Document Summary
Blood metabolites that produce atp in muscle: glucose, triacylglycerol, bhb, lactate. Metabolites that circulate in blood: glucose, triacylglycerol, lactate. Blood glucose can arise from the following: blood lactate, liver glycogen, gut absorption. Animal converts glucose to co2 and h2o to produce atp. G6p enters the pentose phosphate pathway to produce nadph. Animal converts glucose to triacylglycerol to store energy long-term. Animal converts fatty acids to co2 and h2o to produce atp. Animal converts fatty acids to triacylglycerol for long-term energy storage. Animal converts glucose to glycogen for short-term glucose storage. Compounds that are proteins: hexokinase, insulin receptor, pyruvate dehydrogenase, phosphofructokinase-1, Endogenous glucose production includes: liver glycogen breakdown, hepatic gluconeogenesis. The liver is responsible for producing glucose from inside the body (endogenous) when there is nothing coming in from outside of the body (exogenous) Endogenous glucose production + exogenous glucose absorption = glucose utilization. The end products of glucose metabolism are: triacylglycerol, glycogen, co2.
