22. Oedema in kwashiorkor
Traditionally considered as direct result of low
albumin and associated with low protein intake
with normal calorie intake
Inflammation induced by infection is currently
regarded responsible for the oedema via 3
mechanism:
Transcapillary loss of albumin due to increase
vascular permeability
Increased albumin catabolism
Decreased albumin synthesis

66. Glycemic Load
66
The glycemic load (GL) of food is a number that
estimates how much the food will raise a person's blood
glucose level after eating it. One unit of glycemic load
approximates the effect of consuming one gram of
glucose.[1] Glycemic load accounts for how much
carbohydrate is in the food and how much each gram of
carbohydrate in the food raises blood glucose levels.
Glycemic load is based on the glycemic index (GI).
Glycemic load is defined as the grams of available
carbohydrate in the food x the food's GI / 100
67. Glycemic Load
67
Glycemic load estimates the impact of carbohydrate
consumption using the glycemic index while taking into account
the amount of carbohydrate that is consumed. GL is a GI-
weighted measure of carbohydrate content. For instance,
watermelon has a high GI, but a typical serving of watermelon
does not contain much carbohydrate, so the glycemic effect of
eating it (and therefore its GL) is low. Whereas glycemic index is
defined for each type of food, glycemic load can be calculated
for any size serving of a food, an entire meal, or an entire day's
meals.
68. Glycemic Load
68
GL greater than 20 = high,
GL of 11-19 = medium,
GL of 10 or less = low.
Foods that have a low GL in a typical
serving size almost always have a low GI.
Foods with an intermediate or high GL in a
typical serving size range from a very low to
very high GI.
89. Play a role in blood cholesterol levels. These substances
occur when polyunsaturated oils are altered through
hydrogenation, a process used to harden liquid vegetable oils
into solid foods like margarine and shortening.
One recent study found that trans-monounsaturated fatty
acids raise LDL cholesterol levels, behaving much like
saturated fats.
Simultaneously, the trans-fatty acids reduced HDL
cholesterol readings. Much more research on this subject is
necessary, as studies have not reached consistent and
conclusive findings.
89
109. Protein metabolism
Protein is absorbed in form of amino acid
Amino acid especially important to build new tissue
or to replace the old one.
Protein from diet and tissue catabolism form amino
acid pool
Amino acid from this pool will be burnt as energy in
state of limit source of energy
Inter-conversion amongst amino acid and catabolic
metabolite from CH and fat takes place through the
process of transamination, deamination, and
amination
110. Protein metabolism
Leucine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, and tyrosine
are called ketogenic amino acids since they are
converted to ketone bodies; acetoacetic acid
Threonine and valine (by irreversible reaction)
and other amino acids (by reversible reaction)
are glucogenic or gluconeogenic
113. Transaminase enzymes (aminotransferases) catalyze
the reversible transfer of an amino group between two
a-keto acids.

115. Transaminase Roles
Transaminases equilibrate amino groups among
available a-keto acids.
This permits synthesis of non-essential amino acids,
using amino groups from other amino acids & carbon
skeletons synthesized in a cell. Thus a balance of
different amino acids is maintained, as proteins of varied
amino acid contents are synthesized.
Although the amino N of one amino acid can be used
to synthesize another amino acid, N must be obtained
in the diet as amino acids (proteins).
116. Essential Amino Acids
Essential amino acids must be consumed in the diet.
Mammalian cells lack enzymes to synthesize their
carbon skeletons (a-keto acids). These include:
Isoleucine, leucine, & valine
Lysine
Threonine
Tryptophan
Phenylalanine (Tyr can be made from Phe.)
Methionine (Cys can be made from Met.)
Histidine (Essential for infants.)
117. The prosthetic group of Transaminase is
pyridoxal phosphate (PLP), a derivative of
vitamin B6.

facilitate catalysis. Lysine extracts H+, promoting tautomerization,

reverses, to complete the reaction.

122. Chime Exercise
Each student should pair up with a neighboring student
and each should display as recommended of one of the
following:
Transaminase with PLP in Schiff base linkage to the
active site lysine residue.
Transaminase in the PMP form, with glutarate, an
analog of a-ketoglutarate, at the active site.
Students should then show and explain the structure
displayed by them to the neighboring team.
123. Deamination of Amino Acids
In addition to equilibrating amino groups among
available a-keto acids, transaminases function to funnel
amino groups from excess dietary amino acids to those
amino acids (e.g., glutamate) that can be deaminated.
Carbon skeletons of deaminated amino acids can be
catabolized for energy, or used to synthesize glucose or
fatty acids for energy storage.
Only a few amino acids are deaminated directly.
124. Glutamate Dehydrogenase catalyzes a major reaction that effects net
removal of N from the amino acid pool.
It is one of the few enzymes that can use NAD+ or NADP+ as e
acceptor. Oxidation at the a-carbon is followed by hydrolysis, releasing
NH4

127. Most terrestrial land animals convert excess nitrogen to
urea, prior to excreting it. Urea is less toxic than ammonia.
The Urea Cycle occurs mainly in liver.
The 2 nitrogen atoms of urea enter the Urea Cycle as NH3
(produced mainly via Glutamate Dehydrogenase) and as
amino N of aspartate.
The NH3 and HCO3
(carbonyl C) that will be part of urea
are incorporated first into carbamoyl phosphate.

130. Carbamoyl Phosphate Synthase is the committed step of
the Urea Cycle, and is subject to regulation.
Carbamoyl Phosphate Synthase is allosterically activated
by N-acetylglutamate. This derivative of glutamate is
synthesized when cellular [glutamate] is high, signaling
excess of free amino acids due to protein breakdown or
dietary intake.

Oxaloacetate is converted to aspartate via transamination (e.g., from
glutamate). Aspartate then reenters Urea Cycle, carrying an amino group
derived from another amino acid.

134. Hyperammonemia Disease
Hereditary deficiency of any of the Urea Cycle
enzymes leads to hyperammonemia - elevated
[ammonia] in blood.
Total lack of any Urea Cycle enzyme is lethal.
Elevated ammonia is toxic, especially to the brain. If
not treated immediately after birth, severe mental
retardation results.
Information about such genetic diseases may be found
in the OMIM (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man)
web site.
135. Postulated mechanisms for toxicity of high [ammonia]:
1. High [NH3] would drive Glutamine Synthase:
glutamate + ATP + NH3 glutamine + ADP + Pi
This would deplete glutamate – a neurotransmitter & precursor for
synthesis of the neurotransmitter GABA.
2. Depletion of glutamate & high ammonia level would drive
Glutamate Dehydrogenase reaction to reverse:
glutamate + NAD(P)+ a-ketoglutarate +
NAD(P)H + NH4
+
The resulting depletion of a-ketoglutarate, an essential Krebs Cycle
intermediate, could impair energy metabolism in the brain.
136. Hyperammonemia Disease
Treatment of deficiency of Urea Cycle enzymes
(depends on which enzyme is deficient):
limiting protein intake to the amount barely
adequate to supply amino acids for growth, while
adding to the diet the a-keto acid analogs of
essential amino acids.
Liver transplantation has also been used, since
liver is the organ that carries out Urea Cycle.
140. Interrelation amongst Metabolism

those substances are distinct , they will
eventually enters a shared process called

144. The role enzymes in metabolism
It consists of a protein part synthesized in body
(apoenzyme).
To activate apoenzyme we need coenzyme (a non-
protein molecule)
The coenzyme initially inactive and activated by vitamin
B complex
The bond between apoenzyme and coenzyme is called
holoenzyme.
Some holoenzymes need minerals to work effectively.
145. The role enzymes in metabolism
As every component of the system needed
simultaneously in sufficient amount, that any single
deficiency of those nutrients would interfere with
the entire system.
Despite one single vitamin only as a component of
one coenzyme, the coenzyme might participate in
other enzymes.
Therefore, a deficiency in one vitamin could
negatively affect some metabolic pathways
Refer to the reference handout for more detail
146. The role of hormones
Play important roles in coordinating lots of
metabolic process.
These hormones are created to meet the normal
condition of human being, in both anabolic and
catabolic states.
For instances : Insulin is an anabolic hormone, while
cortisol is a catabolic
Growth hormone has a mixed properties; to
synthesize protein by catabolizing Ch and fat
