Physiological Aspects in Relation with Obesity discusses various topics related to obesity including:
- Meda dhatu, the physiological tissue responsible for fat storage and metabolism.
- Hunger and appetite regulation controlled by the hypothalamus and various hormones.
- An overview of energy metabolism including glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and the citric acid cycle.
- Components of energy expenditure including basal metabolic rate, the thermic effect of food, and physical activity.
The document discusses the pancreas, insulin, glucagon, and diabetes mellitus. The pancreas has both digestive and endocrine functions. Its islets of Langerhans secrete insulin and glucagon directly into the bloodstream. Insulin regulates carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism, promoting storage of glucose and fatty acids. Glucagon increases blood glucose levels through glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Diabetes mellitus occurs when insulin secretion is impaired (type 1) or tissues are resistant to insulin (type 2), leading to high blood glucose levels and various complications if not controlled.
The document summarizes the functions of the pancreas and pancreatic hormones. The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine and regulates blood sugar levels by secreting the hormones insulin and glucagon. Insulin promotes glucose uptake and storage, while glucagon promotes glucose release from stores. A lack of insulin leads to diabetes mellitus, characterized by high blood sugar and metabolic dysregulation. The document provides details on the metabolic effects of insulin and glucagon on carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism.
1. The document discusses the integration of body fuel metabolism, including the interconnection of metabolic pathways, the metabolic profile of different organs, and how fuel metabolism changes during fed and fasted states.
2. Key points covered include the central roles of glucose, fatty acids, and ketone bodies as fuels, as well as intermediates like acetyl-CoA and pyruvate that link different pathways.
3. The metabolic profiles of organs like the brain, muscle, adipose tissue, liver, and kidney are described in terms of their preferred fuels and metabolic functions.
4. The transitions between post-absorptive, fasting, and refed states are summarized, highlighting the roles of insulin and
Somatostatin is a polypeptide hormone produced in the hypothalamus and pancreas that inhibits the secretion of several other hormones. It acts as a neurotransmitter in the nervous system and regulates processes in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. Synthetic substitutes like octreotide and lanreotide are used to treat excess hormone secretion and gastrointestinal diseases by mimicking somatostatin. Increased somatostatin levels can result from rare tumors and cause issues like diabetes and gallstones by over-suppressing hormone secretion. Decreased levels can lead to problems from excessive growth hormone and thyroid stimulating hormone secretion.
The document discusses hormone regulation and action. It summarizes that the hypothalamus controls the anterior and posterior pituitary glands. The anterior pituitary releases hormones that control other endocrine glands like the thyroid. Growth hormone is released from the anterior pituitary and is essential for growth. The thyroid gland releases T3 and T4, which regulate metabolism. Insulin and glucagon regulate blood glucose levels. Testosterone and estrogen are the primary sex hormones. Hormones mobilize fuels like glucose and fatty acids during exercise depending on intensity and duration.
The pancreas secretes two important hormones, insulin and glucagon, which play crucial roles in regulating glucose, lipid, and protein metabolism. Insulin promotes the storage and use of glucose by stimulating its uptake into cells and its conversion to glycogen or fat. It also inhibits gluconeogenesis and fat breakdown. A lack of insulin has the opposite effects, increasing gluconeogenesis and fat breakdown for energy.
This document summarizes the metabolic roles of major organs including the liver, muscle, adipose tissue, and brain. It also discusses the hormonal regulators of fuel metabolism including insulin, glucagon, and catecholamines. Insulin promotes anabolic processes like glycogen, lipid, and protein synthesis. Glucagon and catecholamines have opposing catabolic effects and stimulate glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis and lipolysis. Together these hormones maintain blood glucose levels and allow fuels to be distributed and used by different tissues.
Growth hormone is synthesized by cells in the anterior pituitary gland and regulates growth, metabolism, and cell reproduction. It acts through somatomedins like insulin-like growth factor 1 to promote growth of bones and muscles. Growth hormone levels normally decrease with age but some people improperly use synthetic growth hormone in hopes of reversing aging or enhancing athletic performance, despite such uses not being approved by the FDA and having potential health risks. The presentation provided information on the synthesis, regulation, actions, and appropriate medical uses of growth hormone.

Metabolic abnormalities in obesity are caused by an imbalance between energy intake and expenditure over time. There are three main components of total energy expenditure - resting energy expenditure, the energy expended during physical activity, and the thermic effect of food. In obesity, resting energy expenditure is increased due to more adipose tissue, but the thermic effect of food is reduced. Adipose tissue stores triglycerides and also functions as an endocrine organ secreting hormones that influence metabolism. Dysregulation of lipid metabolism and adipokine secretion in obesity can lead to medical complications.
1. The document discusses the concepts of aahara, parinama and bhaava in Ayurveda. Aahara refers to food consumed, parinama refers to the digestion and metabolism of food, and bhaava refers to the factors in the body responsible.
2. It identifies the six main bhaavas or factors responsible for parinama - ushma, vayu, kleda, sneha, kala and samayoga. Their specific roles in digestion are described.
3. The process of digestion and the roles of the digestive organs like the mouth, stomach, small intestine and their secretions are summarized.
The document discusses appetite regulation and the hormones involved. It begins by defining appetite and hunger, and how they are regulated by the hypothalamus and hormones. It then describes hormones like ghrelin, leptin, PYY, and CCK that are involved in appetite suppression or stimulation. The hypothalamus contains neuronal pathways that sense these hormones and regulate energy intake and expenditure. Neuropeptides in these pathways like NPY, AgRP, and MCH stimulate appetite while others like POMC suppress it. In summary, a complex interplay between the brain, digestive system, and fat tissue controls appetite through hormonal signals.
This document discusses appetite in health and diseases. In health, appetite is regulated by physical activity, growth, gender factors, sleep, weather, aging and types of food. The hypothalamus and gut-brain axis play key roles in homeostatic and reward-based appetite control. In diseases, changes in appetite can occur in obesity, neuropsychiatric conditions, endocrine/metabolic diseases, infections, lung/kidney diseases, and cachexia. Obesity is defined as excess body fat and can be caused by single-gene mutations affecting appetite regulators like MC4R and leptin.
This document summarizes a study that investigated the effects of food matrix on circulating levels of the appetite-regulating hormone acylated ghrelin. The study involved two randomized crossover trials that compared isoenergetic meals with different food matrices. Trial A compared almond extracts with different protein coatings, while Trial B compared raw almonds and almond oil. Blood samples were taken before and after the meals to measure acylated ghrelin and lipid levels. The results found no significant difference in post-prandial acylated ghrelin levels between the food matrices tested. However, triglyceride levels were significantly different after almond products. The study concluded that food matrix did not significantly impact acylated

Definition of weight loss:
Clinically important weight loss is defined as the loss of 10 pounds (4.5 kg) or >5% of one’s body weight over a period of 6–12 months.
Weight loss can be divided into 2 categories: involuntary or voluntary.
-1 Involuntary weight loss is a manifestation of cachexia associated with many disease states.
2- Voluntary weight loss, in the form of healthy dieting, is common among men and women. However, signifcant voluntary weight loss can herald a psychiatric illness such as an eating disorder, particularly among women.
K E Y T E R M S:
Anorexia Loss of the desire to eat.
Anorexia nervosa4 Intense fear of gaining weight and refusal to maintain weight at or above a minimally appropriate weight for height and age.
Bulimia nervosa4 Recurrent episodes of binge eating followed by recurrent compensatory behavior to prevent weight gain (ie, laxative abuse and self-induced vomiting).
Cachexia General muscle and/or fat wasting with malnutrition usually associated with chronic disease.
Involuntary weight loss The unintended loss of weight; sometimes not reported by the patient and only noted upon chart review.
Malnutrition Poor nutrition due to inadequate or unbalanced intake of nutrients or their impaired utilization.
Voluntary weight loss The conscious effort to lose weight; frequently not a complaint among those with eating disorders.
This document provides an overview of the endocrine system. It describes that the endocrine system uses hormones to regulate body functions more slowly than the nervous system. The key endocrine glands discussed are the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, adrenal glands, pancreas, ovaries and testes. For each gland, the document outlines the hormones produced, their actions in the body, and how their secretion is controlled by feedback mechanisms in the endocrine and nervous systems.
Obesity is rising globally despite increased knowledge about diet and exercise. Risks include heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and some cancers. Factors causing obesity include an evolutionary tendency to efficiently store calories combined with current low activity, high calorie diets. Appetite is regulated by hormones that signal fullness or hunger. Gut hormones like GLP-1 and leptin help regulate food intake while ghrelin stimulates appetite. Adipose tissue also secretes hormones that impact metabolism.
This document discusses several topics related to energy balance and homeostasis in the human body:
1. It outlines the caloric and energy content of macronutrients like carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Regions of the hypothalamus that regulate hunger and satiety are also described.
2. Neural and hormonal factors that control food intake in the short and long-term are explained, including the roles of ghrelin, leptin, CCK, and other signals.
3. Causes and treatment strategies for obesity are reviewed, highlighting genetic and neuroendocrine factors. The document also covers inanition, starvation, and the body's response to lack of food intake.
This document provides information about a lecture on digestive physiology at Mordov State University's Medical Institute. The 3-sentence summary is:
The lecture covers the role of the pancreas and its enzymes in digestion, the composition and function of pancreatic juice, and the regulation of pancreatic secretion. It also discusses the liver's role in digestion through bile production and the components and functions of bile. Finally, it examines the phases of pancreatic secretion including brain, gastric, and intestinal phases under nervous and hormonal influences.
Hormones are signaling molecules produced by endocrine glands that are transported via bloodstream to target distant organs and regulate physiology. They are classified as either proteinaceous/peptide hormones or non-proteinaceous/steroid hormones. Peptide hormones include insulin, glucagon, ACTH, ADH, oxytocin, and prolactin. Insulin regulates carbohydrate and fat metabolism, while glucagon raises blood glucose levels. Deficiencies or excesses of these hormones can lead to hypoglycemia or diabetes.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

7. HUNGER AND SATIETY
Hunger and satiety are sensations.
Hunger is the painful sensation caused by lack of food that
initiates food-seeking behaviour
Satiety is the absence of hunger, satiation: is the feeling of
satisfaction and fullness that occurs during a meal and leads to
stop eating. Satiation determines how much food is consumed
during a meal. satisfaction that occurs after a meal and inhibits
eating until the next meal. Satiety determines how much time
passes between meals.
Appetite is another sensation experienced with eating , it is an
integrated response to the sight, smell, thought, or taste of
food that initiates or delays eating.
8. PHYSIOLOGY OF APPETITE AND HUNGER
REGULATION OF FOOD INTAKE
Physiological influences of hunger
Empty stomach, Gastric contractions, Absence of nutrients in small intestine GI, Hormones such
as Ghrelin, Leptin, Cholecystokinin, Endorphins, insulin, etc .
Sensory influences on appetite
Thought, sight,colour smell, sound, taste of food.
Cognitive influences on appetite
Presence of others, social stimulation, Favorite foods, foods with special meanings Time of day,
Abundance of available food
9. NEURAL CENTER FOR
REGULATION OF FOOD INTAKE
Feeding center - lateral nucleus of the hypothalamic
Satiety center - Ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus.
Controlling center - Arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus
Limbic cortex
Frontal cortex
Feeding center inhibited by satiety center and arcuate nucleus controls satiety
center by secreting stimulatory as well as inhibitory substance , are of
two type
1.Orexigenic(Neuropeptide Y ,Orexin A, B) increasing the food intake
2.Anorexigenic (MCH,CART,AGRP) decreasing food intake
10. CHEMICAL MEDIATORS WHICH
CONTROL FOOD INTAKE
INTRA HYPOTHALAMIC EXTRA HYPOTHALMIC
OREXIGENIC ANOREXIGENI

GHRELIN
(Stomach)
LEPTIN (Adipose )
ACTH (Ant .Pituitary)
CORTISOL,
CATACHOLMINES(Adrenal)
GRP CCK,MOTILIN (Gut)
Glucagon, GLP -1 (Pancreas)
They released in the blood and through median eminence (which
remain outside the blood brain barrier )reach Arcuate nucleus and
control the food intake
11. MECHANISM OF REGULATION OF
FOOD INTAKE
Glucostatic mechanism
Lipostatic mechanism
Gut- Peptide & Hormonal mechanism
Thermostatic mechanism.
12. GLUCOSTATIC MECHANISM
Cells of satiety center function as glucostats or glucose
receptors, which are stimulated by increased blood
glucose level. While taking food, blood glucose level
increases. Slowly the glucostats are stimulated &satiety
center is activated & inhibits the feeding center and stops
the food intake.
However, glucostats do not give response to very high
level of glucose in blood (hyperglycemia).So the satiety
center does not inhibit the feeding center, so the frequency
of food intake increases (polyphagia).
13. LIPOSTATIC MECHANISM
Leptin is a peptide secreted by adipocytes .When the volume of adipose tissues
increases, adipocytes secrete and release a large quantity of leptin into the
blood. In hypothalamus, leptin inhibits the feeding center, resulting in loss of
appetite and stoppage of food intake.
Mode of action of leptin
Leptin acts through some specific neuropeptides in hypothalamus, such as:
Neuropeptide Y: It is secreted in small intestine, medulla and hypothalamus.
Normally, this peptide stimulates the food intake. But, leptin inhibits
neuropeptide Y, leading to stoppage of food intake.
Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC): It is secreted from anterior pituitary. It is also
secreted from hypothalamus, lungs, GI tract and placenta. Normally, it inhibits
food intake. Leptin stimulates the secretion of POMC.
Leptin receptor -Many leptin receptors are identified. However, leptin acts via
‘LepRb’, which is the only active receptor present in many nuclei of
hypothalamus.
14. GUT - PEPTIDE MECHANISM
Peptides regulate the food intake either by stimulating or
inhibiting the feeding center, directly or indirectly
Ghrelin is secreted in stomach during fasting. It directly stimulates
the feeding center and increases the appetite and food intake.
Besides ghrelin, several other peptides are involved in the
regulation of food intake.
Peptides, which increase the food intake:
a. Ghrelin b. Neuropeptide Y.
Peptides, which decrease the food intake:
a. Leptin b. Peptide YY.
15. HORMONAL MECHANISM
Endocrine hormones and GI hormones inhibit the food
intake by acting through hypothalamus.
Hormones which stimulate the food intake Ghrelin,
NeuropeptideY, galanin ,Dynomorphin, Norepinephrine,B-
endorphin
Hormones which inhibit the food intake: Somatostatin,
Oxytocin ,Glucagon, Pancreatic polypeptide,
Cholecystokinin.
16. THERMOSTATIC MECHANISM
Food intake is inversely proportional to body
temperature. So in fever, the food intake is decreased.
Exact mechanism of this fact is not known. It is suggested
that the preoptic thermoreceptors may act via feeding center.
The cytokines are also suggested to play a role in decreasing
the appetite during fever.
When we are fasting our temperature decreases slightly
this is sensed by posterior hypothalamus which stimulate
lateral hypothalamus & food intake increase

18. OVERVIEW OF ENERGY METABOLISM
Stage 1
Break down of complex
molecule into simple ones
Stage 2
Formation of Acetyl coenzyme A
Stage 3
Acetyl coenzyme A enter into
kerb cycle undergo oxidation &
leads to the production of
energy along with co2 and H20
21. GLYCOLYSIS -the catabolism of carbohydrates, as glucose and glycogen, by
enzymes, with the release of energy and the production of lactic or pyruvic acid.
GLYCOGENOLYSIS- process by which glycogen, the primary carbohydrate
stored in the liver and muscle cells , is broken down into glucose to provide
immediate energy and to maintain blood glucose levels during fasting.
GLYCOGENISIS -the synthesis of glycogen from glucose that occurs chiefly in
the liver and skeletal muscle
GLUCONEOGENESIS - is a metabolic pathway that results in the generation
of glucose From breakdown of proteins, Lipids such as triglycerides
,glycerol,& from other substrates like pyruvate etc.
LINK REACTION -Pyruvate is decarboxylated: CO2 is removed It is added
to CoA to form Acetyl CoA, takes place only inside the mitochondrial matrix.
22. ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN- The electron transport chain is a
series of electron transporters embedded in the inner mitochondrial
membrane that shuttles electrons from NADH and FADH2 to molecular
oxygen. In the process, protons are pumped from the mitochondrial
matrix to the inter membrane space, and oxygen is reduced to form water.
THE CITRIC ACID CYCLE /TCA CYCLE / KREBS CYCLE – is a
series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to release
stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from
carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, into adenosine triphosphate and carbon
dioxide
The Cori cycle in which lactate produced by anaerobic glycolysis in the
muscles moves to the liver and is converted to glucose.
23. ENERGY EXPENDITURE
Components Of Energy Expenditure
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR):
The Thermic Effect Of Food (TEF)
Physical Activity:
24. BASAL METABOLIC RATE (BMR)
Basal or resting metabolic rate (BMR or RMR) is the amount of
energy per minute the body uses to maintain a quiet resting state.
This is approximately 1 Cal per minute. Over the course of the day
(and night), a person will expend a substantial amount of calories
just to maintain the body (1440 minutes in a day x 1 Cal/min = 1440
Cal per day).
Approximately 60% to 75% of the energy used every day is needed
to maintain the essential body functions that sustain life. These
functions include nervous system activity, breathing, heart
function, maintenance of body temperature (thermoregulation),
and hormone activity.
25. FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE
BASAL METABOLIC RATE
Age: metabolism slows with age (2% to 3% per decade after 30 years of
age), primarily due to a loss in muscle tissue due to inactivity, but also
due to hormonal and neurological changes.
Gender: generally, men have a faster metabolism than women because
they tend to be larger and have more muscle tissue.
Body size: larger adult bodies have more metabolically active tissue,
which leads to a higher BMR/RMR.
Body composition: muscle tissue uses more calories than fat, even at rest.
Genetic predisposition: metabolic rate may be partly determined by genes.
26. (contd).
Growth: Infants and children have a higher BMR/RMR
related to the energy needs of growth and maintenance of
body temperature.
Hormonal and nervous controls: Hormonal imbalances can
influence how quickly or how slowly the body burns calories.
Environmental temperature: If temperature is very low or
very high, the body has to work harder to maintain a normal
temperature; this increases the BMR/RMR.
Infection or illness: BMR/RMR increases if the body has to
build new tissue or create an immune response to fight
infection.
27. Factors that influence basal
metabolic rate contd....
Crash dieting, Starving, or Fasting: Eating too few calories
encourages the body to conserve through a potentially significant
decrease in BMR/RMR. There can also be a loss of lean muscle
tissue, which further contributes to reducing BMR/RMR.
Physical activity: Hard-working muscles require extra energy
during activity. Regular exercise increases muscle mass, which
increases energy consumption, even at rest.
Stimulants: Use of stimulants (e.g., caffeine) increases energy
expenditure at rest. However, this is not a healthy way to lose
weight.
28. THE THERMIC EFFECT OF FOOD
(TEF)
Thermic effect of food (TEF) is the energy required to
process the food we eat.
Approximately 10% of the calories in a meal are used to
digest, metabolize, and store the food just eaten.
The energy expenditure is directly related to the size of the
meal and the food composition (i.e., the amount of protein,
fat, and carbohydrate).
Carbohydrates: 5 to 15% of the energy consumed
Protein: 20 to 35%
Fats: at most 5 to 15%
29. PHYSICAL ACTIVITY:
Physical activity is defined as any bodily movement produced by
skeletal muscles that results in energy expenditure.
The US Dept of Health and Human Services and guidelines which
include:
1) 30 minutes of moderately intense daily physical activity may be
effective in cardiovascular risk reduction,
2) 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous daily physical activity may be
effective in the prevention of weight gain,
3) 60-90 minutes of moderate daily physical activity may be effective
in sustaining weight loss
30. High intensity exercise reduces ghrelin levels and transient rises in
GLP-1 blood levels in both obese and normal weight individuals reduce
energy intake in obese and normal weight subjects.
High intensity exercise increase gut peptide hormones (cholecystokinin,
amylin,) exert their anorexigenic effects in hypothalamus.
The body likewise uses carbohydrate and glycogen stores as its primary fuel
source during the initial 20 minutes. After 20 minutes of constant movement,
the body starts to burn body fat to power the muscles and body. This is known
as "aerobic fat-burning."
Aerobic exercise increases your endurance and cardiac health
Anaerobic exercise will not only help you burn fat but also help you gain lean
muscle mass and that increase ur RMR there by prevent regaining of weight .
31. CLASSIFICATION OF LIPIDS
Dietary fats are classified into two types:
1. Saturated fats 2. Unsaturated fats
SATURATED FATS- The fatty acids having maximum amount of hydrogen
ions without any double bonds between carbon atoms are called saturated
fatty acids.
Unsaturated fats are classified into three types:
1. Monounsaturated fats -
2. Polyunsaturated fats
3. Trans fats.
MONOUNSATURATED FATS- Unsaturated fats which contain one
double bond between the carbon atoms are called monounsaturated fats
32. Polyunsaturated Fats Unsaturated fats with more than one double bond
between the carbon atoms are called polyunsaturated fats. Polyunsaturated fats
belong to the family of essential fatty acids (fatty acids required in diet).
Polyunsaturated fats are of two types:
1. Omega-3 fats or omega3 fatty acids having double bond in the third space
from the end of the carbon chain
2. Omega-6 fats or omega6 fatty acids having double bond in the sixth space
from the end of the carbon chain
Trans fat is a fat (lipid) molecule that contains one or more double bonds
in trans geometric configuration. ... In trans configuration, the carbon chain
extends from opposite sides of the double bond
33. ROLE OF ADIPOSE IN OBESITY
Adipose, or fat, tissue is loose connective tissue composed
of fat cells known as adipocytes.
Adipocytes contain lipid droplets of stored triglycerides.
These cells swell as they store fat and shrink when the fat
is used for energy.
There are three types of adipose tissue: white, brown, and
beige adipose.
White adipose stores energy and helps to insulate the
body.
Brown and beige adipose tissue burn energy and generate
heat. Their colour is derived from the abundance of blood
vessels and mitochondria in the tissue.
34. Role of adipose adipose tissue in obesity (contd)
Adipocytes form an extensive amount of peptide hormones known
as adipokines (or adipocytokines).
In general, they mainly regulate the energy metabolism and their
effect on appetite and feeding behaviour influences a long-term
regulation of the body weight.
Leptin-which inhibit appetite, reduce the mass of the adipose tissue
and increase the amount of energy expenditure which results in the
loss of body mass. It inhibition of lipogenesis, stimulation of lipose,
and an increase of oxidation of fatty acids
35. CONTD …..
Adiponectin increases insulin sensitivity of tissues. Secretion of
the hormone increases with reduction of body mass and decreases in
the case of obesity.
Resistin - reduce insulin sensitivity of tissues activates insulin
resistance, and acts as a proinflammatory factor by increasing
production of TNF, IL 1, IL 6, and IL 12 & leads to obesity
Visfatin - stimulates insulin secretion and increases insulin
sensitivity and glucose uptake by muscle cells and adipocytes &
produce obesity
36. LIPO PROTEINS
A lipoprotein is a biochemical assembly that contains both proteins and
lipids , bound to the proteins , which allow fats to move through the
water inside and outside cells
TYPES AND FUNCTIONS
VLDL- Transports triglycerides from liver to adipose tissue
LDL- are the principal cholesterol and fat transporter in human blood
that carries cholesterol from the liver to the body tissues and cells.
IDL-Transports triglycerides, cholesterol and phospholipids from liver
to peripheral tissues
HDL- Transports cholesterol and phospholipids from tissues and organs
like heart back to liver
37. ROLE OF ENOCRINE SYSTEM IN
OBESITY
ACTIONS OF INSULIN
Facilitating transport and uptake of glucose by the cells,
Increasing the peripheral utilization of glucose,
Increasing the storage of glucose by converting it into glycogen in
liver and muscle,
Inhibiting glycogenolysis, Inhibiting gluconeogenesis
Preventing conversion of proteins into glucose,
Synthesis of fatty acids and triglycerides,
Transport of fatty acids into adipose
38. ACTIONS OF GLUCAGON
Facilitating glucose transport into liver cells
Increasing glycogenolysis
Increasing gluconeogenesis
Increases utilization of amino acids for ENERGY
Increases lipolysis
39. ACTIONS OF THYROID
HORMONES
It increases BMR by increasing the oxygen consumption of the tissues. The
action that increases the BMR is called calorigenic action
Increases the absorption of glucose from GI tract ,Enhances the glucose
uptake by the cells, by accelerating the transport of glucose through the cell
membrane, increases the breakdown of glycogen into glucose Accelerates
gluconeogenesis.
Thyroxine decreases the fat storage by mobilizing it from adipose tissues and
fat depots. The mobilized fat is converted into free fatty acid and transported
by blood.
Thyroxine increases synthesis of protein but it also causes catabolism of
proteins.
40. ACTIONS OF GROWTH
HORMONE
growth hormone stimulates protein anabolism in many tissues.
This effect reflects increased amino acid uptake, increased
protein synthesis and decreased oxidation of proteins.
Fat metabolism: Growth hormone enhances the utilization of
fat by stimulating triglyceride breakdown and oxidation in
adipocytes.
Carbohydrate metabolism: it supresses the abilities of
insulin to stimulate uptake of glucose in peripheral tissues and
enhance glucose synthesis in the liver.
41. ACTIONS OF GLUCOCORTICOIDS
By promoting gluconeogenesis in liver from amino acids:
Glucocorticoids enhance the breakdown of proteins in
extrahepatic cells, particularly the muscle. It is followed by
release of amino acids into circulation. From blood, amino acids
enter the liver and get converted into glucose (gluconeogenesis)
Glucocorticoids cause mobilization of proteins from tissues other
than liver. Mobilization of fatty acids from adipose tissue
Increasing the concentration of fatty acids in blood , Increasing
the utilization of fat for energy.
It stimulate Calorigenic effect of glucagon ii. Lipolytic effect of
catecholamines
42. ACTIONS OF CATECHOLAMINE'S
Adrenaline increases the blood glucose level by increasing
the glycogenolysis in liver and muscle. So, a large quantity
of glucose enters the circulation
Adrenaline causes mobilization of free fatty acids from
adipose tissues.
43. ACTIONS OF SEX HORMONES
Estrogen induces anabolism of proteins, by which it
increases the total body protein.
On fat metabolism Estrogen causes deposition of fat in the
subcutaneous tissues, breasts, buttocks and thighs.
progesterone favour the storage of tfat in adipose and
breast tissue
Testosterone it increase the anabolism of protein ,it
increase basl metabolic rate , it increase the mobilisation
of fat
44. HORMONE - FAT DISRIBUTION
Back of the hips - elevated insulin levels.
Thighs - elevated estrogen level
Back of arms - Low testosterone levels and elevated insulin
level
Stomach- elevated oestrogen, insulin and cortisol
Upper back fat- high level of insulin & low level of
thyroxine
Cankles - high level of insulin & low level of growth
hormone
45. CONCLUSION
Overconsumption of calorie-dense foods is one significant
causal factor in obesity, which may provoke the food
addiction mechanism.
Obesity may result from a combination of dysfunction of
brain circuits and neuroendocrine hormones.
It leads to pathological overeating, physical inactivity and
other patho-physiological conditions which leads to obesity.
