Anaerobic Metabolism Flashcards
What does HLa value depend on?
Production
Removal
Turnover of HLa
Where does lactic acid occur? How?
In skeletal muscle
When NADH + H is oxidized to NAD by transfering H ion to pyruvic acid.
What do amount of HLa produced depend on?
Relative rates of glycolytic (muscle contraction)
Oxidative activity (enzyme activity)
How does muscle contraction affect amount of HLa produced?
Ca2+ release causes glycogenolysis via glycogen phosphorylase activation
How does enzyme activity cause HLa?
Increase activity of LDH leads to the production of HLa from pyruvate in exercising skeletal muscle
How does muscle fiber type affect to production of HLa?
Due to isoenzyme 4&5 and low mitochondria density
How does system nervous system produce HLa?
Heavy exercise increase epinephrine and glucagon, supress insulin, stimulating glycogenolysis -> increase pyruvate
How does insufficien oxygen produce HLa?
High intensity short duration leads to glycolysis rapid, extra H+ transferred to pyruvic acid and form HLa
How does clearance of lactate happen?
Oxidation (50-70%)
Glycogenesis (10-25)
Transamination
How does HLa get transported out and into tissues via?
Monocarboxylate transporters (MCT1-14)
Can muscle cells produce and consume HLa at the same time?
Yes. Btw cytoplasm and mitochondria
In heavy exercise, what fuel does the Heart prefer?
hLa
How does hLa reconverted to glucose in blood?
Via GNG (gluconeogenesis) in the liver
Why is slow oxygen delivered to mitochondria insufficient?
Bcs enzyme supported for aerobic oxidation is attenuated
Eg: cytochrome oxidase
What are two types of HLa shuttles?
Extracellular
Intracellular
Where does lactate get clearace?
Muscle and blood
What is extracellular clearance of lactase?
Lactate got removed from blood circulation rather than inside the cell
