The absorptive state is what time frame
2 - 4 hr after ingestion of a normal meal.
Islet tissue of pancreas respond to elevated levels of glucose and aa with secretion of
Insulin and a drop in release of glucagon
What makes teh absorptive state into an anabolic period with increase TAG and glycogen replenishing fuel storage
The elevated Insulin/ Glucagon ration
Which is elevated in plama during absorptive period (vs postabsorptive state)
Chylomicrons
Are acetoacetate, free FA, and lactate levels elevated in the absorptive state?
No
What major synthesis is made in liver in absorptive state (besides glucose0
Fructose 2, 6, BP
Increased formation of Keton bodies during fasting is a result of
Free FA bound to albumin are incrase as a result of an incrase activity of Hormone-sensitive lipase in adipose tissue
Most important source of blood glucose during last hours of a 48-hr fast
The carbon skeletons of Glycogenic aa used for gluconeogenesis
Liver glycogen is depleted how soon after a meal?
12 hours,
Why can't muscle glycogen give rise to free glucose
Lacks glucose-6-phosphatase
Not a source of glucose but part of the glocogenesys pathway
Acetoacetate that is metabolized to acetyl CoA
Can arise from anaerobic glycolysis in muscle and RBC, less important than aa as a source of glucose
Lactic Acid
Pathway that provides acetyl Coa for Ketogenesis
B-Oxidation of FA
Hepatic ketogenesis is stimulated by elevated levels of
Glucagon
In what state, fed not fed stae is glucokinaswe synthesis enhanced
Fed state
