hormone-sensitive lipase catalyzes
TGL --> glycerol + FAs
hormone-sensitive lipase stimulated by
fall in insulin
epi
cortisol

no glucagon receptors on adipose tissue
niacin inhibits
HSL
glycerol fate
transported to liver for gluconeogenesis
FA fate
transported to liver for beta-oxidation to acetyl-CoA
acetyl-CoA undergoes ketogenesis to produce
ketone bodies + TCA cycle intermed
substrate for gluconeogenesis
dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP)
tissues that perform beta-oxidation of FAs
liver
muscle
adipose

not brain or RBCs
oxidation of very long chain FAs (>20) occurs where
peroxisomes
what FAs diffuse into mito to be oxidaized
short and medium chain
short chain FAs
2-4C
medium chain FAs
6-12
carnitine acyltransferase=
carnitine palmitoyl transferase
what allows long-chain FAs to enter mito
carnitine transport
fatty acyl-CoA synthetase located where
outer mito membrane
Fatty acyl-CoA synthetase function
activates FAs by attaching CoA
carnitine acyltransferase-1 function
transfers fatty acyl to carnitine (outer mito membrane) - CoA released

fatty acylcarnitine then shuttled across inner membrane
carnitine acyltransferase-2 function
transfers fatty acyl group back to CoA (mito matrix)
RLS of FA entry into mito
carnitine acyltransferase-1
carinitine acyltransferase-1 inhibited by
malonyl-CoA from FA synthesis
beta-oxidation of palmitate (16:0) yields
8 acetyl-CoA
addition of CoA to FA by fatty acyl-CoA synthetase requires
ATP
FA-CoA oxidized to acetyl CoA by what enzyme
fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD, LCAD)
MCAD/LCAD rxns require what
FAD --> FADH2
NAD --> NADH
muscle aches
weakness
myoglobinuria
provoked by prolonged exercise, esp during fast
myopathic carnitine acyltransferase (CAT)/CPT deficiency
CAT deficiency dx
bx: elevated mm. triglyceride (lipid droplets in cyto)
myopathic CAT defieciency inheritance
AR
late-onset
fasting hypoglycemia
no ketone bodies (hypoketosis)
C8-C10 acyl carnitines in blood
vomiting
coma, death
MCAD deficiency

no ATP to support gluconeogenesis
pyruvate carboxylase inhibited
MCAD deficiency inheritance
AR with variable expression
possible reason for SIDS
MCAD deficiency
nonketotic hypoglycemia
block in hepatic beta-oxidation
may be provoked by illness (flu) that causes n/v, or by overnight fast in infant
severe hypoglycemia in MCAD deficiency
MCAD deifiency tx
IV glucose

prevent with frequent feeding, high carb, low fat diet
propionyl acid pathway
final beta-oxidation step of odd #C FAs yields 1 acetyl-CoA and one propionyl-CoA
