Things to know
• How metabolic oxidation of lipids releases large quantities of energy through production of acetyl-CoA, NADH, and FADH2
• How lipids represent an even more efficient way of storing chemical energy
![Page 3: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Introduction
• Triacylglycerols – main storage form of lipids – bond between fatty acid and other molecules can be hydrolysed using lipases enzyme
• Phosphoacylglycerols – membrane component – phospholipases
• Spider/snake venom – phospholipases- tissue damage and rbc lysis- prevent clot formation

Fatty acid oxidation
• Begin with activation of molecule• Thioester bond is formed between the
carboxyl group of coenzyme A (CoA-SH) – by acyl-CoA synthethase (require ATP)
• The activated form of fa – acyl-CoA
![Page 6: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Β-oxidation
•Fatty acids in the from of acyl-CoA molecules are broken down to generate acetyl-CoA, intermediate for TCA cycle
•Involve 4 steps
![Page 7: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
For f.a with even number of carbon, the product is acetyl coa.
So for a 18C f.a –•8 cycle•9 AC
C18 – 1ACC16 – 1ACC14 – 1ACC12 – 1ACC10 – 1ACC8 – 1ACC6 – 1ACC4 – 1ACC2 – 1AC
![Page 8: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
B oxidation products
TCA Cycle
Final products
17 FADH2 + 35 NADH + 9 GTP = 148 ATP PER ONE
![Page 9: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Comparison
• One mole of glucose (6C) – Produce 36/38 ATP
• 3mole of glucose (18C) – 108ATP/114ATP
• One mole of f.a – 18C – Produce already 149 ATP!
![Page 10: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
They don’t need water• Metabolic water is
produced during oxidation of f.a
• Camel – lipid stored in humps
• Kangaroo rats – diets of seed- rich lipid but no water – can live indefinitely without having to drink
![Page 11: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Ketone bodies
•Are produced when excess of acetyl CoA occur arises from B-oxidation
•Occur when not enough OAA is available to enter TCA
•Happen when organisms has high intake of lipid and low intake of carb in diets
•Brain can metabolize ketone bodies (20% requirements)
![Page 12: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Ketone bodies• Acetone can be detected in breath – ketosis
• Ketone bodies acidic – their presence overwhelm the buffering capacity
• Acetoacetate can be converted to acetyl-CoA to enter TCA
• Ketonaemia- rise of ketone bodies in blood above normal level
• Ketonuria – when blood level of ketone bodies rises above renal threshold, they are excreted in urine
• Ketosis – accumulation of abnormal amount of ketone bodies in tissues and body fluid
![Page 14: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Causes
1. starvation- simples form of ketosis occurs – due to depletion of carb reserve, coupled with mobilization of FFA and oxidation to produce energy
2. In pathologic states:in DM – clinical and experimentalin some types of alkalosis – ketosis may occurpregancy toxaemia in sheep and lactating cattle
3. Non pathological states- high fat feeding and severe exercise in the postabsorbtive state
![Page 15: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Ketosis
• Ketosis can be abolished by increasing the metabolism of carb in diet
• DM- give insulin• Ketogenic substances – ALL FFA• 40% of aa ketogenic• Antiketogenic – all carb, insulin, glucogenic aa,
glycerol
![Page 16: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
CHOLESTEROL
![Page 17: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Cholesterol
• Membrane structure• Precursor for
steroid hormones and bile acids
![Page 18: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Biosynthesis of cholesterol• Cholesterol is synthesized
in many tissues• Mainly in liver and
intestine• Acetyl CoA is the
precursor• More than half is
synthesized in body• Remainder from diet
![Page 19: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
![Page 20: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
![Page 21: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Cholesterol synthesis
![Page 22: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Regulation of cholesterol synthesis• Is important to prevent accumulation and abnormal
deposition of cholesterol in the body• Is primarily regulated by the enzyme HMG-CoA
reductase• HMG-CoA reductase is inhibited by cholesterol itself• Fasting inhibit the enzyme – and activate the HMG-
CoA lyase to form ketone bodies• The feeding of cholesterol reduces the hepatic
biosynthesis of cholesterol• Cholesterol drugs: atorvastatin – inhibit HMG-Coa
Reductase
![Page 23: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Hormonal effect
• Insulin – increase HMG-CoA reductase actvity• Glucagon and glucocorticoid – decrease the
enz activity• Thyroid hormones – stimulate the hormone
activity
![Page 24: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Other factors influence cholesterol level in blood
• Dietary fats – diet in saturated fat increase cholesterol level
• Dietary cholesterol• Dietary carbohydrates• Hereditity• Blood groups – higher in A and AB than O and B• Dietary fibers- cause excretion of cholesterol and bile
acids in feces – reduce serum cholesterol• Exercise – lower cholesterol and increase HDL• Hypolipidaemic drug – block formation of cholesterol
![Page 25: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Fate of cholesterol
• Conversion to bile acids - excreted• Conversion to neutral sterols – excreted• Conversion 7-dehydrocholesterol – in skin, UV
light will convert it to Vit D• Formation of adrenocorticol hormones• Formation of androgens, estrogens,
progesterone
![Page 26: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Lipid transport and storage• Fats from diets and lipids synthesized must be
transported to tissues and organ – utilize and store• They are carried in blood plasma as plasma
lipoproteins (macromolecular complexes of specific apolipoprotein)
• Diff combination produce diff densities, chylomicrons <VLDL<LDL<HDL
• Lipoproteins transport lipid from intestines as chylomicrons and from liver as VLDL to most tissues for oxidation and adipose tissuefor storage
• Lipid is mobilized from tissue as free f.a
![Page 27: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Types of apoproteins
• HDL – apo-A-I and apo-A-II• LDL and LDL– apo-B100• Chylomicrons – apoB48
![Page 28: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Functions of apoprotein
• Make the lipoprotein molecules water miscible (hydrophilic)
• May acts as activator or inhibitor of specific enzymes. E.g
Apo-A-I and Apo-A-II act as LCAT activator apo-C-I and C-II act as activator of lipoprotein
lipase apo-C-III- inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase apo-B-100 and apo-E- bind with specific
receptor on hepatic cells- lead to hepatic uptake
![Page 29: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Synthesize of chylomicrons and VLDL
• CM – in intestinal mucosal cells
• VLDL – in liver• LDL- LDL is formed by
degradation of VLDL (by losing some if its TG and apo)– Rich in cholesterol and
cholesterol esters (bad cholesterol) – transport cholesterol to extrahepatic tissues
– Cholesterol delivered by LDL to cells inhibit HMG-CoA reductase – inhibit cholesterol synthesize
![Page 30: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Major fx
1. Chylomicrons• Carrier of exogenous TG. Transport mainly TG, PL, cholesterol ester and fat
soluble vit from intestinal to liver and adipose tissues. Carrier for dietary lipids
2. VLDL • Carrier of endogenous TG – mainly transports TG synthesized in hepatic
cells from the liver to extrahepatic tissues for storage
3. LDL• Transport and delivers cholesterol to extrahepatic tissues• Regulate cholesterol synthesis in extrahepatic tissues – cholesterol
delivered by LDL to cells inhibit HMG-CoA reductase – rate limiting enzyme for cholesterol synthesis
![Page 31: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Fate of LDL
• LDL are taken into cell by endocytosis through receptor recognition
• The presence of LDL receptor on the cell surface is important for uptake of LDL
• LDL is hydrolysed to aa, cholesterol and fa
• Free cholesterol – membrane component and inhibit the production of HMG-CoA reductase- suppressed synthesis of cholesterol – and also inhibit the synthesis of receptors – reduce intake of LDL. LDL level in blood increase – deposit as plaques
![Page 32: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Fate of LDL
• Cholesterol not needed for membrane can be stored as fatty acid ester – catalyzed by acyl-CoA : cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT)
• The presence of free cholesterol increases the enzymatic activity of ACAT
![Page 33: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Catabolism
• Lipoprotein lipases hydrolyzes TG from chylomicron to produce free fa and glycerol
• The released fa are taken by cells• Lipoprotein lipases activity declines in
adipocytes during starvation - reduce uptake of lipid by adipose tissue
• Starvation enhances Lipoprotein lipases activity in cardiac and muscle – to oxidize more fa
![Page 34: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
HDL• Is synthesized in liver cells
and in intestinal mucosa cells. Apo-A , Apo-E and Apo-C as the carrier
• Strip off the cellular cholesterol from peripheral cells and muscles of arteries
• Activates the LCAT- esterification of cholesterol to HDL
• Transported to liver- catabolism
![Page 35: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
HDL• Provide Apo-C and Apo-E to
VLVL and chylomicrons to be acted upon lipoprotein lipase
• Stimulate synthesis of prostacylin synthesis by endothelial cells – inhibits platelet aggregation and prevent thrombus formation
• Helps in removal macrophages from arterial wall
![Page 36: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Bile acids• Bile helps in digestion and absorption of lipids
• Stored in gallbladder
• Bile acids -Steroid acids found in bileFx
• Lowering surface tension – emulsification of fats
• Accelerate the action of pancreatic lipase
• Form micelles with fa-helps absorption
• Aid in absorption of fat soluble vit
![Page 37: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Bile acids• Keep cholesterol in solution• In GB, cholesterol is solubilized and
held in micelles with the help of conjugated bile salts and phospholipids
• Bile salts content decreased – imbalance of micelles- cholesterol leak out – crystallize and form gall stones
• Gall stones – formed due to precipitation of cholesterol
![Page 38: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Atherosclerosis• Excess LDLs invade tissues of the artery and become modified. The modified molecule stimulate the production of adhesion molecules, sticking out into the blood stream. Attract monocytes and T cells to the site.
• Monocytes mature into active macrophages and produce many inflammatory molecules to digest LDL
• Fat filled macrophages (foam cells) – earliest form of atherosclerotic plaque
![Page 39: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Atherosclerosis• Inflammatory molecules
promote growth of plaque and form a fibrous cap over the lipid core. The fibrous cap seal off the fatty core from the blood
• Foam cells weaken the cap by secreting digesting matrix molecules. If the weakened cap ruptures, tissue factors display on the foam cells will interact with clot promoting element in the blood causing a clot (thrombus)
![Page 40: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
• Familial cholesteralaemia – defective gene that code for receptor – develop atherosclerosis earlier
![Page 41: METABOLISM OF LIPIDS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56813ad1550346895da2fd32/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
