Gluconeogenesis is the formation of glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors and occurs primarily in the liver and kidneys. Key substrates include lactate, glycerol, and glucogenic amino acids. The process is regulated by substrate availability and key enzymes such as pyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. Gluconeogenesis is critical for maintaining blood glucose levels during periods of fasting or low carbohydrate intake.
Glycogenolysis, process by which glycogen, the primary carbohydrate stored in the liver and muscle cells of animals, is broken down into glucose to provide immediate energy and to maintain blood glucose levels during fasting. These slides will provide you detail explanation of Glycogenolysis.
Pentose phosphate pathway is also called Hexose monophosphate pathway/ HMP shunt/ Phosphogluconate pathway.
It is an alternative route for the metabolism of glucose.
It is more complex pathway than glycolysis.
It is more anabolic in nature.
It takesplace in cytosol.
The tissues such as liver, adipose tissue, adrenal gland, erythrocytes,testes and lactating mammary gland are highly active in HMP shunt.
It concern with the biosynthesis of NADPH and pentoses.

Lipid metabolism entails the oxidation of fatty acids to either generate energy or synthesize new lipids from smaller constituent molecules. Lipid metabolism is associated with carbohydrate metabolism, as products of glucose (such as acetyl CoA) can be converted into lipids.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

11. Regulation of gluconeogenesis
Since glycolysis & gluconeogenesis share the same
pathway but in opposite direction, they may
regulated reciprocally.
The rate of gluconeogenesis depends on the
Availability of substrate i.e substrate level regulation.
Change in the activity of certain key enzymes, i.e.
enzymatic regulation .
12. Gluconeogenesis is stimulated by the flow of its
major substrate from peripheral tissues to liver.
Lactate, produced by muscle during exrecise
Glycerol released from adipose tissue
Amino acids are released from muscle
Thus, gluconeogenesis is stimulated during,
Fasting
Prolonged exercise
By high protein diet, and
Under stress conditions (due to increased epinephrine)
Substrate Level Regulation
13. Gluconeogenesis is regulated by four key enzymes
Pyruvate carboxylase
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase
Fructose-1,6 bisphoshatase
Glucose -6 phosphatase.
By the following mechanisms……
Induction or repression of enzymes. i.e change in the
rate of synthesis of enzymes.
The covalent modification by phosphorylation &
dephosphorylation
Allosteric activation or inhibition.
Enzymatic Regulation
14. Significance of gluconeogenesis
Gluconeogenesis meets the needs of the body for glucose
& maintains glucose homeostasis; when carbohydrate is not
available in sufficient amounts from the diet.
Some tissues such as the brain, RBCs, lens, cornea &
kidney medulla requires continuous supply of energy.
Liver glycogen provides glucose supply for 12-18 hrs in
absence of dietary intake of carbohydrate. As glycogen
store start depleting, gluconeogenesis takes place, which
ensure a continuous supply of glucose to the brain &
other tissues
It used to clear the products of the metabolism of other
tissues from the blood, e.g.,
Lactate, produced by muscle & RBCs
Glycerol produced by adipose tissues
Propionyl-CoA produced by oxidation of odd chain fatty acids and
carbon skeleton of some Aas.
