    qualitative changes in the body composition of crustaceans (Gilbert and Mathieu, 1980; Barclay et al 1983). The relative importance of different metabolite reserve depends on the period of starvation as well as on species-specific differences in metabolism and its regulation (Hervant et al, 1999; Caruso et al, 2008).

    Thus, the feces contain unabsorbed dietary calcium and unreabsorbed digestive juice calcium. The metabolism of calcium and phosphorus is closely related and influenced by parathyroid hormone (PTH), vitamin D, and, to a lesser extent, calcitonin. Bone remodeling of calcium and phosphorus integrates for four systems. The gastrointestinal system of endocrine…

    The enzyme, succinyl coenzyme A synthetase, acts on the conversion of the succinyl group succinate. A decrease in the ATP production of the mitochondria may occur if there is a deficiency of this enzyme. The decrease is seen during the phosphorylation of succinyl CoA to succinate. With this decrease, the cells would produce lactic acid in order to get ATP leading the cell to be non-functional. The deficiency of the enzyme, and the increase in lactic acid causes fatal infantile lactic acid…

    1. Flavin monooxygenase (FMO) and cytochrome P450 (CYP450) are both enzymes that are involved in phase I metabolism. They are classified as microsomal enzymes that require oxygen and NADPH. These enzymes are involved in the conversion of lipophilic compounds to more hydrophilic metabolites by adding molecular oxygen, which ensures rapid excretion. There are genetic variants with both classes of enzymes, which may contribute to interindividual variability in drug response. Some of the…
