- Study Figure 19.18 and decide which of the following statements is false. Pyruvate dehydrogenase is inhibited by· NIADH. Pyruvate dehydrogenase is inhibited by AΤΡ. Citrate synthase is inhibited by NADH. Succinyl-CoA activates citrate synthase. Acetyl-CoA activates pyruvate carboxylase.Elevated levels of NADH in the liver promote gluconeogenesis. I'm curious as to your thoughts on this claim.The production of glucose by the liver is facilitated by elevated amounts of the molecule NADH. What are your thoughts on the aforementioned assertion?
- In the liver, higher levels of NADH promote gluconeogenesis. I'm curious as to your thoughts on this claim.Increased levels of NADH in the liver promote the process of gluconeogenesis. What do you make of this statement?Increased NADH concentrations in the liver encourage gluconeogenesis. What do you think about this assertion?
- Define GLUCONEOGENESIS. Give three reasons why is gluconeogenesis important in the Cori cycle?Why is oxaloacetate depletion from the TCA cycle important for the initiation of ketogenesis? What causes this oxaloacetate depletion? What tissue type in our body is this oxaloacetate depletion found and why is it not found in other tissues?Why does epinephrine stimulate glycolysis? I know why epinephrine stimulates glycogenolysis which is to release glucose stores. But epinephrine stimulating glycolysis seems counterintuitive as it would synthesize less glucose and more pyruvate?
