Interrelationship of Carbohydrate,
Lipid, & Protein Metabolism
• Any energy nutrient can fuel the
body in the short term
• TCA cycle = amphibolic pathway
• Lipogenesis
– CHO spares lipolysis - promotes gain
– Glucose is precursor for glycerol &
fatty acids
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Interrelationship of Carbohydrate,
Lipid, & Protein Metabolism
• Gluconeogenesis
– Glycerol portion only from fat
– Fatty acids with odd # of C atoms
– Glucogenic amino acids
• Conversion among energy
nutrients favors lipogenesis
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Interrelationship of Carbohydrate,
Lipid, & Protein Metabolism
• TCA cycle & electron transport
chain - common to all 3
• This catabolic pathway also:
– Produces CO2 for carboxylation & C
for other needs
– Provides common intermediates
– Provides citrate & malate for
lipogenesis
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
The Central Role of the Liver
in Metabolism
• Key processor & distributor
• Glycogenesis & glycogenolysis
• Protein synthesis, catabolism,
conversion to other compounds
• Lipoprotein synthesis

Tissue-Specific Metabolism
during the Fed-Fast Cycle
• Stages of fed-fast cycle
– Fed state - lasts 3 hours after meal
ingestion
– Postabsorptive/early fasting state - 3
to 12-18 hours after meal
– Fasting state - 18 hours to 2 days
after meal when nothing else eaten
– Starvation/long-term fast - fully
adapted to deprivation (weeks)
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Carbohydrate & Lipid
Metabolism
• The fed state
– Glucose  glycogen & fatty acids
– Glucose used by nervous tissues,
RBCs, adipose & muscle tissues
• The postabsorptive or early fasting
state
– Glycogenolysis
– Gluconeogenesis
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Carbohydrate & Lipid
Metabolism
• The fasting state
– Amino acids (primarily), glycerol,
lactate used for gluconeogenesis
– Ketone formation
• The starvation state
– Fatty acids used to greater extent
– Glycerol major glucose source
– Ketosis after oxaloacetate depletion
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Amino Acid Metabolism
• Fed state - used for proteins or
degraded
• Fasting
– Catabolism for energy produces
quantities of N
• Excreted in urea
– Gluconeogensis in liver & kidneys
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
System Integration &
Homeostasis
• Major regulatory systems
– Nervous system
– Endocrine system
– Vascular system
• Endocrine function in fed state
– GIP, CCK, gastrin, secretin
– Insulin
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
System Integration &
Homeostasis
• Endocrine function in
postabsorptive or fasting state
– Glucagon
– Epinephrine & norepinephrine
– Low levels of insulin
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Metabolic Syndrome
• Cluster of risk factors for CVD,
CKD & T2DM
• Insulin resistance
• Weight loss & insulin insensitivity
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Sports Nutrition
• Energy for physical activity comes
from nutrients
• Energy demands during physical
exertion in athletes similar to fedfast cycle
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Biochemical Assessment of
Physical Exertion
• Types of muscle
– Type I (“red”) - oxidative
– Type IIa (“white”) - hybrid of I & IIb
– Type IIb (“white”) - fewer mitochondria &
active glycolytic pathway
• Common measurements
– Respiratory quotient (RQ)
– Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max)
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Energy Sources during
Exercise
• The ATP-CP (phosphagen) system
– Muscles use high-energy creatine
phosphate with ATP
• The lactic acid system
– Anaerobic glycolysis
• The aerobic system
– TCA cycle
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Energy Sources during
Exercise
• Fuel sources during exercise
– Muscle glycogen
– Plasma glucose
– Plasma fatty acids
– Intramuscular triacylglycerols
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Energy Sources during
Exercise
• Exercise intensity & duration
– Low intensity - plasma fatty acids
– Moderate intensity - increased fatty
acid oxidation (due to muscle TG)
– High intensity - CHO oxidation &
lactate production increase
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Energy Sources during
Exercise
• Level of exercise training
– Training increases muscle glycogen &
TG stores
• Initial muscle glycogen levels
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Carbohydrate Supplementation
(Supercompensation)
• Classical regimen
– 2 sessions of intense exercise, 2 days
of low-CHO diet, 3 days of high-CHO
diet + rest
• Modified regimen
– Exercise tapered over 5 days, 1 day
of rest
– 3 days of 50%-CHO diet, then 3 days
of 70%-CHO diet
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Diets for Exercise
• Macronutrients
• Meal frequency
• Pre-event meal
• Glycemic index
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Nutritional Ergogenic Aids
• Amino acids
– Arginine
– Ornithine
– Aspartate salts
– Branched-chain amino acids
• Antioxidants
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Nutritional Ergogenic Aids
• Herbs
– The ginsengs
• Caffeine
• Intermediary metabolites

–
Bicarbonate
Carnitine
Coenzyme Q10
Creatine
Other

Perspective 7
Diabetes:
Metabolism Out of Control
2009 Cengage-Wadsworth
Diabetes
• Type 2 diabetes
– Insulin resistance in peripheral
tissues due to lack of functional
glucose transporters
• Type 1 diabetes
– Lack of insulin due to autoimmune
response against pancreatic -cells
