Ketogenesis Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

UNE FINAL BIOCHEM LATEST EXAM!! What are the main products of beta oxidation? 1 NADH, 1 FADH, 1 Acetyl CoA So in the case of an 11-year-old girl brought to the emergency department by her father, he's reporting that she's been very thirsty and needing to make frequent strips to the bathroom. Today, she reported lightheadedness during a soccer game and symptoms did not resolve after drinking a power beverage. A rapid dipstick test revealed glucose in her urine and further diagnosis are con...

Control of Fatty Acid Synthesis vs. Oxidation - correct answer When Insulin is HIGH --> fatty acid synthesis occurs When Glucagon is HIGH --> lipolysis, fatty acid B-oxidation, ketogenesis occur **These never happen at the same time! Lipolysis - correct answer Process of releasing free fatty acids from triacylglycerols stored in the adipose IN THE FASTED STATE Steps of lipolysis - correct answer 1) Hormone Sensitive Lipase: activated by glucagon and epinephrine TAGs are hydroly...

NURS 5315 Advanced PathophysiologyOvarian cancer site of metastasis? - correct answer Peritoneal surfaces, omentum (fold of peritoneum connecting the stomach with other abdominal organs), *liver* The increased NADH/NAD+ ratio in the liver from ethanol causes: - correct answer 1. Pyruvate --> lactic acid, causing lactic acidosis 2. Oxaloacetate --> malate. This prevents gluconeogenesis and leads to hypoglycemia 3. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate --> glycerol 3- phosphate and combines wit...

Under fasting conditions (ratio of insulin to glucagon <1), elevated glucagon will activate which of the following enzymes? correct answer: Hormone sensitive lipase The process of ketogenesis refers to the conversion of acetyl CoA to which of the following compounds? correct answer: D-3-hydroxybutyrate or B-hydroxybutyrate During the fasted state, lipolysis is facilitated by the action of hormone sensitive lipase. This enzyme requires which of the following post - translational modifi...

In the fasted state, fatty acyl-CoA are transported across the mitochondrial membrane. The transport of fatty acids via carnitine palmitoyl transferase I (CPTI) can be directly inhibited by which of the following compounds? a. Malonyl CoA b. Carnitine c. Acetyl CoA d. Palmitate correct answer: Malonyl CoA A 22-year-old woman engaging in a political protest goes on a hunger strike on a prominent corner in a city park. She refuses all offers of food except for water for the first 2 we...

Exam 3: NURS611/ NURS 611 (Latest 2023/ 2024) Advanced Pathophysiology Exam | Questions and Verified Answers| Graded A- Maryville Q: The common cause of elevated levels of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion is: Answer: Ectopically produced ADH Q: Which laboratory value would the nurse expect to find if a person is experiencing syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH)? Answer: Serum Na level of 120 and serum hypo-osmolatlity. Q: A patient who is diagno...

An 11-year-old girl is brought to the emergency department by her father. He reports she has recently been very thirsty and needing to make frequent trips to the bathroom. At her soccer game today, she complained of lightheadedness and that the symptoms did not resolve even after drinking a power beverage. A rapid dipstick test revealed glucose in her urine and further diagnostics are consistent with a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. Evaluation of this girl's liver would reveal an increased rate ...

UNE Medical Biochemistry Unit 3 Review (For this guide, I made the questions from the video lectures, study guides, and quiz/test reviews) Rated A+ What occurs when glucagon is high and insulin is low? Beta-oxidation During the fasted state, the liver uses ______ as fuel and the pathway is _______. Fatty acids, Lipolysis in the adipose During the fasted state, the red blood cell uses ______ as fuel and the pathway is _______. Glucose, Hepatic glycogenolysis, and gluconeogenesis During t...
