The below mentioned article provides a short note on the Economics of Carbohydrate and Lipid Metabolism in the whole body. Glucose is converted to fat under optimal nutritional intake. Except glycerol, fat (as fatty acid) cannot produce glucose due to the irreversibility of the oxidative decarÂboxylation of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA. Certain tissues are more dependent on the continued supply of [...]
The following points highlight the top two stages for regulation of lipid metabolism. The stages are: 1. Regulation of Lipogenesis 2. Regulation of Ketogenesis. Regulation of Lipogenesis: a. Lipogenesis is concerned with the conÂversion of glucose and intermediate such as pyruvate, lactate and acetyl-CoA to fat. b. The rate of lipogenesis is high in case of a diet containing a [...]
The following points highlight the top four stages for reregulation of carbohydrate metabolism. The stages are: 1. Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolism at the Cellular and Enzymatic Level 2. Regulation of Glycolysis, Gluconeo-Genesis and Hexose Monophosphate Shunt 3. Regulation of Glycogen Metabolism 4. Regulation of the Citric Acid Cycle. Stages for Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolism: Contents: Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolism at [...]
