Acetate Metabolism during Hemodialysis: Metabolic Considerations

Abstract: Acetate is used during regular hemodialysis to replace the bicarbonate lost during dialysis. The temporal changes of plasma bicarbonate and acetate concentrations and the critical role of acetate metabolism for the maintenance of plasma bicarbonate are described. We point out that the maximal rate of acetate oxidation in man is usually reached during dialysis, and we identify physiologic and pathologic factors that may modify this Vmax. A syndrome of ‘intolerance to acetate’ has been described. This… Show more

“…In this instance the equilibrium reaction depicted in Fig. 1 would shift markedly to the left following bicarbonate administration; however, due to the rapid removal of acetic acid by the muscle mass (Vmm = 300 mmol h-'; Vinay et al 1987), a considerable back pressure would exist to produce acetic acid and reset the equilibrium, thereby driving cellular acetyl group accumulation ( Fig. 1; Vinay et al 1987).…”

“…1 would shift markedly to the left following bicarbonate administration; however, due to the rapid removal of acetic acid by the muscle mass (Vmm = 300 mmol h-'; Vinay et al 1987), a considerable back pressure would exist to produce acetic acid and reset the equilibrium, thereby driving cellular acetyl group accumulation ( Fig. 1; Vinay et al 1987). Assuming this occurs, and that the bicarbonate-induced augmentation of acetyl-CoA availability is of sufficient magnitude, it could potentially overcome the period of metabolic inertia during the rest-to-work transition (Roberts et al 2000), reduce ATP production from nonoxygen-dependent routes and lead to an improvement in contractile function in a manner not dissimilar to dichloroacetate and sodium acetate pre-treatment (Roberts et al 2000,2001 …”
