Cellular proliferation requires formation of additional cellular membrane material, and the current thinking in the field is that lipids required for this new membrane formation are mostly synthesized de novo. Here we measured the contribution of de novo lipid synthesis in proliferating and contact-inhibited fibroblasts and find that proliferating fibroblasts prefer exogenous palmitate over de novo synthesis. We determined that when exogenous palmitate is provided in culture media at physiological concentrations, de novo synthesis accounts for only ~10% of intracellular palmitate in proliferating fibroblasts, as well as HeLa and H460 lung cancer cells. Blocking fatty acid uptake decreased the rate of fibroblast, HeLa, and H460 cell proliferation, while supplementing media with exogenous palmitate resulted in decreased glucose uptake and rendered cells less sensitive to glycolytic inhibition. Thus, our results suggest that cells scavenging exogenous lipids may be less susceptible to both glycolytic and lipogenic inhibitors.
