Spotlight on Metabolism and Energy Balance

Energy: Fuel for Work

Energy source

Chemical energy in carbohydrates, fat, and protein

Transferring food energy to cellular energy

Stage 1: digestion, absorption, and transport

Stage 2: breakdown of molecules

Stage 3: transfer of energy to a form cells can use

2

What Is Metabolism?

Catabolism

Reactions that break down compounds into small units

Anabolism

Reactions that build complex molecules from smaller ones

4

5

What Is Metabolism?

Cell is the metabolic processing center

Nucleus

Cytoplasm: cytosol + organelles

Mitochondria are the source of many energy pathways

6

What Is Metabolism?

Who are the key energy players?

ATP is the body’s energy currency

ATP = adenosine triphosphate

Form of energy cell use

NAD and FAD: transport shuttles

Accept high-energy electrons for use in ATP production

8

Breakdown and Release of Energy

Pathways initiate breakdown of macronutrients

Anaerobic

Breakdown glucose

Do not require oxygen

Aerobic

Breakdown glucose, fat, and protein

Require oxygen

Breakdown and Release of Energy

Extracting energy from carbohydrate

Glycolysis

Pathway splits glucose into two pyruvates

Transfers electrons to NAD

Produces some ATP

12

Breakdown and Release of Energy

Extracting energy from carbohydrate

Pyruvate to acetyl CoA

Releases CO2

Transfers electrons to NAD

13

Breakdown and Release of Energy

Extracting energy from carbohydrate

Citric acid cycle

Releases CO2

Produces GTP (like ATP)

Transfers electrons to NAD and FAD

15

Breakdown and Release of Energy

Extracting energy from carbohydrate

Electron transport chain

Accepts electrons from NAD and FAD

Produces large amounts of ATP

Produces water

End products of glucose catabolism

ATP, H2O, and CO2

17

Breakdown and Release of Energy

Extracting energy from fat

Split triglycerides into glycerol and fatty acids

Takes place in mitochondria

Beta-oxidation

Breaks apart fatty acids into acetyl CoA

Transfers electrons to NAD and FAD

19

Breakdown and Release of Energy

Extracting energy from fat

Completing fatty acid breakdown

Acetyl CoA from beta-oxidation enters cycle

Citric acid cycle and electron transport chain

Fat burns in a flame of carbohydrate

End products of fat breakdown

ATP, H2O, and CO2

21

Breakdown and Release of Energy

Extracting energy from protein

Split protein into amino acids

Split off amino group

Converted to urea for excretion

Carbon skeleton enters breakdown pathways

End products

ATP, H2O, CO2, urea

22

Biosynthesis and Storage

Making carbohydrate (glucose)

Gluconeogenesis

Uses pyruvate, lactate, glycerol, and certain amino acids

Storing carbohydrate (glucose  glycogen)

Liver and muscle make glycogen from glucose

Making fat (fatty acids)

Lipogenesis

Uses acetyl CoA from fat, amino acids, and glucose

Storing fat (triglyceride)

Stored in adipose tissue

25

Biosynthesis and Storage

Making ketone bodies (ketogenesis)

Made from acetyl CoA

When inadequate glucose in cells

Making protein (amino acids)

Amino acid pool supplied from

Diet, protein breakdown, and cell synthesis

Biosynthesis

Different pathways used to build amino acids from carbon skeletons

27

Special States

Feasting

Excess energy intake from carbohydrate, fat, protein

Promotes storage

Fat  adipose tissue

Amino acids  protein synthesis

Carbohydrate  adipose tissue

29

Special States

Fasting

Inadequate energy intake

Promotes breakdown

Prolonged fasting

Protects body protein as long as possible

Special States

Fasting

Survival priorities and potential energy sources

Preserve glucose-dependent tissue

RBC, brain cells, central nervous system

Maintain muscle mass

Special States

Fasting

The prolonged fast: In the beginning

Blood glucose drops, liver breaks down glycogen to glucose

Gluconeogenesis

Fat and protein are primary fuel

Special States

Fasting

The early weeks

Several energy-conservation strategies

Several weeks of fasting

Rely on stored body fat

The end is near

Muscle atrophy and emaciation

Sacrificed muscle tissue in attempt to preserve brain tissue

Energy Balance

Energy intake vs. energy output

Energy equilibrium

Intake = output

Maintain weight

34

Energy Balance

Positive energy balance

Intake > output

Gain weight

Negative energy balance

Intake < output

Lose weight

35

Energy In

Regulation of intake

Internal cues

Hunger

Prompts eating

Satiation

Signals to stop eating

Satiety

Tells when you are ready to eat again

36

Energy In

Regulation of intake

External cues

Appetite

Psychological desire to eat

Influenced by the eating environment

38

Energy In

Control by committee

What stimulates our cues?

Internal, physiological response

Eating environment

39

Energy In

Internal factors

Gastrointestinal sensations

Sense of fullness

Neurological and hormonal factors

Neuropeptide Y

Ghrelin

Leptin

40

Energy In

External factors

Energy Out: Fuel Uses

Total energy expenditure

Major components of energy expenditure

Energy expenditure at rest (basal energy expenditure)

Energy for basic body functions

Affected by body size, composition, age, and gender

44

Energy Out: Fuel Uses

Major components of energy expenditure

Physical activity

Highly variable

Affected by body size, fitness level, type of activity

Thermic effect of food (TEF)

Energy to digest, absorb, metabolize food

45

Energy Out: Fuel Uses

Estimating total energy expenditure

Resting energy expenditure (REE)

1.0 kcal/kg/hr for males

0.9 kcal/kg/hr for females

Physical activity

Add a % of REE (see Table 8.2)

Thermic effect of food

6% to 10% of (REE + physical activity)

47

Estimating Energy Expenditure

Estimated Energy Requirement (EER)

Equations for males and females

Factors for age, weight, height, and physical activity

Predicts total energy expenditure (TEE)

48

Body Composition

Body composition

Fat and lean muscle mass

Assessing body weight

Body mass index (BMI)

Weight (kg) × height2 (m)

BMI ≤ 18.5 kg/m2 = underweight

BMI 18.5 to ≥ 25 kg/m2 = normal weight

BMI 25 to ≤ 30kg/m2 = overweight

BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 = obese
