Pcx was associated with an induction in the abundance of lysine-acetylated proteins in PcxL−/− mice regardless of physiologic state. Furthermore, liver acetyl-proteomics revealed a biased induction in mitochondrial lysine-acetylated proteins. These data show that Pcx is important for maintaining the proper balance of pyruvate metabolism between oxidative and anaplerotic pathways.

Additionally, we determined that loss of Pcx was associated with an induction in the abundance of lysine-acetylated proteins in PcxL−/− mice regardless of physiologic state. Furthermore, liver acetyl-proteomics revealed a biased induction in mitochondrial lysine-acetylated proteins. These data show that Pcx is important for maintaining the proper balance of pyruvate metabolism between oxidative and anaplerotic pathways. The liver can exhibit dramatic metabolic shifts depending on nutritional and/or dietary state. This metabolic flexibility is most aptly demonstrated by the shift between ad libitum feeding and fasting where the liver becomes a net consumer or producer of blood glucose, respectively (1Rui L. Energy metabolism in the liver.Compr. Physiol. 2014; 4: 177-197Crossref PubMed Scopus (1243) Google Scholar). Conversely, the liver is a net producer and then consumer of fatty acids between the carbohydrate replete and fasted states. This shift in macronutrient metabolism is accomplished by shifts in tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle flux whereby carbon is partitioned into either the reductive or oxidative branches of the TCA cycle to facilitate gluconeogenesis or fatty acid synthesis. While the fate of pyruvate is unique among the fed and fasted states, pyruvate carboxylase is central to both by generating oxaloacetate (OAA) from pyruvate (2Utter M.F. Keech D.B. Formation of oxaloacetate from pyruvate and carbon dioxide.J. Biol. Chem. 1960; 235: PC17-PC18Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Google Scholar). Pyruvate entry into mitochondria is accompanied by the concomitant partitioning of pyruvate into two major fates, the oxidative decarboxylation to acetyl-CoA and CO2 via the pyruvate decarboxylase complex or its biotin-dependent carboxylation to OAA via pyruvate carboxylase (3Jitrapakdee S. St Maurice M. Rayment I. Cleland W.W. Wallace J.C. Attwood P.V. Structure, mechanism and regulation of pyruvate carboxylase.Biochem. J. 2008; 413: 369-387Crossref PubMed Scopus (306) Google Scholar). Pyruvate carboxylase contributes to both gluconeogenesis and fatty acid synthesis. Pyruvate carboxylase generates OAA as a mitochondrial-derived gluconeogenic substrate. Alternatively, pyruvate carboxylase generates OAA for the balanced synthesis of citrate by citrate synthase and is therefore highly expressed in lipogenic and steroidogenic tissues. Lipogenesis is a highly cataplerotic process and pyruvate carboxylase is a major mechanism by which the TCA cycle is replenished (4Owen O.E. Kalhan S.C. Hanson R.W. The key role of anaplerosis and cataplerosis for citric acid cycle function.J. Biol. Chem. 2002; 277: 30409-30412Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (811) Google Scholar). Fatty acid oxidation is required for gluconeogenesis in part by generating ample mitochondrial acetyl-CoA to allosterically activate pyruvate carboxylase in addition to its roles in generating NADH, FADH2, and ATP. The activation of pyruvate carboxylase by acetyl-CoA derived from fatty acids has been proposed to play a major regulatory role in potentiating inappropriate gluconeogenesis in insulin resistance (5Perry R.J. Camporez J.P. Kursawe R. Titchenell P.M. Zhang D. Perry C.J. et al.Hepatic acetyl CoA links adipose tissue inflammation to hepatic insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.Cell. 2015; 160: 745-758Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (481) Google Scholar). Interfering with this activation could be a beneficial strategy in the treatment of type II diabetes (6Kumashiro N. Beddow S.A. Vatner D.F. Majumdar S.K. Cantley J.L. Guebre-Egziabher F. et al.Targeting pyruvate carboxylase reduces gluconeogenesis and adiposity and improves insulin resistance.Diabetes. 2013; 62: 2183-2194Crossref PubMed Scopus (93) Google Scholar, 7Lao-On U. Attwood P.V. Jitrapakdee S. Roles of pyruvate carboxylase in human diseases: from diabetes to cancers and infection.J. Mol. Med. (Berl). 2018; 96: 237-247Crossref PubMed Scopus (56) Google Scholar). Here, we generated liver-specific pyruvate carboxylase KO mice in order to determine the requirements of hepatic pyruvate carboxylase in the liver and systemic metabolism following disparate nutritional and physiological states. We found that the liver-specific loss of pyruvate carboxylase was surprisingly well tolerated during a 24 h fast and even improved glucose tolerance during high fat feeding. However, a carbohydrate-limited ketogenic diet resulted in rapid metabolic decompensation. These data show the requirement of pyruvate carboxylase mediated anaplerosis in the liver under disparate metabolic conditions. Upon fasting, pyruvate carboxylase is activated by acetyl-CoA derived from fatty acid ß-oxidation to generate OAA from pyruvate for hepatic gluconeogenesis. To better understand the requirements for Pcx in hepatic metabolism, we generated a hepatocyte-specific deletion of pcx in mice. Pcx transgenic mice from the European Mutant Mouse Archive (C57BL/6NTac-Pcx Tm1a) were obtained and bred to Flpe germline deleter mice (Jax #5705) to generate mice with Pcx that contain a floxed exon 10. These mice were then bred to Albumin-Cre mice to generate a hepatocyte-specific deletion of pyruvate carboxylase (PcxL−/−) and littermate controls (Pcxf/f). The loss of Pcx in the liver of PcxL−/− mice was validated at the mRNA and protein level (Fig. 1, A and B). The loss of Pcx did not alter the body weight of male or female mice under fed or fasted conditions (Fig. 1C). The hepatic-specific loss of Pcx resulted in a statistically significant suppression of both fed and fasted blood glucose of PcxL−/− mice (Fig. 1D). However, this small suppression in blood glucose is not likely physiologically significant. The loss of Pcx did result in an increase in circulating lactate, consistent with human inborn errors of pyruvate carboxylase deficiency (OMIM # 266150) (8Haworth J.C. Robinson B.H. Perry T.L. Lactic acidosis due to pyruvate carboxylase deficiency.J. Inherit. Metab. Dis. 1981; 4: 57-58Crossref PubMed Scopus (34) Google Scholar) (Fig. 1E).
