metab of dietary lipids

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
lipids   hydrophobic. Extracted by nonpolar solvents (ether)  
🗑
Lipids Found in?   Membrane. Adipocytes. Plasm as lipoprotein particles  
🗑
Lipid kcal/g?   Major source of energy, 9 kcal/g  
🗑
Lipids act as?   Regulators and Co-factors (fat-soluble vitamins  
🗑
Lipids are precursors to?   Prostaglandins (for clotting)Steroid hormones  
🗑
Can make fat out of sugar but...   not sugar out of fat  
🗑
Dietary Lipids   TriglyceridesCholesterolCholesteryl esters(cholesterol + fatty acid)Phospholipds (phosphate and glycerol)Unesterified fatty acids (free fatty acids)  
🗑
Enzymes responsible for dietary lipids before absorption...In the stomach   Ligual and gastric lipases  
🗑
Ligual and gastric lipases   Catalyze the digestion of triacylglycerols (fatty acids + short- or medium-chain)Acid-stable enzymes  
🗑
Digestion of triacylglycerols with fatty acids of long-chain... what is this action called?   emulsification  
🗑
Emulsification is facilitated by?   Bile salts (produced by liver from cholesterol and stored in gallbladder). Peristalsis  
🗑
Pancreatic enzymes   Pancreatic lipases. Cholesterol ester hydrolase (cholesterol esterase). Phospholipase A2 Lysophospholipase  
🗑
Pancreatic lipases   remove fatty acids from triacylglycerol Activated by bile salt  
🗑
Orlistat   inhibits lipases è undigested lipids è fat malabsorption è weight loss  
🗑
Colipase   (binds to lipase (intestinal or pancreatic) for better lipid digestion  
🗑
Cholesterol ester hydrolase (cholesterol esterase)   hydrolyzes cholesterol esters Cholesterol esters è free cholesterol + free fatty acids  
🗑
Phospholipase A2 lysophospholipid   catalyzes the hydrolytic removal of FA form carbon 2 of phospholipid= FFA + lysophospholipid  
🗑
Lysophospholipase   removes FA on carbon 1 from lysophospholipidGlycerylphosphoryl base is excreted or absorbed  
🗑
Absorption of Lipids by intestinal mucosal cells   Dietary lipid è Free FAs + Free cholesterol + 2-monoacylglycerol è forms mixed micelles with bile salts for absorption  
🗑
Mixed micelles are ?   water soluble . transport of the digested lipids . absorbed by the brush border membrane  
🗑
Short and medium chain length FAs are absorbed without   mixed micelle structure  
🗑
Long chain FAs Synthesis   After absorption, lipids migrate to the ER  
🗑
ER   site of complex lipid biosynthesis. è FAs (+) by acetylation using fatty acyl CoA synthetase (thiokinase)  
🗑
Fatty acyl CoA synthetase   Synthesis of triacylglycerols. Esterification of cholesterol  
🗑
Triacylglycerol synthase   Converts 2-monoacylglycerols to triacylglycerols  
🗑
Acyltransferase   Reacylates lysophospholipids to phospholipids  
🗑
Acyl CoA: cholesterol acyltransferase   Esterifies cholesterol to cholesterol ester  
🗑
Roles of Albumin   universal transporter. Most abundant in blood. Carries fatty acid(short and medium chain). Non-specific  
🗑
Roles of Bile salts, place of production and storage?   Facilitates the emulsification of long chain fatty acids. produced by liver from cholesterol. stored in gallbladder  
🗑
Regulation of digestion...   Pancreatic secretion are hormonally controlled  
🗑
Cholecystokinin (CCK)   produced by Jejunum and lower duodenum cells.  
🗑
CCK roles:   release of bile salts. Secretion of pancreatic lipases. Decrease in gastric motitlity. Synthesis of other hormones eg Secretin  
🗑
Secretin   released by intestinal cells at low pH due to entry of chime. Low pH inhibits pancreatic enzymes for lipid digestion. Causes the pancreas to secrete bicarbonate. Biocarbonate neutralizes and adjust the pH for optimal enzymatic activity  
🗑
Name the enzymes that are: Acid stable   Lingual and gastric lipases  
🗑
Name the enzymes that are: Acid sensitive   Secretin  
🗑
Lipoprotein lipase   releases triglycerides contained in chylomicrons in the capillaries of: Muscle,Adipose tissues, Lactating mammary gland, Lung, Kidney,Liver  
🗑
Familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency   Autosomal recessive disorder, Massive chylomicronemia  
🗑
Fates of Free FAs   Taken by muscle cells or adipocytes. Bound to albumin for further transportation in the blood. Oxidized to synthesize ATP in cells containing mitochondria  
🗑
Fates of Glycerol   glycerol to glycerol 3-phosphate (liver). Glycolysis(energy need). Gluconeogenesis (glucose need  
🗑
Fates of Chylomicron remnants   Cholesteryl esters. Phospholipids. Apolipoproteins. Triacylglcerol (few)  
🗑
Type III hyperliproteinemia   malfunction of the removal of chylomicron remnants by the liver  
🗑
Cystic fibrosis   Malfunction of exocrine cells of Liver, pancrease, and gallbladder  
🗑
Shortened bowel   Steatorrhea = elimination of dietary lipids and fat soluble vitamins in feces  
🗑
Chylomicrons are?   large lipoprotein particles that transport dietary lipids from the intestines to other locations in the body. one of the five major groups of lipoproteins (chylomicrons, VLDL, IDL, LDL, HDL.  
🗑
Chylomicrons enable fat and cholesterol to...   move within the water-based solution of the bloodstream.  
🗑
