Term
Name the 6 common Fatty Acids. #C's, double bonds, and where double bonds are located?
Definition
  • Palmitic Acid C16:0
  • Steric Acid C18:0
  • Oleic Acid C18:1 (9)
  • Linoleic Acid C18:2(9,12)
  • Linolenic Acid C18:3(9,12,15)
  • Archidonic Acid C20:4(5,8,11,14)
Term
How is Lypolysis Regulated?
Definition

(+) Epinepherine, Glucagon, Glucocorticoids

 

(-)Insulin, FFA(product)

Term
What tissue does not take up FFA?
Definition
Brain
Term
In what form does FFA travel throught the blood?
Definition
FFA-Albumin complex
Term
Where can Glycerol be utilized, and what determines that?
Definition

Glycerol Kinase

  • Liver, Kidney, Intestine, Brown Fat, Lactating mamary.
Term
What Fatty Acids are essential?
Definition

Linoleic and Linolenic

 

Arachidonic is NOT essential because it can be made from Linoleic Acid

Term

What does Malonyl-CoA inhibit?

Definition

CPT-I

Term
How many ATP's are produced and used during β Oxidation?
Definition
none
Term
What are the 4 enzymes used in β Oxidation?
Definition
  • Acyl-CoA DH: + FADH2
  • Enol-CoA DH
  • β-Hydroxyacyl-CoA DH: + NADH
  • β-Ketothiolase/Lyase: + Acetyl-CoA

End up with Fatty Acyl-CoA that is 2 Carbons shorter.

Term
Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenases and what happens when they are deficient?
Definition

>C12, LCAD: Problems appear in infancy. Failure to thrive. Hepatomegaly(Large Kidney). Nonketotic Hypoglycemia.

C6-C12, MCAD: Most common deficiency. mild Myopathy(muscle weakness)

<C6, SCAD: Very rare. Some infants have failure to thrive. Nonketotic Hypoglycemia. Myopathy.

Term
Carnitine Palmitoyl Transferase Deficienct (CPT)
Definition
  • can be either CPT1 or CPT2 depending on which one is messed up.
  • Autosomal Recessive
  • Typically no history of it.
  • Myoglobin in the urine
Term

During excercise, how long does it take to see symptoms of CPT2?McArdle Syndrome?

Definition

CPT2: 60-90min

 

McArdle: 15min

Term
How is CPK affected by CPT2?McArdle Syndrome?
Definition

CPT2: CPK levels are usually normal between episodes of myoglouria.

 

McArdle: CPK levels are often elevated between episodes of myogloburia.

Term
What percentage of people with CPT2/McArdle Syndrome have renal failure?
Definition

CPT2: 1/4 renal failure due to myogloburia.

 

McArdle: 1/2 renal failure due to myoglonuria.

Term
How is β Oxidation regulated?
Definition

(+) FFA, AMP-PK(muscle, liver)

 

(-) Insulin, NADH, FADH2, Malonyl-CoA(Inhibits CPT-I)
