Q

How does fatty acid metabolism generate ATP

A

Beta-oxidation of C-C

18
Q

Beta-oxidation of palmitate to 8 acetyl CoA generates how much ATP? These acetyl CoA enter the CAC to generate how many?

A

35 ATP
96 ATP from CAC

19
Q

How much ATP is generated by beta-oxidation of palmitate (16C)? Net?

A

131 ATP
but 2 ATP required
= 129 ATP/palmitate

20
Q

How are non-esterified fatty acids mobilized from adipose tissue

A

Hormone-sensitize lipase stimulates their release
Bound to albumin, circulates in blood
Taken up by liver

21
Q

What happens to NEFAs in the liver

A

Re-esterified and stored as triglycerides
Incorporated into lipoprotein (VLDL)
Beta-oxidation to make acetyl CoA

22
Q

Two methods of beta-oxidation of NEFAs in the liver

A

Complete oxidation (used as an E source)
Incomplete oxidation (pre-digestion of fatty acids): synthesize ketone bodies (B-hydroxybutyrate, acetone)

23
Q

Characteristics of ketone bodies

A

Water soluble
Decrease lipolysis rate
Normal fuel in muscles

24
Q

In order to utilize ketone bodies (acetoacetate) by making them into acetyl CoA, what needs to occur

A

They cannot be in the liver, need to go to other tissues

25
Q

Conversion of acetoacetate to acetyl CoA

A

Acetoacetate -> acetoacetyl CoA -> 2 Acetyl CoA

26
Q

Slides 19, 20

A

Utilization of ketone bodies

27
Q

What is ketosis

A

Negative energy balance generated in a post absorptive state, particularly starvation from mobilized fatty acids
Mobilized f.a. go to liver, undergo incomplete b-oxidation into ketones, circulate in body
Liver has limited capacity to oxidize f.a.

28
Q

What else can enter the kreb’s cycle?

A

Amino acids, enter into different parts of the cycle based on their structure

29
Q

Glucogenic vs ketogenic aa

A

Glucogenic enter kreb’s cycle to make ATP
Ketogenic enter the process of generating ketones, become Acetyl CoA or acetoacetyl CoA

30
Q

What are bomb calorimeters used for

A

Know how much energy we get out of a diet

31
Q

What is metabolizable energy

A

Digestible energy - energy in urine and gas

32
Q

What is digestible energy

A

Gross energy - energy in feces

33
Q

Slide 26

A

Summary

34
Q

What is direct calorimetry

A

Direct measurement of heat: feed energy - fecal energy - urinary energy

35
Q

What is indirect calorimetry?

A

Based on biochemical principles and known combustion values (e.g. glucose + O2 -> CO2 + H2O at a different proportion than fat)

36
Q

Measurements of indirect calorimetry

A

CO2 produced
O2 consumed
Respiratory quotient (RQ = CO2/O2)
Urinary N (protein oxidation)

37
Q

Reaction of glucose to gasses when completely combusted

A

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 672 Kcal

38
Q

RQ of glucose completely combusted

A

6CO2 produced / 6O2 consumed = 1

39
Q

How much energy per L of O2 consumed if only glucose is oxidized in the body

A

5.0 Kcal/L
