Fatty Acid and TAG Catabolism Flashcards
what are the 2 lipases of F.A?
Hormone sensitive lipases and lipoprotein lipases
hormone sensitive lipases ?
release fatty acid from adipose for energy
lipoprotein lipases
release FA from lipoproteins for storage in adipose & usein other tissues
LPL diffuse into ?
inside adipose tissue cells..TAGs are resynthesized and stored for energy
HSL diffuse into ?
plasma and bind to abumin and are taken ti liver and degraded for energy
Activation of HSL
Primary msg (Glucagon, epinephrine, ACTH) bind to membrance receptor adenyl cyclase is activated cAMP increases Protein kinase activated Phosphorylates "activates" HSL
what inhibits HSL ?
Insulin by dephosphorylation
activation of LPL
Apolipoprotein C2 is on surface of lipoprotein
LPL is on endothelial surface (in adipose, cardiac and skeletal m.)
when Lipoprotein gets close to surface Apo CII associates with LPL Causing it to become active
chylomicrons
Transport dietary lipid from intestine to adipose
Lipoproteins
Transport lipid between liver and other tissues.
albumin
transport Fatty Acids from adipose to liver
ketone bodies
Transported in solution in plasma. (i.e. from liver to skeletal + cardiac tissues)
VLDL
Primarily transports—–TAG from liver to adipose and other tissues (also taken up by liver)
~95% lipid….apo C-II, C-III, B-100, E
LDL and Composition
Primarily transports——- cholesterol to tissues (also taken up by liver)
~80% lipid….apo C-II, C-I, B-100, E
HDL and composition
Primarily transports——- cholesterol from tissues to liver
