Distributions of 14C were different from those of 13C in glucoses formed by livers of rats in diabetic ketosis and perfused with [2-14C]acetone and [2-13C]lactate. There was 32-73% of the 14C and 8-12% of the 13C in carbons 3 and 4 of the glucoses with the remaining 14C and 13C distributed about equally in the other carbons. Incorporations of 14C from [2-14C]acetone (14-39%) also exceeded those from [2-14C]pyruvate (8-10%) into carbons 3 and 4 of glucoses formed by hepatocytes from rats fed acetone or fasted. [2-14C]Acetone and [2-14C]pyruvate were infused into rats that were fed, fasted, given acetone in their drinking water, or in diabetic ketosis. Thirty-seven to 52% of the 14C in the glucoses formed was in their carbons 3 and 4 when the acetone was infused and 8 to 14% when the pyruvate was infused. [1,3-14C]Hydroxybutyrate was formed by the rats in diabetic ketosis given [2-14C]acetone. It is concluded that acetone is metabolized in rats to a large extent by a pathway in which lactate or its metabolic equivalent is not an intermediate and that pathway is via acetyl-CoA. via acetyl-CoA.
