-
Ketone bodies made from carbon skeleton from AA metabolism?
Acetone, Acetoacetate, Beta-hydroxy butyrate
-
Difference between Hartnup/Cystinuria and Marasmus/Kwashiorkor?
Hartnup/Cystinuria = no protein malabsorption
Marasmus/Kwashiorkor = protein malabsorption
-
Kwashikor
protein contents in diet?
no, characterized by decrease in protein consumption (similar to Marasmus)
-
Kwashikor
Caloric intake?
normal
-
Kwashikor
suffer from fatty liver & subcutaneous fat?
yes and yes
-
Kwashikor
pellagra like symptoms?
Yes (bc protein malabosortpion so Trp can't make niacin, therefore niacin deficiency)
-
Kwashikor
plasma level of free A.A.?
No (bc caloric intake is fine)
-
Kwashikor
Hypoalbuminemia and edema?
Yes and yes (remember that they're fat so edema and low albumin serum levels)
-
Marasmus
protein content in diet?
low
-
Marasmus
caloric intake?
low
-
Marasmus
suffer from fatty liver?
no
-
Marasmus
subcutaneous fat?
no
-
-
Marasmus
plasma level of free A.A.?
normal (bc skeletal muscle is broken down to make AA in blood)
-
Marasmus
Hypoalbuminemia and edema?
No and no
-
Glucogenic AA's?
- PAFSO (P = CThreeSWAG, A = GHArPG, F = FAsT, S = Il(ove)MTV, O = Aspartate, Asparagine)
- P = pyruvate; A = Alpha-Keto Gluterate, F = Fumerate, S= Succinyl CoA, O = Oxaloacetate)
-
Ketogenic AA's (i.e. give rise to Acetyl CoA)?
Leucine and Lysine
-
Both Keto- and Glucogenic?
FIsY-Tryp = (W,Phe,Isoleucine,Tyrosine)
