- In addition to its role in energy storage, adipose tissue also accumulates cholesterol. (jci.org)
- Acetyl CoA is used for fatty acid synthesis and cholesterol synthesis. (proprofs.com)
- A bile acids life begins as cholesterol is catabolized, as bile acid is a derivative of cholesterol. (smpdb.ca)
Muscles2
- Weight loss and periods of hunger trigger an increase in plasma adiponectin levels, which in turn activate glucose utilization within muscles. (biyokimya.vet)
- Also during exercise, contraction of muscles promotes utilization of glucose. (howmed.net)
Bloodstream2
- In a healthy person, excess fat is stored as triglycerides in the adipose tissue, and fatty acids are released into the bloodstream only in response to an increased energy requirement, for example, during fasting. (jci.org)
- Fats are ready and available for when our glucose stores run low between meals, and it makes sense for lipolysis to occur as it will facilitate the movement of these stored fats through our bloodstream. (imingo.net)
Type-1 diabet1
- METHODS: Continuous glucose monitoring data of 27 adults affected by type-1 diabetes were acquired by means of G6 (Dexcom, San Diego, CA) sensors for a time span of 120 days. (bvsalud.org)
FFAs1
- Several studies have demonstrated that NAFLD is associated with insulin resistance leading to a resistance in the antilipolytic effect of insulin in the adipose tissue with an increase of free fatty acids (FFAs). (mdpi.com)
Hormones2
- These are hormones derived from the amino acids tyrosine and tryptophan. (50webs.org)
- albumin has a low affinity for sex hormones, so the albumin-bound androgens are readily available to tissues. (medscape.com)
Promotes1
- Glucose is converted into glycerol in adipose tissues and thus insulin promotes deposition of fat. (howmed.net)
Precursors1
- Other metabolites such as glucose, fructose, acetate and the branched-chain amino acids leucine and isoleucine also serve as precursors of acetyl-CoA and contribute carbons to the de novo synthesis of fatty acids that will enter DNL ( Wallace 2020 ). (biocrates.com)
Excess3
- Even excess level of glucose can lead to further complications such as diabetes or damage to organs. (myprojectwriters.com)
- It also has the ability to convert excess glucose into fatty acids for long-term energy storage. (proprofs.com)
- Androgen excess can affect different tissues and organs, causing variable clinical features such as acne, hirsutism, virilization and reproductive dysfunction. (medscape.com)
Phosphate2
- In hepatocytes, free fatty acids are esterified with glycerol-3-phosphate to generate triacylglycerol (TAG). (irjs.info)
- Predicted to be part of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase complex. (mcw.edu)
Insulin-independent2
- Of note, some tissues do not require insulin to uptake glucose (insulin-independent glucose uptake). (picmonic.com)
- Part of the glucose absorbed in the intestine is transported into the hepatocytes with the help of the insulin-independent transporter GLUT2 (KM 15-20 mM). (helmberg.at)
Meals1
- These actions ensure that glucose will be available to glucose-dependent tissues between meals. (basicmedicalkey.com)
Mice5
- We used loss- and gain-of-function approaches including genetic manipulation of the lipolytic enzyme Pnpla2 , change in environmental temperature, and lifestyle interventions to comprehensively test the premise that a thermogenic-like BAT phenotype is coupled with enhanced glucose tolerance in female mice. (diabetesjournals.org)
- DIM decreased STZ-increased high blood glucose levels and food and water intake in diabetic mice. (researchgate.net)
- To generate mice lacking TGs in adipose tissue (ADGAT DKO), we crossed adipose tissue-specific Dgat1 knockout mice (Cre-transgene expressed under control of the mouse adiponectin promoter 3 ) with Dgat2 flox mice 4 . (elifesciences.org)
- However, the adipose tissue mass (45 %) and leptin plasma levels (2-fold) were significantly greater in apoCIII mice. (biomedcentral.com)
- Transgenic mice overexpressing human apoCIII have marked elevated TG and non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) levels [ 21 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
Increases1
- whereas they utilize glucose for a few hours after a meal which is insulin dependent (insulin increases the permeability of membranes to glucose). (howmed.net)
Mitochondria3
- Pyruvate is definitely channeled into the mitochondria and completely oxidized to generate ATP through the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle (Fig. 1) and oxidative phosphorylation. (irjs.info)
- In system, the capacity of person to its EPH is to referred aka retardation acid and to reutilization of mitochondria by family synthesis. (erik-mill.de)
- Revisiting 7a-hydroxy-cholestene-3-one, the second chain of reactions it is involved in follows a similar path as the first, moving through the mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and peroxisome until choloyl-CoA is formed, which then is used in three reactions so that its derivatives may leave the cell to interact with intestinal microflora and become taurodeoxycholic acid, deoxycholic acid glycine conjugate and deoxycholic acid.
