| Structure of Glutathione | Tripeptide. Glycine, Cisteine, glutamate | (blank) | (blank) |
| Reduced form of glutathione is? | GSH | (blank) | (blank) |
| Oxidized form of glutathione is? | GSSG | (blank) | (blank) |
| What is the structural difference between GSH and GSSG? | disulfide bond. | (blank) | (blank) |
| What supplement would you take OTC to increase glutathione in the body? | NAC (N-acetyl cysteine) | (blank) | (blank) |
| Why do we have NADPH in the HMP pathway instead of NADH? | because it is unaffected when it comes to glycolysis. If NADH was used, then HMP would slow and speed up with glycolysis. That is not always needed. HMP can function regardless of energy levels | (blank) | (blank) |
| Where does HMP occur? | Cytosol (primarily in liver and adipose cells) | (blank) | (blank) |
| What are the two reversable steps in HMP? | 1 and 2 | (blank) | (blank) |
| Formation of NADP in HMP comes from? | G6PD, Glu 6 P dehydrogenase and malic enzymes | (blank) | (blank) |
| what is NADP used for? | lipogenesis, formation of steroidal hormones, Immune system for glutathione reduction. | (blank) | (blank) |
| Which is inhibited by catabolic feedbakc inhibition? NADPH or NADH | NADH | (blank) | (blank) |
| Why is fructose less regulated than glucose metabolism? | because it's insertion point into glycolysis is AFTER PFK1, the prime regulating enzyme. | (blank) | (blank) |
| How many theoretical ATP are produced in fructose metabolism? | 38 | (blank) | (blank) |
| Fructose (in RARE cases) | Fructose 6 Phosphate | Hexose Hexokinase | (blank) |
| Fructose (normally) | Fructose 1 Phosphate | Fructokinase | ATP, Mg+ |
| Essential Fructoseria is a defect of what? | fructokinases | (blank) | (blank) |
| Symptoms of essential frucoseria | large amounts of fructose in urine. | (blank) | (blank) |
| Fructose 1 Phosphate | Glyceraldehyde + DHAP | Aldose B | (blank) |
| Hereditary Fructose intolerance is related to a defect where? | Aldose B, it's blocked.. | (blank) | (blank) |
| What else does Hereditary fructose intolerance eliminate in urine other than fructose? | Phosphates | (blank) | (blank) |
| Where does DHAP come from? | either glycolysis or fructose metabolism | (blank) | (blank) |
| Name 3 insertion points of fructose metabolism into glycolysis | 1. Fructose 6 Phosphate 2. PGAL by triose Isomerase 3. PGAL by glyceraldehyde kinase and ATP. | (blank) | (blank) |
| Glyceraldehyde | Glycerol | alcohol dehydrogenase | NADH |
| Glyceraldehyde | PGAL | Glyceraldehyde Kinase | ATP |
| What does glycerol go on to do in fructose metabolism? | phosphoglycerols and triacylglycerols | (blank) | (blank) |
| What happens to blood level Mg + in a person with Hereditary fructose Intolerance? | It has no home! Phosphates are being urinated out, and Mg makes a living by attaching to Phosphates. | (blank) | (blank) |
| What is the normal ratio of Mg to Ca in the blood? | Mg is up, then Ca is up. Same. | (blank) | (blank) |
| With someone with Hereditary fructose intolerance, what happens to the Mg to Ca ratio | becomes inverse when Mg is up, Ca is down. | (blank) | (blank) |
| Why does the Ca level change in the blood in a person with hereditary fructose intolerance? | Because the excess Mg in the blood (due to lack of Phosphates) increases and inhibits parathyroid gland. The PT gland is responsible for reabsorbtion of Ca+, so Ca remains in the bone when Mg is increased. | (blank) | (blank) |
| How does Vit D play into hereditary fructose metabolism? | Because parathyroid is inhibited by excess mg, that means that Ca is lower in the blood, so the kidneys release vitamin D to pull calcium out of the bones and into the blood. The two mechanisms then compete with each other and the body becomes inbalanced. | (blank) | (blank) |
| Does fructose cause hypoglycemia in people with Hereditary Fructose Intolerance? | Yes! Fructose blocks the breakdown of glycogen causing hypoglcemic state. | (blank) | (blank) |
| Do all cells require insulin? | No . | (blank) | (blank) |
| WHat cells may not need insulin? Are they strictly regulated? | liver, kidney, testicular tissue, ovarian tissue, reticular of eye. No, they are less controlled because insulin is the moderator for glucose influx into cell. | (blank) | (blank) |
