Q

advantages of fat as fuel

A
  • more energy/gram

Q

role of insulin in fat metabolism

A

inhibits hormone sensitive lipase (HSL)

result

  • reduces intracellular lipolysis of TG
  • promotes TAG storage in adipocyte

Q

role of EPI in FFA mobilization

A

binds membrane receptor (adenylate cyclase)

  • cAMP produced
  • activates (phosphorylates protein kinase A
  • moves “perilipin” coating on lipid droplet
  • allows hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) to bind
  • TAG converted to FFAs

Q

perilipins

A

proteins coating on lipid droplets that prevents HSL from binding
- removed by phosphorylated protein kinase A

Q

affects of exercise on adipose tissue lipolysis

A

increased HSL amount and sensitivity to stim by EPI (5 or 20 min)
- levels vary depending on fat deposit

Q

FFA release from adipose tissue during high intensity

- rate limiting step?

A

impaired

  • reduced blood flow to adipose tissue
  • not enough albumin reaches adipocyte for transport
  • FAs must be bound in blood
  • limiting step
  • infused FA into blood improves fat oxidation at high intensities

Q

FFA uptake into skeletal muscle and usage

A

FFA freely crosses membrane into cytosol

  • converted to “fatty acyl CoA”
  • crosses into mitochondria
  • beta oxidation
  • acetyl CoA
  • citric acid cycle

Q

exercise and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) concentration in skeletal muscle

A

increased
- higher post 8h
- even higher post 22h
ensures increased flux of fatty acids to contracting muscle

Q

FA sacrolemmal transporters in muscle

A

FAT/CD36

  • fatty acid translocase
  • most important **

FABPpm

  • fatty acid binding protein (plasma membrane)
  • peripheral protein
  • doesnt span the membrane

FATP1-6
- family of fatty acid transporters

Q

how FA enters muscle

- 5 ways

A
  1. FA into cell simple diffusion
  2. CD36 alone / with FABPpm increase local conc, and increase diffusion
  3. CD36 active transport, binds FAs to FABPc before entering pathways
  4. some transported by FA transport proteins, rapidly activated by acyl-CoA synthatse –> aceyl CoA esters
  5. very long chain FAs transported by FATPs, converted to VLC-acyl-CoA
17
Q

how FA receptors stimulated to move to plasma membrane

A

same as glucose
- glut4 and FAT/CD36

insulin
- PI3-k pathway
muscle contraction
- AMPK pathway

*additive effect

18
Q

FA entry into mitochondria

A
  • FA activated by acyl CoA synthetase
  • FA acyl CoA
  • Carnitine pamitoyl transferase 1 (CPT1)
  • fatty acyl carnitine
    now can cross into mitochondria
  • CPT1 rate limiting step
  • found FAT/CD36 on mitochondria membrane (significance still unclear)
19
Q

AMPK regulation of fat metabolism

A

activates

  • malonyl CoA decarboxylase (MCD)
  • malonyl CoA –> acetyl CoA

inactivates

  • acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC)
  • acetyl CoA –/–> malonyl CoA

*malonyl CoA inhibits CPT1
AMPK decrease malonyl CoA –> increases CPT1 –> increase FA oxidation

20
Q

enzymes increased in concentration with training to improve FA oxidation

A

beta hydroxyacyl dehydrogenase (betaHAD)
- beta oxidation

citrate synthase (CS)
- krebs cycle

cytochrome oxidase
- etc cycle

CPT1
- makes fatty acyl carnitine in cytosol

  • classical markers for training status
21
Q

what happens to plasma FFA with aerobic training

A

return to baseline levels quicker

  • lower levels in blood
  • more dependency on intramuscular TGs
  • more FA transporters (FAT/CD36***)
22
Q

high IMTG seen in obese, why also seen in trained

A

skeletal muscle remains insulin sensitive
