Changes are described in the total pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity, the proportion of PDH in the active state and its control by insulin and noradrenaline in vivo, in white adipose tissue, liver, skeletal muscle and mammary gland with pregnancy, lactation and on weaning. Lactation resulted in a decrease in total PDH in white adipose tissue and an increase in the mammary gland, whereas the proportion in the active state decreased in muscle and increased in the mammary gland. The ability of insulin to activate PDH of white adipose tissue was lost during lactation, whereas it was retained by the other tissues. The ability of noradrenaline to activate PDH was decreased in white adipose tissue but increased in liver during lactation. These various adaptations should limit the use of glucose and lactate carbon by adipose tissue and skeletal muscle during lactation and thereby facilitate their preferential utilization by the mammary gland.
本文描述了妊娠、哺乳及断奶时,白色脂肪组织、肝脏、骨骼肌和乳腺中总丙酮酸脱氢酶(PDH)活性、活性状态的PDH比例及其在体内受胰岛素和去甲肾上腺素调控的变化情况。哺乳导致白色脂肪组织中总PDH减少,乳腺中总PDH增加,而活性状态的比例在肌肉中降低,在乳腺中增加。哺乳期白色脂肪组织丧失了胰岛素激活PDH的能力,而其他组织仍保留该能力。哺乳期白色脂肪组织中去甲肾上腺素激活PDH的能力降低,而肝脏中该能力增加。这些不同的适应性变化应会限制哺乳期脂肪组织和骨骼肌对葡萄糖和乳酸碳的利用,从而促进乳腺对它们的优先利用。
