Carbohydrate (CHO) Digestion
6
Digestion of carbohydrate in the Small Intestine Pancreatic amylase is released Intestinal cells release maltase, sucrase, and lactase Maltose + maltase glucose + glucose Sucrose + sucrase glucose + fructose Lactose + lactase glucose + galactose Monosaccharides are absorbed

Disaccharides digestion

► Glucose is the most important carbohydrate ► Glucose is the major metabolic fuel of mammals. ► Monosaccharide from diet : - Glucose - Glucose - Fructose - Fructose - Galactose - Galactose ► Fructose and Galactose glucose at the liver
9
Glucose transporters (GLUT) ► GLUT1~5 GLUT1: RBC GLUT1: RBC GLUT4: adipose tissue, muscle GLUT4: adipose tissue, muscle
10
The metabolism of glucose ► glycolysis ► aerobic oxidation ► pentose phosphate pathway ► glycogen synthesis and catabolism ► gluconeogenesis

Glycogen is a polymer of glucose residues linked by (1→4) glycosidic bonds, mainly (1→6) glycosidic bonds, at branch points.

GLYCOGENESIS AND GLYCOGENOLYSIS PATHWAY
20
GLYCOGENOLYSIS The breakdown of glycogen The breakdown of glycogen Glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes cleavage of the 1 →4 linkages of glycogen to yield glucose-1- phosphate Glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes cleavage of the 1 →4 linkages of glycogen to yield glucose-1- phosphate Debranching enzyme hydrolysis of the 1→6 linkages Debranching enzyme hydrolysis of the 1→6 linkages The combined action of these enzymes leads to the complete breakdown of glycogen. The combined action of these enzymes leads to the complete breakdown of glycogen.

Carbohydrate Metabolism Glycogenolysis Activation Physiologic -- in response to increased blood glucose utilization during prolonged exercise. Pathologic -- as a result of blood loss. Acute stress (regardless of source): activates glycogenolysis through the action of catecholamine hormone, epinephrine (released by the adrenal medulla). During prolonged exercise: both glucagon and epinephrine contribute to stimulation of glycogenolysis. Physiologic -- in response to increased blood glucose utilization during prolonged exercise.

23
Insulin Carbohydrate Metabolism Hormonal regulation Inhibition of Glycogenolysis Insulin secreted by pancreas -cells when blood [glucose] is high. Synthesized as single peptide chain zymogen: proinsulin. In secretory granules, selective proteolysis releases an internal peptide and a 2-chained insulin hormone. Insulin elicits uptake and intracellular use or storage of glucose. Hyperglycemia results in elevated blood [insulin] associated with fed state. Hyperinsulinemia associated with “insulin resistance” and if chronic can lead to diabetes type-2 and related pathologies. Insulin secreted by pancreas -cells when blood [glucose] is high.
