![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Hepatic anaplerotic outflow fluxes are redirected from gluconeogenesis to lactate synthesis in patients with Type 1a glycogen storage disease Hepatic anaplerotic outflow fluxes are redirected from gluconeogenesis to lactate synthesis in patients with Type 1a glycogen storage disease](/preview/png/31913.png)
Hepatic glucose production and relative Krebs cycle fluxes (indexed to a citrate synthase flux of 1.0) were evaluated with [U-13C]glycerol tracer in 5 fed healthy controls and 5 Type 1a glycogen storage disease (GSD1a) patients. Plasma glucose, hepatic glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) and glutamine 13C-isotopomers were analyzed by 13C NMR via blood sampling and chemical biopsy. In healthy subjects, 35±14% of plasma glucose originated from hepatic G6P while GSD1a patients had no detectable G6P contribution. Compared to controls, GSD1a patients had an increased fraction of acetyl-CoA from pyruvate (0.5±0.2 vs. 0.3±0.1, p<0.01), and increased pyruvate recycling fluxes (14.4±3.8 vs. 8.7±2.8, p<0.05). Despite negligible gluconeogenic flux, net anaplerotic outflow was not significantly different from controls (2.2±0.8 vs. 1.3±0.5). The enrichment of lactate with 13C-isotopomers derived from the Krebs cycle suggests that lactate was the main anaplerotic product in GSD1a patients.
