Q

how does insulin relate to GSY?

A

insulin prevents GSY phosphorylation and increases dephosphorylation by activating protein phosphatase 1, and increasing GLUT4 membrane receptor levels

Q

What effects does fiber have on the body?

A
  1. Hormonal effects
  2. Intrinsic effects
  3. Colonic effects

Decrease body weight

21
Q

Pyruvate carboxylase

A

Pyruvate to OAA

22
Q

What is the function of the Malate aspartate shuttle?

A

Get OAA out of the mitochondria to generate NAD outside the mito; gets converted into aspartate and then back to OAA then malate

23
Q

where does glycogen synthesis occur?

A

mostly in the liver but also in the muscle
in the liver - prevents hypoglycemai
in the muscle - provides energy for muscle contraction

24
Q

GLUT1

A

High in RBC/BVs

Glucose uptAke by skeletal muscle and fat

25
Q

Glucagon

A

Made in alpha cells of pancreas
Stimulates synthesis and release of glucose *liver breaks down glycogen to release glucose into the blood
Stimulated by LOW blood glucose

26
Q

glycogen synthase (GYS)

A

extends 10-20 glucose primer by alpha-1,4 glycosidic linkages

27
Q

Na independent monosaccharide transport into enterocytes

A

Uses GLUT5 to bring fructose into the enterocyte thru facilitated diffusion

28
Q

SGLT-1 (Na dependent) monosaccharide transport into enterocytes

A

Transports glucose/galactose and 2 Na ions- coupled to Ana/K ATPase to pump Na out of the cell and K in

29
Q

Target genes of glucagon

A

PEPCK and glucose-6-phosphatase

30
Q

Protein phosphatase 1

A

Activated by insulin to inhibit glucagon stimulation

31
Q

PFK1

A

rate limiting enzyme of glycolysis!!!!

Fructose-6-p —> fructose-1,6-bisP

32
Q

GLUT2 allows glucose to enter

A

Pancreatic beta cells

33
Q

Hypokalemia

A

Sudden drop in plasma K due to too much insulin

34
Q

SREBP1

Steroid response element binding protein 1

A

Insulin regulation of gene expression:

GK, PK, FA synthase, Glu-6-P dehydrogenase

35
Q

2,3-bisphosphoglucerate BPG

A

Bound by Hb; lowers affinity for O2

More BPG means more O2 gets delivered to tissues (higher concentrations in higher altitude areas)

36
Q

Insulin

A

Made in beta calls of pancreas
Inhibits synthesis and release of glucose
Induced by hyperglycemia
*liver cells take up glucose and store as glycogen

37
Q

Rate limiting enzyme of glycolysis

A

Phosphofructokinase 1 (PFK1)

38
Q

UDP glucose phosphorylase

A

glucsose 1-P –> UDP-glucose

39
Q

malate dehydrogenase

A

malate –> OAA (generates NADH)

40
Q

Polysaccharides are broken down in the mouth by

A

Alpha amylase

41
Q

Epinephrine on metabolism

A

Stimulates glucose production and FA release

42
Q

A heart attack usually has High elevated

A

LDH1 (LDHB)

43
Q

branching enzyme

A

forms the branches in glycogen

44
Q

Phases of glycolysis

A

Prep phase: uses 2 ATP

ATP gen. Phase: makes 4 ATP

45
Q

PFK2

A

BFD because it has a kinase and phosphatase domain

46
Q

Insulin is released in 2 waves

A
  1. 1st phase - preloaded vesicles

2. 2nd phase - after expression of insulin gene via Calcium responsive element binding protein CREBP

47
Q

Insulin inhibition

A

Insulin binding —> PI3K and AKT activation —> FoXO phosphorylation —> exclusion from nucleus

In diabetes, liver is making lots of glucose and can’t get foxo out of nucleus

48
Q

3 irreversible steps of gluconeogenesis

A
  1. Pyruvate —> PEP via OAA
  2. Dephosphorylation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate by FBPase 1
  3. dephosphorylation of glucose-1-P by G6Pase
