Integration of Metabolism Flashcards
Postprandial hypoglycemia
exaggerated insulin release after meal
-cuz high glycemic index food
frequent small meals
Alcohol hypoglycemia
elevated NADH-makes gluconeogenesis and TCA slow down
insulin induced hypoglycemia trx
mild-give carbs orally
severe-adminster glucagon subcutaneously/intramuscularly
Pathways for liver @ starvation
degrades glycogen to produce glucose for export
-after deplted-does gluconeogenesis from AA, glycerol ,adn lactate
recieves FA from adipose tissues-oxidizes them to produce energy and ketone bodies for export
how does body recover for loss of liver glycogen
glocuoneogenic pathway in liver and kidenys
-glucose for brain and RBC
FA bbecome primary fuel
-large about of FFA to liver-high levels of acetyl Coa-TCA slows down and makes aceyl COA shift to ketogenesis to make ketone bodies
Brain pathways under starvation
Use glucose normally
now use ketone bodies to get acetyl coa to run TCA cycle
Beta ox-makes NADH and hydroxy butyrate (main ketone body)-leads to acetoacetate
DM criteria
Wait above 40 or 35 inches TAgs over 150 HDL less than 40, 50mg (woman) BP over 130/85 fasting glucose over 110
need 3
stims for glycogenolysis
stronger-epi/norepi
strong-glucagon
stims for glucogenesis
stim by glucagon and cortisol
DM metabolic tissue (in terms of insulin)
- subcat white adipose
- BAT
- visceral white
-insulin sensitive-can still store sugar
BAT-maks you more insulin sesntive
Visceral white-insulin resistant
adipokines
signalling proteins secreted by adipose tissue
intraabdominal adiposity results in
increase inflammatory marekrs, increased FFA, increased adipokines
-dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, inflammation
Role of visceral adipose tissue in insulin resistance
FFA to liver, adipose as secretory organ, excess fat influences insulin signalling/secretion
NEFA
nonesterified free FA-made by fat cells
inhibit inuslin secretion (turns off GLUT4)
-glucose taken up by muscle
more gluconeogenesis
Adipocytic hormones
- resistin
- leptin
- adiponectin
resistin-pro hyperglycemic
-inhibits AMPK-gluconeogenesis activated
letpin and adiponectin-reduce hyperglycemia
- if problems with receptor/secretion=hyperglycemia
- activate AMPK
these affect CNS (change if hungry/want to excercise=@ hypothalamus)
AMPK functions (6)
even in absence of glucose
- muscle glucose uptake
- muscle glycolysis
- beta ox
- decrease lipolysis in adipose tissue
- inhibit FA synthesis
- inhibit gluconeogenesis
