Ketone bodies (acetoacetate and β-hydroxybutyrate) are oxidized in skeletal muscle mainly during fasting as an alternative source of energy to glucose. Previous studies suggest that there is a negative relationship between increased muscle ketolysis and muscle glucose metabolism in mice with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes. Therefore, we investigated the connection between increased ketone body exposure and muscle glucose metabolism by measuring the effect of a 3-h exposure to ketone bodies on glucose uptake in differentiated L6 myotubes. We showed that exposure to acetoacetate at a typical concentration (0.2 mM) resulted in increased basal glucose uptake in L6 myotubes, which was dependent on increased membrane glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4) translocation. Basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake was also increased with a concentration of acetoacetate reflective of diabetic ketoacidosis or a ketogenic diet (1 mM). We found that β-hydroxybutyrate had a variable effect on basal glucose uptake: a racemic mixture of the two β-hydroxybutyrate enantiomers (d and l) appeared to decrease basal glucose uptake, while 3 mM d -β-hydroxybutyrate alone increased basal glucose uptake. However, the effects of the ketone bodies individually were not observed when acetoacetate was present in combination with β-hydroxybutyrate. These results provide insight that will help elucidate the effect of ketone bodies in the context of specific metabolic diseases and nutritional states (e.g., type 2 diabetes and ketogenic diets). NEW & NOTEWORTHY: A limited number of studies investigate the effect of ketone bodies at concentrations reflective of both typical fasting and ketoacidosis. We tested a mix of physiologically relevant concentrations of ketone bodies, which allowed us to highlight the differential effects of d - and l -β-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate on skeletal muscle cell glucose uptake. Our findings will assist in better understanding the mechanisms that contribute to muscle insulin resistance and provide guidance on recommendations regarding ketogenic diets.
