Hormonal Regulation Flashcards
Which metabolic process cyclic AMP accelerates?
Gluconeogenesis and breakdown of glycogen in the liver
breakdown of glycogen in the muscle
How does cyclic AMP influence glycolysis in the liver
Inhibits it
Do we have receptors for adrenaline in the muscle?
Yes
Do we have receptors for glucagone in the muscle?
No
How adrenaline essects glycolysis in the muscle?
Accelerates it
How does glycolysis is able to in presence of adrenaline (in the muscle)?
Lack of serine is usually phosphorylated (in other tissues)
Where does the glucagone is generated
Alpha cells in the pancreas
Where does insulin is generated
Beta cells in the pancreas
What characterizes type I diabetes?
the immune system attacks the beta cells,
The pancreas makes little or no insulin
What causes type 2 diabetes
Obesity
What are the symptoms of hyperglycemia
Glucose in the urine
Excessive urine
Thirst
ketoacidosis
In which cells beta oxidation occurs
All cells
Lacking of which enzyme prevents production of fatty acids in the muscle?
Fatty acid synthase (FAS)
Does molecular oxygen only gives us energy?
No,we use it in enzymes
What is the function of oxidases?
