when insulin binds causing phosphorylation what happens?

5

A
glucose uptake (mobilizing transporters)
glycogen synthesis
protein synthesis  
fat synthesis 
altered gene expression (enzymes)
22

A

gluconeogenesis
glycogenolysis
lipolysis
ketogenesis

24

27
Q

Cholelithiasis is caused by

A

a bile salt deficiency

28
Q

Fatty liver (steatosis) is an imbalance of ?

A

TAG synthesis to secretion of VLDL

29
Q

familial hypercholesterolemia results from

A

deficiency in LDL receptors

30
Q

metabolism of LDL

A

liver cholesterol level low
increase expression of LDL receptors
increased removal of LDL from plasma

31
Q

Tell me WTF a mother fuckn foam cells is

A
  • macrophages scavenge chemically modified LDLs(oxidized lipid or apo B)
  • macrophages pile up causing atherosclerosis
  • create foam cells
  • located under endothelium lining
  • cause damage to vessel
32
Q

HDL help foam cells problems how?

A

retrieve cholesterol from cells and tissues

33
Q

enzyme deficiency related to steroid synthesizing enzymes could result in

A

congenital adrenal hyperplasis

34
Q

congenital adrenal hyperplasis would cause?

A

inability to respond to stress response

cv collapse

35
Q

11B hydroxylase deficiency exaggerated by what drug

A

etomidate

36
Q

Chronic steroid use would cause?

In regards to hormones

A

HP axis
blunted
cant respond to stress response

37
Q

blunted HP axis give what?

A

glucocorticoids
