Lipoproteins
esterified FA
26
Free FA transported through the blood in complex with
serum albumin
27
Chylomicrons are TAG
rich
28
VLDL are TAG
rich
29
LDL is cholesterol
rich BAD Cholesterol
30
HDL is cholesterol and protein
rich GOOD cholesterol
31
free esterified FA leaves the adipocyte and binds to albumin transported to tissue where it is
activated by CoA derivative then OXIDISED
32
beta oxidation pathway degrades FAs
two carbons at a time
33
beta oxidation of FA produces
Acetyl CoA NADH + FADH2 (sources of energy)
34
Beta oxidation of FA occurs in the
mitochondrial matrix
35
3 stages of beta oxidation
activation transport degradation
36
Transport of FA into the
mitochondria
37
FA is activated to form ......... in the .............
fatty acyl CoA cytoplasm
38
CAT-1 (carnitine fatty acyl-transferase) is inhibited by
malonyl CoA
39
Carnitine from our
diet lysine + methionine (liver/kidney)
40
Carnitine shuttle transports ........ from outside to the inside of the........
long-chain fatty acyl CoA mitochondria
41
CAT-1 deficiency
hypoglycaemia improves with IV glucose t
42
therapy for CAT-1 deficiency is to give
medium chain FA that do not require CAT for mitochondrial transport
43
Degradation 4 step
dehydrogenation (FADH2) hydration dehydrogenation (NADH) thiolysis (acetyl CoA)
44
Thiolysis produces Acetyl CoA to feed into the
TCA cycle
45
7 beta oxidations would produce ........ acetyl CoA
8
46
1 glucose molecules creates
32 ATP
47
beta oxidation is less efficient in the
peroxisome
48
Animal cannot convert FA to
glucose
49
excess acetyl CoA from fat metabolism can be converted into
ketone bodies
50
which muscles use ketone bodies as fuel?
cardiac and skeletal
51
uncontrolled diabetes gives
ketone bodies
52
Where do we get FA?
Acetyl CoA diet
53
Carnitine shuttle only occurs when....
citrate concentration in the mitochondria is too high
54
FA synthesis requires
Acetyl CoA and NADPH
55
Acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC) is needed for formation of
malonyl CoA
56
ACC is activated by........... and deactivated by ............
citrate palmitoyl CoA
57
How many NADPH needed for plamitate synthesis?
14
58
Acetyl CoA ---> FA ----> TAG ---->
VLDL ---> adipose tissue
59
Cholesterol is the starting material for the synthesis of
steroid hormones
60
Cholesterols
component of the cell membrane made mainly in the liver found in animal only Acetyl CoA --> cholesterol --> vit D/ steroid hormones etc etc
61
Statins lower...
LDL levels
62

63
eicosanoids are derived from
omega 3 or 6 FA
64
eicosanoids regulate
inflammatory response pain and fever blood pressure
