Q

synthesis of ___ is the commitment step of fatty acid synthesis

A

Malonyl CoA

Acetyl CoA + ATP + HCO3- (acetyl CoA carboxylase) = Malyonyl Coa

24
Q

what are some inhibitors to the commitment step of fatty acid synthesis

A

Acetyl CoA (acetyl CoA carboxylase) = Malyonyl Coa

palmotoyl acid (16 chain end product)
AMP
Glucagon
Epinephrine

(all these things trigger the cell to say Iow blood glucose, need to break down storage or make glucose for energy)

25
what are some activators to the commitment step of fatty acid synthesis
Acetyl CoA (acetyl CoA carboxylase) = Malyonyl Coa citrate insulin (insulin means high glucose in blood, glucose can be used to make other stuff)
26
___ is important for fatty acid transport into Mitochondrial matrix for beta oxidation
carnitine
27
beta oxidation is ___ by malonyl CoA
inhibited carnitine (carnitine acyltransferase 1)= Acyl carnitine this process blocked by malonyl CoA -stops the transport of fatty acids into mitochondrial matrix and therefore B oxidation
28
Triacylglycerol and cholesterol are nearly ___ in water. they are carried in the blood as lipoprotein complexes
insoluable
29
the surface of lipoprotein complexes resemble the surface of membranes, containing phospholipids, proteins and cholesterol. The hydrophobic components ___ and ___ are buried in the interior of the complex
Triacylglycerol cholesteryl esters
30
dietary Triacylglycerol and cholesterol are carried in complexes called ___ that are produecd in the small intestine
chylomicrons
31
endogenous Triacylglycerol and cholesterol made by the liver are released into the blood in a complex called the ___
very low density lipoprotein | VLDL
32
abnormalities in blood lipids and lipoproteins can help in the diagnosis of
hypothyroidism cushings pancreatitis
33
liver produces VLDL which has high ___ and low ___. as
Triacylglycerol | cholesterol
34
the VLDL moves through the body the Triacylglycerol are broken down (hydrolyzes) by ___ which is present in the capillaries of ___
lipoprotein lipase muscle, adipose and other tissues
35
IDL with lipoprotein lipase =
LDL and fatty acids
36
fatty acids are used for energy by ___ , for synthesis of other molecules such as ___ or for storage in the form of ____
muscles, heart phospholipids triacylglycerols (in adipose)
37
LDL is taken into the cell by ___ to deliver cholesterol required for membrane and biosynthetic processes
endocytosis
38
LDL is taken up by the ___ to regulate LDL levels in the blood
liver
39
fattu acids in the blood are bound to ___ to protect cells from the detergent properties of free fatty acids
serum albumin
40
type of dog that gets hyperlipidemia
miniature schnauzers
41
after a meal- blood glucose and insulin are high, triacylglycerols synthesis will be ___ in adipocytes because glucose from blood is converted to glycerol 3 phosphate, which is required for triacylglycerols synthesis. triacylglycerol breakdown will be ___ because high insulin and low glucagon ___ hormone sensitive lipase
high low inhibit
42
DURING FASTING BG and insulin are low, Tri synthesis in adipocycles will ___, because they have little glucose to covert to glycerol 3 phosphate. Tri deg will ___ because hormone sensitive lipase is stimulated by high glucagon and low insulin. This leads to the release of fatty acids to the blood that can be oxidized by the tissues to make ____
decrease increase ATP
43
during faster the liver will convert fatty acids from adipose tissue into ____
ketone bodies
44
ketone bodies are exported form the liver and can be taken up by other tissues and converted to ____
Acetyl CoA
45
what tissues can use ketones for energy
cardiac muscle | renal cortex
46
during starvation, in the liver, oxaloacetate drops as it is used for gluconeogenesis, this will ___ the TCA cycle in liver cells. which leads to the accumulation of acetyl CoA from B oxidation of fatty acids and increases ketone body synthesis by the liver
decrease
47
during starvation, the tissues of the body, including the brain, will adapt yo use ___ as their major source of energy, this helps preserve protein in muscles and other tissues until triacylglycerols reserves are depleted
ketone bodies
48
how do liver cells get their energy
B oxidation making fatty acids***
49
what are the advantages of converting fatty acids to ketone bodies?
much more soluble. less soap like, easier to convert
50
what is the downside of the liver converting fatty acids to ketone bodies?
ketoacidosis decrease in pH of the body
51
low blood glucose can be caused by
fasting pregnancy lactation
52
low insulin or low insulin response can be caused by
Diabetes
53
explain diabetic ketoacidosis
glucose can not be taking into cells, Liver tries to make more glucose by breaking down fatty acids. This releases ketones as a bi product excess ketones lead to PH drop leads to coma and death
54
Bovine ketosis due to pregnancy/lactation have a higher risk of fatty liver. Treatments are ___
***
55
in Sheep ketosis can happen late in pregnancy if ewe is carrying more than 1 fetus. Symptoms: Treament:
fatty liver and high mortality ***
56
equine hyperlipidemia caused by stress, obesity, lactation and pregnancy. high serum lipids occur which results in accumulation of triacylglycerols in liver, kidneys and other organs treatment
feeding tube
57
feline hepatic lipidosis occurs when cat refused to eat for several days. triacylglycerols build up in liver and disrupt normal function treatment
feeding tube
