The
purpose of this study was to discern cellular mechanisms that
contribute to the suppression of lipid oxidation in the skeletal muscle
of obese individuals. Muscle was obtained from obese [body mass index
(BMI), 38.3 ± 3.1 kg/m 2 ] and lean (BMI, 23.8 ± 0.9 kg/m 2 ) women, and fatty acid oxidation was studied by
measuring 14 CO 2 production from
14 C-labeled fatty acids. Palmitate oxidation, which is at
least partially dependent on carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT-1) activity, was depressed ( P |
