Mitochondrial fatty acid transport is a rate-limiting step in long chain fatty acid (LCFA) oxidation. In rat skeletal muscle, the transport of LCFA at the level of mitochondria is regulated by carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPTI) activity and the content of malonyl-CoA (M-CoA), however this relationship is not consistently observed in humans. Recently, fatty acid translocase (FAT)/CD36 was identified on mitochondria isolated from rat and human skeletal muscle and found to be involved in LCFA oxidation. The present study investigated the effects of exercise (120 min of cycling at ~60 % VO2peak) on CPTI palmitoyl-CoA and M-CoA kinetics, and on the presence and functional significance of FAT/CD36 on skeletal muscle mitochondria. Whole body fat oxidation rates progressively increased during exercise (P<0.05), and concomitantly M-CoA inhibition of CPTI was progressively attenuated. Compared to rest, 120 min of cycling reduced (P<0.05) the inhibition of 0.7, 2, 5 and 10 µM M-CoA by 16%, 21%, 30% and 34%, respectively. Whole body fat oxidation and palmitate oxidation rates in isolated mitochondria progressively increased (P<0.05) during exercise, and were positively correlated (r=0.78). Mitochondrial FAT/CD36 protein increased by 63% (P<0.05) during exercise and was significantly (P<0.05) correlated with mitochondrial palmitate oxidation rates at all time points (r=0.41), However, the strongest (P<0.05) correlation was observed following 120 min of cycling (r=0.63). Importantly, the addition of sulfo-N-succimidyl oleate, a specific inhibitor of FAT/CD36, reduced mitochondrial palmitate oxidation to ~20%, indicating FAT/CD36 is functionally significant with respect to LCFA oxidation. We hypothesize that exercise induced increases in fatty acid oxidation occur as a result of an increased ability to transport LCFA into mitochondria. We further suggest that decreased CPTI M-CoA sensitivity and increased mitochondrial FAT/CD36 protein are both important for increasing whole body fatty acid oxidation during prolonged exercise.
