Lecture G Flashcards
T/F
Energy from fat only available aerobically
T
Typical male has ?% fat
15-20
Athlete have ?% fat
3-5%
Typical female have what percentage fat
25-33%
Athlete female have ?% fat
7-10% fat
T/F
> 90%. Of fat in body is in TAG form
T
Lipolysis is breakdown of
TAG
In fed state lipolysis
Decreases
During exercise lipolysis
Increases
Hormone sensitive lipase is controlled primarily
Via phosphorylation /dephosphorylation
T/F
At rest HSL is unphosphorylated/inactive
T
Lipids in adipocytes are surrounded by
Perilipins
Perilipins inhibit
Lipolysis
Phosphorylation of HSL and perilipins
Increase activation of HSL
Prevent perilipin inhibition of lipolysis
Lipolysis regulated by how many hormones and how many NT?
Regulated by 1 hormone and 2 NT
NTs that regulate lipolysis
Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Hormone that regulate lipolysis
Insulin
Functions of epinephrine and norepinephrine
Binds to B adrenergic receptor on fat cells and activates lipolysis
Function of insulin on lipolysis
Binds to insulin receptor
Increases glucose transport into fat cells
Activates enzymes that decrease lipolysis
What determines Fat mobilization
Balance between b-adrenergic and alpha 2 adrenergic catecholamine binding
T/F
–balance between β-adrenergic and alpha 2 adrenergic catecholamine binding is altered in obese individuals
T
Growth hormone secreted from
Anterior pituitary
Cortisol is secreted from
Adrenal cortex
GH and cortisol are secreted in response to
Exercise and stress
GH and cortisol may interfere with ability of insulin to
Inhibit lipolysis
Function of Adenosine
Activates the inhibitory G protein
Thus inhibits lipolysis
Function of Estrogen
Very moderate inhibition of lipolysis
Key regulatory mechanism in lipolysis
Phosphorylation of HSL
T/F
There is no perilipin in skeletal muscle
T
Fate of fA and glycerol,
Formation of fatty acyl CoA
Formation of Glycerol 3-phosphate
Triacylglycerol synthesis
TAG synthesis
3 Fatty acyl CoA + 1 glycerol-3-p
Esterification
Alcohol + acid —> Ester
During exercise esterification
Decreases
During exercise lipolysis
Increases
During exercise lipolysis increases results in
Increased FFA in blood
What is the primary source of blood FA used for energy by tissue including skeletal muscle
Adipose tissue
