Diabetes T1 T2
|
T1- problem w/ pancreas producing insulin
T2 - problem w/ peripheral cells using or responding to insulin |
|
diabetes symptoms
|
hyperglycemia
thirst - polydipsia excessive urine production rapid wt loss |
|
Metabolic effects of diabetes
|
body acts as if 'starved' of CHO
body fat mobilized - broken down - produce ketones - acidosis protein catabolized - ammonia released to buffer ketones |
|
pancreatic islet B cell failure
|
due to autoimmune disease
viral destruction of B cells |
|
Glucokinase genetic mutation
|
insulin release requires pancreatic glucose-sensing enzyme glucokinase & GLUT 2
mutations of either cause insulin release problems |
|
T2
|
insulin resistance in muscle and adipose cells
takes unusually lg amts of insulin to regulate or control blood glucose w/in normal limits |
|
Insulin Receptor
|
proteins
mutations in receptor |
|
GLUT problems
|
interrupted insulin signal - T2
blocked insulin signal in cell - failure of vesicles to move to cell surface - reduced GLUTs - reduced glucose uptake |
|
fat cells and diabetes
|
adipocytes show marked depletion of mRNA that encodes for GLUT 4 transporter protein = take in less glu
lg fat cells more insulin resistant - distorted cell membrane abdominal obesity = incr. visceral fat - associated w/ insulin resistance - release FA that inhibit glu metabolism and insulin receptor fxn |

Glycogenolysis
|
purpose: release of indiv. glu mol for further oxidation and use as fuel
glycogen phosphorlase debranching enzyme hexonase & gluconase Triggers: glucagon + epinephrine + insulin |
|
Glucogenesis
|
Purpose: provide glu to store as glycogen in muscle/liver
hepatocytes & muscle cells Glu enters - hexokinase / glucokinase extract IP from ATM and attach to glu making G-6-P glu G-6-P Glucogenesis - or - glucolysis |
|
# ATP needed to add 1 Glu to glycogen chain
|
1 ATP

|
Key Metabolic Pathways of Nutrients
|
Mitochondria: focus of CHO, lipid, AA metabolism
Citric Acid / Krebs cycle, Beta Oxidation of FA, ketogenesis, respiratory chain, ATP synthesis Cystosol: glycolysis, pentose phos pathway, FA synthesis Ribosomes: protein synthesis Endoplasmic Reticulum: Triglyceride synthesis |
|
Why store E as glycogen and not Fat
|
can't breakdown fat as quickly as glycogen
fat cannot be burned/used in the absence of O2 Fat cannot be converted to glucose glycogen takes too much space in cells and attracts lot of water |
|
w/o G-6-Phosphatase
|
only glucose in liver
can't dump glucose in blood hypoglycemic |
|
w/o debranching enzyme
|
cannot move glu to break 1,6 bond & release glu to make G-6-P & release glu to blood
only break down so far |
|
w/o glycogen phosphorylase in liver
|
can't break down glycogen at all
key step in breaking off glucose |
|
ETC & Oxidative Phosphorylation
BIG PICTURE |
Simple Combustion/oxidation:
glucose + fire = Co2 + H2O + Heat Cellular Oxidation: glucose [via metabolism] = Co2 + H2O + Heat + ATM CHO, Fat, Pro oxidized to: CO2, H2O, ATP, Heat ETC - 4 complexes (3 are pumps) overall driving force behind ETC = NADH2 wants to give up e- and O2 wants e- |
|
oxidative phosphorylation
|
MAJOR means of making ATP - indirect
ADP + P = ATP H collected and pumped through membrane space of mitochondria 1 NADH2 = 3 ATP via ATPase 1 FADH2 = 2 ATP |
|
How to Make ATP
BIG PICTURE |
Addition of P molecule in phosphorylation
2 ways: substrate level phosphorylation; oxidative phosphorylation phosphate anhydride bond holds onto bonds of ATP splitting of P bond is exothermic and releases E Adenosine - P~P~P -P = ADP + 7300cal/mol -2P = AMP + 7300cal/mol GLucose + P + 4000cals/mole = G-6-P 7300cal-4000cal to put P on G6P precursor = 3300 calories to maintain 98.6 temp |
|
Harvesting Hydrogens for NADH
|
NAD+ + e- = NAD
NAD + H = HADH NADH + H = NADH2 |
|

|
Krebs cycle
|
aerobic metabolism
final catabolic pathway of fat, protein, CHO - complete oxidation to Co2, H20, E oxidative rxns are dehydrogenations enzymes catalyze removal of 2H to an acceptor molecule FAD or NAD H's are source of E for formation of ATP in ETC |
|

Glycogenolysis
BIG PICTURE |
