A

ketotriose has C=O in middle

19
Q

If too much glucose in vessels, what happens?

A

How does high glucose affect vision?

A

weak vessels

aneurysms
hemorrhage

22

how to measure blood glucose on RBCs?

A

Hb A1C

23
Q

Body uses D or L glucose?

A

D-glucose

24
Q

What is special about GLUT 4?

A

It migrates to cell membrane in response to insulin to allow cell uptake of glucose

25
Q

A

Nope only liver and kidney

27
Q

Glycolysis makes what two energy rich molecules?

A

ATP and NADH

28
Q

What is the Cory Cycle?

A

switching carbons between glycogen in muscle through lactate and back to glucose in liver

29

A

Lactate
Amino Acids
Glycerol

31
Q

Are Fatty acids ketogenic or glucogenic?

A

Ketogenic

32
Q

What is Galactosaemia?

A

missing enzyme to change galactose into glucose, in infants who cannot digest mother’s milk

33
Q

fructose has how many carbons?

A

5 carbon ring, furanose

34
Q

Fructose metabolism needs what?

A

aldolase enzyme

35
Q

Fructose is bad why? 2 big reasons

A
  1. does not elicit insulin from pancreas
  2. no leptin from fat cells
  3. does not suppress ghrelin
36
Q

In the liver, glucose turned into? Fructose turned into?

A

Glucose: glycogen
Fructose: fatty acids
