    Study Notes

    Glycolysis and TCA Cycle

    • Glycolysis converts glucose to pyruvate, producing ATP and NADH.
    • The TCA cycle oxidizes acetyl-CoA to CO2, generating NADH and FADH2 for ATP production.
    • Energy yield from complete catabolism of glucose under aerobic conditions is 36-38 ATP.
    • Key enzymes in glycolysis include pyruvate kinase, resonating in energy regulation.
    • The conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA is catalyzed by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.

    Glucose Metabolism

    • Insulin regulates glucose storage primarily through glycogen synthesis in liver and muscle tissues.
    • Glucose is a primary fuel for tissues like the brain and red blood cells.
    • An example of a facilitated diffusion transporter is GLUT1.

    Key Enzymes in TCA Cycle

    • Citrate synthase is activated by acetyl-CoA.
    • Isocitrate dehydrogenase converts isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate.
    • The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex parallels enzyme complexes within the TCA cycle.

    Inhibition and Activation in Metabolism

    • Glucose-6-phosphate irreversibly inhibits hexokinase.
    • Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate activates pyruvate kinase while glucagon signaling inactivates it.

    Chronic Inflammation

    • Chronic inflammation is primarily caused by persistent stimuli such as infection or autoimmunity.
    • Main inflammatory cells involved are macrophages and lymphocytes.
    • Outcome of chronic inflammation includes tissue remodeling and potential fibrosis.

    Granulomas and Inflammation Types

    • Non-caseating 'naked' granulomas characterize conditions like sarcoidosis.
    • Fibrinous inflammation features a protein-rich exudate, while suppurative inflammation produces pus.

    Ulcers vs Erosions

    • An ulcer extends deeper into the tissue compared to an erosion, which is confined to the epithelial layer.

    Immune Response and Cells

    • Professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs), such as dendritic cells, stimulate naive T cells.
    • Mast cells, derived from basophils, are the least common leukocytes migrating to tissues.
    • Macrophage aggregation surrounded by lymphocytes is referred to as granulomatous inflammation.

    Learning Theories

    • Classical conditioning involves learning through association, leading to conditioned responses.
    • Operant conditioning revolves around behavior modification through reinforcement strategies.
    • Reinforcement aims to increase the likelihood of a behavior occurring again.

    Observational Learning and Therapy

    • Social context and role models, emphasized by theorists like Albert Bandura, enhance observational learning.
    • Exposure therapy helps diminish fear responses through gradual exposure to feared stimuli.

    Wound Healing and Cell Types

    • Permanent cells, such as neurons and cardiac muscle cells, do not proliferate after injury.
    • Factors like infection or poor blood supply impair wound healing.
    • Difference in healing methods: primary intention involves direct closure, while secondary intention involves granulation tissue formation.

    Electron Transport Chain and Oxidative Phosphorylation

    • NADH transfers electrons to CoQ in the electron transport chain, producing ATP through a proton gradient.
    • Final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain is oxygen.
    • Chemiosmotic theory explains ATP synthesis via the proton motive force across the membrane.

    Mitochondrial Health

    • Mitochondrial diseases are characterized by energy metabolism issues and common symptoms include muscle weakness.
    • High concentrations of certain compounds can lead to severe brain damage in infants.
    • Brown adipose tissue is responsible for thermogenesis, utilizing uncoupling proteins during oxidative phosphorylation.
