The respective effects of 2-chloropropionate and dichloroacetate on the pyruvate metabolic crossroads, lipogenesis and ketogenesis, were compared in hepatocytes isolated from fed rats. 2-Chloropropionate acts as an exclusive pyruvate dehydrogenase activator: it increases ketogenesis, lipogenesis, Krebs cycle intermediates and mitochondrial NADH/NAD− ratio. The effects of dichloroacetate depend on experimental conditions and the intensity of its catabolization into oxalate: the resultant action of dichloroacetate on tested parameters combines the effects of pyruvate dehydrogenase activation on the one hand, and pyruvate carboxylase inhibition by oxalate on the other. A mixture of 2-chloropropionate plus oxalate mimics the effects of dichloroacetate. In hepatocytes from fed rats, endogenous lipogenesis is correlated with the mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ ratio, irrespective of the effector added.
