Increased fatty acid metabolism can decrease cardiac function and efficiency, and may therefore contribute to the outcome of ischemic injury in the diabetic. Alterations in the control of myocardial malonyl CoA levels is an important contributing factor to these high fatty acid oxidation rates. This includes alterations in
AMPK
, ACC, and
MCD
activity in the diabetic rat heart. A further understanding of how malonyl CoA controls fatty acid oxidation in the diabetic heart should help identify new targets for pharmacological intervention which decreases the reliance of the heart on fatty acid oxidation, and ultimately improves heart function.
