The inevitable deficiency in nutrients and energy at the onset of lactation requires an optimal adaptation of the hepatic metabolism to overcome metabolic stress. Fatty liver is one of the main health disorders after parturition. Therefore, to investigate changes in hepatic lipid metabolic status and mitochondria in dairy cows with mild fatty liver, liver and blood samples were collected from healthy cows (n = 15) and cows with mild fatty liver (n = 15). To determine the effects of palmitic acids (PA), one of the major component of fatty acids, on lipid metabolism and mitochondria in vitro, calf hepatocytes were isolated from healthy calves and treated with various concentrations of PA (0, 50, 100, and 200 mu M). Dairy cows with mild fatty liver displayed hepatic lipid accumulation. The protein levels of sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1c (SREBP-1c) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR alpha) and mRNA levels of acetyl CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1), fatty acid synthase (FAS), acyl-CoA oxidase (ACO), and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) were significantly higher in dairy cows with mild fatty liver than in control cows. The hepatic mitochondria! DNA content, mRNA levels of oxidative phosphorylation complexes I to V (CO 1- V), protein levels of cytochrome c oxidase subunit IV (COX IV), voltage dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1), peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma coactivator-1 (PGC-1 alpha) and nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content were all markedly increased in the liver of dairy cows with mild fatty liver compared with healthy cows. The PA treatment significantly increased lipid accumulation; protein levels of SREBP-1c and PPAR alpha; and mRNA levels of ACCT, FAS, ACO, and CPT1A in calf hepatocytes. Moreover, the mitochondrial DNA content, mRNA levels of CO 1-V, protein levels of COX IV, VDAC1, PGG-1 alpha, NRF1, mitochondrial transcription factor A, and ATP content were significantly increased in PA-treated hepatocytes compared with control hepatocytes. The protein level of mitofusin-2 was significantly decreased in PA-treated groups. In conclusion, lipid synthesis and oxidation, number of mitochondria, and ATP production were increased in the liver of dairy cows with mild fatty liver and PA-treated calf hepatocytes. These changes in hepatic mitochondria and lipid metabolism may be the adaptive mechanism of dairy cows with mild fatty liver.
