Abstract

Heart failure is associated with impaired myocardial metabolism with a shift from fatty acids to glucose use for ATP generation. We hypothesized that cardiac accumulation of toxic lipid intermediates inhibits insulin signaling in advanced heart failure and that mechanical unloading of the failing myocardium corrects impaired cardiac metabolism. We analyzed the myocardium and serum of 61 patients with heart failure (body mass index, 26.5±5.1 kg/m(2); age, 51±12 years) obtained during left ventricular assist device implantation and at explantation (mean duration, 185±156 days) and from 9 control subjects. Systemic insulin resistance in heart failure was accompanied by decreased myocardial triglyceride and overall fatty acid content but increased toxic lipid intermediates, diacylglycerol, and ceramide. Increased membrane localization of protein kinase C isoforms, inhibitors of insulin signaling, and decreased activity of insulin signaling molecules Akt and Foxo were detectable in heart failure compared with control subjects. Left ventricular assist device implantation improved whole-body insulin resistance (homeostatic model of analysis-insulin resistance, 4.5±0.6-3.2±0.5; P<0.05) and decreased myocardial levels of diacylglycerol ...Continue Reading
