Cards

Term
Lipoproteins
Definition
- required for transpor tof lipid in the blood
- maintains solubility
- composed of pro, PL, chol, & TAG
- classified according to density
Term
Apoproteins
Definition
- protein components
- provide stability
- distinquish bw LP
Term
Chylomicrons
Definition
- packaged in golgi
- LP formed after meal in mucosal cell of SI
- rich in TAG, enter blood via lymph
Term
Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL)
Definition
- catalyzes hydrolysis of chylomicra TA to allow for cellular uptake
Term
Synthesis of Chylomicrons
Definition
- recombining of FA +2MG in SER->TG
- transported in LP; intestinal cells package TG w/pro, PL, CE
Term
Transport of Chylomicrons
Definition
- Exocytosis->lymph->blood
- enter blood w/i 1-2hrs post meal
- prevents huge "spike" in BL)
Term
LDL
Definition
- LP formed in circulation when TAG is removed from IDL by LPL
- major chol carrying LP
- removed by LDL receptors or processes in other organs
- most atherogenic LP
Term
VLDL
Definition
- formed in liver, secreted into blood
- transports TG made in liver to other tissues
- contains chol & CE
- converted to LDL in blod by LPL
Term
The LDL receptor
Definition
- transmembrane glycoprotein w/5 defined domains
- interacts w/apo B-100 & apo-E on surface of LDL (facilitating internalization)
- # of receptros found on cells varies according to chol requirement
Term
IDL
Definition
- formed in blood by removal of TG from VLDL
- intermediate density
- little nutritional importance
Term
HDL
Definition
- synth & taken up by liver
- promotes reverse cholesterol transport
- LCAT forms CE from free chol
- low levels = risk for CVD
Term
Apo C
Definition
- activates LPL
- impt in CM & VLDL
Term
Apo B (48 & 100)
Definition
- stimulates receptor-mediated endocytosis of LDL
- impt in CM & VLDL
Term
Apo A
Definition
- activates LCAT
- impt to allow HDL to reform into VLDL in liver
Term
Apo E
Definition
-stimulate receptor-mediated endocytosis of HDL
- impt in uptake of LDL by liver
Term
Adipose tissue
Definition
- largest repository of E in body (TG)
- thermal insulation/temp reg
- protects organs
Term
Lipid Mobilization
Definition
- Release of FA from adipose TG
- increased cAMP = phosphorylation of lipases
- complete hydrolysis requires 3 lipases
- free glycerol not used in adipocyte
Term
Lipid storage
Definition
-increased insulin = increased LPL = FA enter cell=FA CoA -> TG(stored)
Term
Non-esterified FA's
Definition
- free FA's circulate as complexes
- ionic association w/albumin
- from mobilization of fat stores
- turnover is rapid
Term
Role of adipose tissue im lipid metabolism
Definition
- abs TG & chol from CM & VLDL thru LPL
- stores TAG
- adipocytes: lipoylysis, release FA ito blood
Term
Role of liver in lipid metabolism
Definition
- synth of bile acids, LP, new lipids from non-lipid precursors
- produces KB, continues to synth VLDL & HDL
Term
transport of LCFA Acetyl CoA into mito
Definition
- CPTI: obtained from diet or synth from lys & meth(Vit C)
- inner mito membrane=impermeable
- malonyl CoA inhibits
- each dbl bond present i USFA = 2 fewer ATP produced during oxidation
