Enzymatic systems of hepatic hyperlipogenesis supply by substrate (acetyl-CoA) and cofactors (NADPH and ATP) were studied in experiments on diabetic C57Bl/Ks J mice (db/db) that served as a model of non-insulin dependent diabetes. The rise in acetyl-CoA synthetase activity catalyzing the primary step of lipogenesis from acetate has been found, while pyruvate dehydrogenase complex activity did not differ from the control and ATP-citrate lyase activity was lowered. Hyperlipogenesis in non-insulin dependent diabetes was induced by the activation of cellular energy supply revealed in enhanced 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase activity and elevated ATP level, as well as changes in the activity ratio of NADPH supply and utilization and the rise in fructose-1,6-diphosphate, allosteric effector of fatty acid synthetase, which resulted in the increase of the enzyme activity and created wider potentials of NADPH utilization as a reducing equivalent in lipogenesis.
