chapter 9 Flashcards
adipose
connective tissue
where are adipocytes found?
in loose connective tissue
-also an exocrine organ
where are adipocytes when they are the primary cell?
adipose tissue
functions of adipose tissue/ cells
-maintain homeostasis
-store energy in lipid drop
-add to energy when you spend more out than you are eating
-no water in it
what is energy stores as in the drop?
triglycerides
white
unimolecular
-dominant in adults
-secrete hormones
-form hypodermis/ panniculus
-accumulation= mammary fat pad
-synth hormones
-make leptin
-has 2 transition factors
mammary fat pad
make growth factors, hormones
leptin
goes to hypothalamus and makes you eat less
-long term
where does white come from?
mesenchyme
baby adipocyte
lipoblasts
-called primitive fat organ
-develops in fetus
-look like fibroblast during development
2 trans factors of white
ppar and rxr
lipoblast development
midstage= ovoid
-have many lipid drops
-has a basal lamina and pinocyte vesicles
mature adipocyte
-one large lipid drop
-spherical
-more smoother er than rough er
-FLAT NUCLEUS
-few poorly developed mitochondria bc if there was more it would take up energy
-surrounded by type 3
mitochondria
needed in brown to make heat
type 3
reticular fibers
secreted by cells
brain gut axis
regulate shunger, satiety, energy
-all abt how hormones are secreted and go to the brain and alimetary tract (gastro)
short term weight regulation
control petite and metabolism daily
-2 homrones one an appetite stimulant and one a supressor
long term
leptin and insulin
insulin= regulate blood glucose
-resistan increases insulin resistance
glucose in the blood
converted to triglycerides/ lipid drop
fatty acid from blood becomes?
triglycerise that goes to the lipid drop
-MOBILIZATION
neural mobilization
the activation of lipase during starvation
-this will split the triglyceride
hormonal mobilization.
fatty acid release from adipocyte bu hormones and enzymes
-ex: insulin causing lipid synthesis
-ex: glucagon increases lipid ulitization
lipolysis
lipid drop breaks down
-use it
brown
lots of fat drops
-smaller than white
-round nucleus
-loose lipid and empty vacuoles
-many mitochondria
-small golgi, and ers
-color comes from the mitochondria
-has unmyelinated nerve fibers
-develop from mesenchyme
