Lipids Flashcards
4 things needed for fat absorb in intestine?
1) hydrolytic enzymes from pancreas
2) release of detergents (bile salts)
3) uptake into mucosal cells
4) convert into particles for transport to lymph/blood
why need hydrolytic enzymes?
break ester linkages of TG
what is steatorrhoea?
fat in feces
failure of digest/absorb of fats?
steatorrhoea, diarrhea, h2o/electrolyte loss, v absorption of nutrients, starvation
what is lipolysis?
hydrolysis of TG by lipases
what happens in duodenum?
lipids mix with secretions, emulsions form, lipases act
formed by oxidation of cholesterol in liver
bile salts
purpose of bile salts?
mix with lipids to increase surface area, form emulsions, become part of micelles for absorption
what is absorbed directly to blood (not in micelle)?
glycerol, SCFA, MCFA
how is MG and FFA reesterified to TG??
energy–>FA activated to acyl-CoA derivative
chylomicron enters lymphatics to blood via ____ duct
thoracic
chylomicron cleaved to FA and glycerol by ____
lipoptn lipase
lipid metabolism in liver?
oxidation of exogenous lipids, fa synthesis from glu, synth of chol and bile salts, form phospholipids, form lipoproteins, reg. storage of fats in tissues, produce ketone bodies
what is efficiency of nrg capture from 16:0 in ATP?
40% of 129 equivalents
main precursor for FA syn?
glucose
transport from mito to cyto uses
oxaloacetate
carboxylation of acetyl-coA to malonyl coA needs:
biotin
condensation and reduction to palmitate requires :
FA synthetase (multienzyme complex), Acyl Carrier Protein
reducing equivalents come from:
PPP
metabolic fate of palmityl coa?
elongated, desaturated, form phosphatidic acid, use as nrg for liver, form TG and exported via VLDL
HMG-CoA–>mevalonate requires:
HMG-CoA reductase
synth path of PLs:
glycerol–>aGP–>+2FA–>phosphatidic acid–>PL
endogenous fa in adipose mainly:
palmitic acid
can muscles synth fa/tg?
nope
does beta oxidation happen in muscle or brain?
muscle
genetic diseases cause:
^ bad fat in nervous system
why ketogenesis occur?
depletion of malate so can’t have TCA
type 1 hyperlipidemia characterized by:
lack of lipoptn lipase
type 2 characterized by:
^ LDL
type 3 characterized by:
^ chol and TG
type 4 characterized by :
^ VLDL
how treat TYPE 1?
feed with M/SCFA (low energy, frequent meals so don’t make VLDL)
why no AI for MUFA?
synth in body
AMDR for n-6?
5-10% NRG
AI range for n-6?
11-17g
AI range for n-3?
1.1-1.6g
AMDR for n3?
0.6-1.2% NRG
why eggs good?
high quality protein, low in SFA, minerals/trace elements, EFAs, vitamins, bioactive comps
