BIOC/DENT/PHCY 230 LECTURE 1
Overview of Metabolism Metabolism: sum total of reactions Catabolism: breakdown of polymers and macromolecules Anabolism: synthesis of macromolecules and polymers
Energy homeostasis: Extraction Storage Regulation
PEPTIDE STEROID AMINO ACID DERIVED Hormonal regulation of metabolism Insulin Glucagon Growth Hormone Cortisol Adrenaline Thyroid hormone
I I I I I I I I Synthesised in thyroid gland Requires protein (thyroglobulin) and iodide 75% of thyroid protein is thyroglobulin Gland epithelia have Na/I symporter T3 T4 Thyroid Hormones Increase metabolic rate Glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis & hormone sensitive lipase activity H2O2
CORTISOL Glucocorticoid gluconeogenesis, glycogen synthesis, lipolysis, liver protein and RNA synthesis aldosterone cortisol CHOLESTEROL
PLASMA TARGET CELL transcortin T3 T4 T3 THR ITBP T4 binding globulin Both cortisol and T3 affect transcription cortisol CR CORTISOL
Glucose as a fuel Tissue usage: all tissues, brain and RBC are obligate users Dietary forms: mono- and disaccharides, glycogen, starch, cellulose Stored as : glycogen Processed by: glycolysis, CAC, ETC
GLUCOSE FRUCTOSE GALACTOSEMANNOSE GLYCEROL
Strategy of glycolysis Splitting reaction
Energy investment 6 carbon 3 carbon Cost = 2ATP
x2 Energy generation Yield = 4 ATP Net = 2 ATP
Fates of pyruvate pyruvate -O2 +O2 CAC,ETC fermentation
animals lactate
yeast ethanol
COO- COO- C C CH3 CH3 pyruvate lactate LDH O + NADH + H+ H OH + NAD+ reduced oxidised oxidised reduced
THE TAKE HOME MESSAGE Metabolism can be hormonally regulated Glucose is a major fuel Glucose can yield energy via glycolysis The end products of glycolysis can be metabolised either anaerobically or aerobically
