Ketone bodies & ketosis part 2 Flashcards
12 hr fast - RBC & brain fuel use
Glucose only
12 hr fast - Liver fuel use
Inc FA use as glucagon:insulin inc –> dec glycolysis
12 hr fast - adipose and muscle fuel use
Inc FA use as glucagon:insulin inc –> Dec GLUT4 transport
3 day fast - RBC fuel use
glucose
3 day fast - brain fuel use
Glucoe & inc KB (starting day 3) as transporters inc
3 day fast - muscle fuel use
FA & inc KB (starting day 1) as Pkb inc
3 day fast - liver and adipose fuel use
FA
Glucagon:insulin ratio after 3 day fast
Plateaus out at ~10x initial value
Body process of longer fasts
Brain using more KB than muscle
Dec total body glucose–>gluconeogenesis & proteolysis now less than day 3 –> Pglucose plateaus at low end of normal but NOT hypo-g
Pkb plateaus, Ketonemia ~10x normal
Plasma HCO3 falls but pH usually > 7.35
Not acidemia
RBC fuel in week long fast
Glucose
Brain fuel in week long fast
KB>glucose
Muscle fuel in week long fast
FA & KB
Liver & adipose fuel in week long fast
FA
Glucagon:insulin ratio during fasting in untreated T1DM
Super duper high because insulin is 0
Processes inhibited in uncontrolled T1DM
GLUT-4-mediated glucose uptake into muscle and fat
