Figure Lengend Snippet: D2-HG impairs cardiac energy metabolism by inhibiting α-KGDH. (A) Protocol for the isolated working rat heart with (0.5 mM or 1.0 mM) or without D2-HG. (B) LC-MS analysis of D2-HG concentration in hearts perfused with (0.5 mM or 1.0 mM) or without D2-HG (n = 3). (C and D) Hydraulic power (C) and glucose oxidation rate (D) at near-physiologic (100 cmH2O, 45–55 min) and increased workload (140 cmH2O, acute stimulation 55–58 min, prolonged stimulation 65–75 min). (E) Chemical structures of α-KG and D2-HG. (F) DARTs blotting showing D2-HG as a substrate of α-KGDH and ATP5B. Susceptibility of both α-KGDH and ATP5B to pronase digestion is increased in the presence of D2-HG. (G–I) Effect of D2-HG on α-KGDH activity (G), H2O2 production rate (H), and catalase activity (I) in mitochondria isolated from hearts perfused with or without D2-HG. (J) MMP assessed by 3,3′-dipropylthiadicarbocyanine iodide (DiSC35) staining and corrected by carbonyl cyanide-4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP) of mitochondria isolated from hearts perfused with or without D2-HG. n = 3 rats per group. All data shown are mean ± SEM. Statistical analyses were performed with Kruskal–Wallis test, ANOVA, and Student’s t test. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; NS, not significant.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Identification of metabolic flux rate changes promoted by D2-HG. (A and B) Experimental measurements including uptake and release rates were input into a flux balance analysis using the metabolic model CardioNet (Table S1). Metabolic differences between the flux distributions in cardiac metabolism with or without D2-HG supply were analyzed to identify significant changes. Colors indicate calculated P values for each metabolic reaction in simulations without D2-HG supply compared with simulations with D2-HG supply. Metabolic reactions are shown according to their subcellular localization in the cytosol (A) or mitochondria (B) and clustered according to their association metabolic pathways. The minus logarithms of the P values are presented.
