Integrated Metabolism • Biochemistry of the organs • Liver Muscle Kidney • Heart Brain Adipose • Communication between organs • Cori cycle Glucose-Alanine cycle • Metabolic stress • Starvation and ketosis • Diabetes and ketosis
Liver (The major anabolic organ) Biosynthesis of blood constituents Plasma proteins Gluconeogenesis Glycogen Fatty acids, triacylglycerols Cholesterol Ketone bodies VLDL, HDL Urea synthesis Bile salts Communication with other organs Target of hormones Rich in mitochondria
Brain Major glucose consumer Limited energy stores Oxygen dependent Major ATP producer Consumes glucose and ketone bodies Hormone insensitive Shielded by BBB
Heart Completely aerobic Consumes mostly fat, low glucose use Mitochondria rich Low energy reserves Consumes ketone bodies Insulin insensitive
Muscle Uses all fuel sources Exertion uses glucose; no exertion fatty acids Relies on glycogen during exertion Requires insulin to absorb blood glucose Major producer of blood lactate-anaerobic Stores ATP energy as creatine-PO4 (phosphocreatine)
Adipose Cells Major depositors of energy Hormone-sensitive lipase Insulin-dependent glucose transport Triacylglycerol synthesis glucose-dependent Lacks glycerol kinase
70% of ATP used for resorption Glucose-6-phosphatase Weak gluconeogenic activity Kidney
Pancreas Secretes digestive enzymes in inactive form Alpha cells make glucagon Beta cells make insulin Delta cells make somatostatin Responsive to blood glucose
Regulation of Insulin Secretion PANCREAS 3 types of cells Alpha: glucagon Beta: Insulin Delta: somatostatin p. 903
