FInal W2 Flashcards
The advantages of lipids as a storage is that it is a highly ___ form of carbon, stored without ___, does not result in an increase in ____, and it’s ___ means its stable as a storage molecule
reduced, hydration, osmolarity, inertness
Disadvantages of lipids as storage is that it’s insolubility requires _____ and ___, and the stable C-C bonds require _____
emulsification, transport, activation
When dietary fats are ingested, they are emulsified into ___ by __ ___. Then intestinal ____ hydrolyze TAGs to free fatty acids and _____. These products are then transported into intestinal ____, where TAGs are resynthesized and packaged into ____.
micelles, bile salts, lipases, monoglycerols, enterocytes, chylomicrons
Lipids are ___ within the aqueous digestive contents. Bile salts are __ ___ that make lipids into micelles. The ___ bonds within the TAG orient themselves at the micelle ___ increasing accessibility by lipases
insoluble, amphipathic emulsifiers, ester, surface
macromolecular complexes of specific carrier proteins and various combinations of phospholipids, cholesterol, cholesterol esters and TAGs
lipoproteins
Chlyomicrons transport dietary ____ to ___ tissues. They have a ___ core rich in TAG and a ____ surface containing ____ and ____
TAGs, peripheral, hydrophobic, hydrophilic, phospholipids, apolipoproteins
Chylomicrons are then transported to peripheral tissues through the ___. At target tissues, TAGs are ___ to free FAs and ____. These products are taken up by the cells. FAs are stored in _____ tissue or ___ in ____ for energy
blood, hydrolyzed, monoacylgylcerol, adipose, oxidized, muscle
Lipids are stored in __ ___ within adipocytes. Lipid droplets contain a ___ core of TAG and ____ _____ surrounded by a monolayer of ____. The surface of the lipid droplets are coated with ___ which function to restrict ____.
lipid droplets, hydrophobic sterol esters, phospholipids, perilipins, mobilization
When we need to use fat stored in adipose tissue, ___ binds to receptors on the adipocyte. ___ ___produces cAMP which activates PKA. This phosphorylates ____ and perilipin. ___ dissociates from perilipin and ____ metabolize TAG to glycerol and free FAs. These products are then transported by __ __ in blood. They then dissociate from them and enter target cells through ___ ___ ___. The free FAs are then ___ for fuel in target cells
glucagon, adenylyl cyclase, HSL, CGI-58, serum albumin, plasma membrane transporters, oxidized
Very low density lipoproteins or ____, are rich in TAG and transport ___ lipids from the ___ to peripheral tissues
VLDL, endogenous, liver
Low density proteins or _____, transport ___ and _____ between the liver and peripheral tissues
LDL, cholesterol, cholesterol esters
High density lipoproteins or ____, transport cholesterol and cholesterol esters from ___ tissues back to the liver
HDL, extrahepatic
Each class of lipoprotein has a specific function which is determined by its point of ___, lipid ____ and ___ content
synthesis, composition, apolipoprotein
Describes the transport of dietary lipids within chylomicrons to extrahepactic tissues and uptake of chylomicron remnants in liver
exogenous pathway
after free FAs are released into tissues, chylomicron remnants are ___ by the __ and degraded within ____.
endocytosed, liver, lysosomes
