| | Gluconeogenesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | This process occurs during periods of starvation or intense exercise and is highly exergonic. |  | | Many 3 and 4-carbon substrates can enter the gluconeogenesis pathway. |  | | However, the first designated substrate in the gluconeogenic pathway is pyruvate. |

| | Question 1 |
 | | Remember that the principle is that the three irreversible steps in the glycolytic pathway must be circumvented in gluconeogenesis. |  | | This is important in gluconeogenesis from glycerol (in the liver) but not from lactate. |

| | Gluconeogenesis, glucose ... |
 | | First, gluconeogenesis was increased in obese non-diabetic subjects. |  | | It has been recognized for several years that stimulation of gluconeogenesis can be attained by infusion of gluconeogenic precursors such as glycerol [5] or lactate [6]. |  | | Gluconeogenesis was further enhanced, possibly related to more severe extrahepatic and hepatic insulin resistance, and resulted in an increased glucose-6-phosphate flux in glucose-producing cells. |

| | Gluconeogenesis |
 | | The relevant features of the pathway of gluconeogenesis are diagrammed below. |  | | Pyruvate, generated in muscle and other peripheral tissues, can be transaminated to alanine which is returned to the liver for gluconeogenesis. |  | | The Cori cycle invloves the utilization of lactate, produced by glycolysis in non-hepatic tissues, (such as muscle and erythrocytes) as a carbon source for hepatic gluconeogenesis. |

| | Glycolysis |
 | | This is due to the fact that large amounts of G6P are derived from the breakdown of glycogen (the predominant mechanism of carbohydrate entry into glycolysis in skeletal muscle) and, therefore, the hexokinase reaction is not necessary. |  | | Under various conditions of glucose deficiency, such as long periods between meals, the liver is stimulated to supply the blood with glucose through the pathway of gluconeogenesis. |  | | The aldolase reaction proceeds readily in the reverse direction, being utilized for both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. |

| | The chemical logic behind... Gluconeogenesis |
 | | The choice of the process depens on the availability of cytoplasmic NADH (needed for gluconeogenesis). |  | | Gluconeogenesis is the synthesis of glucose from other organic compounds (pyruvate, succinate, lactate, oxaloacetate, etc. Most of the reactions involved are quite similar to the reverse of glycolysis. |  | | Oxaloacetate can then be decarboxylated to PEP by the cytoplasmic PEPCK. |

 | | Very little gluconeogenesis occurs in the brain, skeletal muscles, heart muscles or other body tissue. |  | | Gluconeogenesis occurs mainly in the liver with a small amount also occurring in the cortex of the kidney. |  | | The starting point of gluconeogenesis is pyruvic acid, although oxaloacetic acid and dihydroxyacetone phosphate also provide entry points. |

Although muscle lacks a receptor for glucagon, the hormone epinephrine ("adrenaline") causes a similar activation of protein kinase A. Would you expect epinephrine to have a similar effect on glycolysis in muscle as glucagon does in liver? |
