Which factor in fat regulation is believed to increase due to increased demand for TG which is signaled by prostaglandins acting as a ligang?
PPARgamma2... which will then recruit mesenchymal cell --> adipose…

NOTE: mutation in PPARgamma2 --> obesity
What are the following factors responsible for? PPARgamma2, C/EBP AND ADD1/SREBP1… which one is considered by increased TG and is related to prostaglandins?

Give the equation for FFM.
Fat Free Mass = total mass - fat mass
What is the resting metabolic rate based on?
Fat free mass
T/F energy expenditure is based on FFM.
False… energy expenditure is related total body mass
Why is it that as Fat Mass increases, so does circulating Leptin?
Why is it that as Fat Mass increases, so does circulating Leptin? Leptin signal for decrease appetite… thus as fat mass increases more leptin is needed set the hunger set point
Match the following factors (Leptin, Insulin, Ghrelin, GABA, ∂MSH, AgRP, NPY) to their location of action and indicate the effect (+/-): (POMC NEURON of Hypothalamus, NPY/AgRP Neuron of the hypothalamus, MC4-® of paraventricular nucleus, Y-® of the paraventricular nucleus).
Leptin and Insulin are both (+) at the POMC neuron and (-) at the NPY/AgRP neuron… Ghrelin is (+) at eh NPY/AgRP neuron… NYP is negative at NPY/AgRP, and POMC Neuron and (+) at the Paraventricular nucleus… ∂MSH is (+) at the MC4-®… AgRP blocks the MC4-®... GABA (-) at the POMC neuron... POMC is anorexic... and NPY is hunger
What may explain why leptin injections have not been useful as Rx in obesity?
Obesity leads to Leptin resistance
How does obesity lead to CAD?
Obesity --> DM + hyperlipidemia + HTN --> CAD
T/F obesity is related to cancers, breast, colon and uterine.
TRUE
