This podcast covers the details of the conversion of lactate produced during exercise to glucose in the liver and ultimately releasing it to the bloodstream.

This pocast covers the regulation of the Rate-limiting enzyme in fatty acid synthesis, Acetyl CoA Carboxylase allosterically, and by covalent modification.

This podcast covers the regulation of HMG CoA Reductase by hormones, covalent modification, cytoplasmic cholesterol, and statins.

This podcast defines metabolism and its two distinct components: anabolism and catabolism. The major compartments involved in both are also covered. If you like this podcast, feel free to donate to the podcast.

This podcast covers the distinct uses of glucose, fatty acids, and amino acids and their unique roles in metabolism.

This podcast covers the key role of the liver and adipose tissue in providing energy sources to the plasma during fasting. The liver is the provider of glucose and fatty acids, while adipose tissue provides fatty acids to the bloodstream.

While following a ketogenic diet, maintenance of plasma glucose is essential for several tissues. The amino acids derived from dietary proteins will provide the carbon skeletons for glucose synthesis by the liver, while the triacylglycerols from dietary fat will provide the energy for various tissues through Beta-oxidation of fatty acids.

This podcast covers the production of cAMP by activation of either the beta-adrenergic receptor or the glucagon receptor as well as the activation of the alpha1-adrenergic by epinephrine to produce IP3, DG and calcium.

This podcast covers the 3 stages of catabolism from the intestinal lumen to inside the cell. The energy output is mostly produced in the mitochondrial catabolic pathways. Similar content is available at: https://medbiochem.org/

This podcast covers the major pathways for catabolism of glucose and fatty acids, including the ATP output from their complete degradation to CO2. This biochemistry content may be useful to premedical and medical students. Similar content is available at: MEDBIOCHEM.ORG
