Primary cultures of hepatocytes were used to study the effects of extracellular oleate concentration and hormones on fatty acid metabolism and gluconeogenesis. Rates of oleate uptake and oxidation to acid-soluble products varied linearly as oleate concentrations increased (0.1 to 2 mM), but rates of triglyceride accumulation varied quadratically. Insulin increased the proportion of oleate that was esterified by 22% without affecting the formation of acid-soluble products. Cells incubated with 2 mM [1-14C]oleate for 24 h eliminated 9.6% of the labeled intracellular lipid as acid-soluble products in the following 24 h when no oleate was present during depletion and eliminated 7.7% when 2 mM oleate was present. Insulin reduced labeled triglyceride depletion by 49%. Gluconeogenesis from [2-14C] propionate was depressed by 24%, and formation of acid-soluble products was increased by 46% in cells infiltrated with lipid because of previous exposure to 2 mM oleate for 45 h. Rates of gluconeogenesis from propionate were reduced 23% when 2 mM oleate was present during the 3-h period that gluconeogenesis was measured, and the effect was not modified by lipid infiltration. Lipid infiltration influenced hepatic function, and insulin regulated hepatic triglyceride concentration.
