Homework Answers
The tissues of heart, liver, muscles and brain all have in common is 'Lactate dehydrogenase'. This feature helps when cells need lactase as a source of energy as lactate dehydrogenase catalyses the conversion of lactate to pyruvate and back as it converts NAD+ to NADH and back.
Dehydrogenase is an enzyme that transfer a hydride from one molecule to another. LDH is released when the tissues of brain, liver and heart are damaged and they release LDH into the bloodstream.

Beginning by drawing boxes that represent the following tissues: brain, liver, adipose, heart, and skeletal muscle. With the paper in a landscape orientation, place the liver in the center, the brain the upper left, adipose upper right, skeletal muscle lower left, and heart lower right. You will need to use contrasting colors of ink for this assignment (black and red, black and blue, blue and red, or green and red are recommended). One color will represent fed state and the...

Based on your knowledge of cell signaling and interorgan metabolism, describe how the fuel metabolism of the liver, adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, heart and brain are affected in type I diabetics (assuming no insulin shot has been used) immediately after a meal and between meals. Include what pathways have been affected (glycolysis, glycogen synthesis, etc) and what the organ/tissue uses as a fuel source.
The above brain MRI shows a large glioblastoma tumor with areas of necrosis within the tumor
Case 2 Regulation of glucose uptake by the cell The above brain MRI shows a large glioblastoma tumor with areas of necrosis within the tumor (tumor is the bright white area within the brain field on MRI). On the right is a PET scan from the same individual following administration of fluorescently labeled D-glucose. Use the following series of questions to determine how/if glucose uptake differs in the tumor when compared to the surrounding tissues. In normal tissue, how is glucose uptake regulated in...

1.What can we conclude about the expression of alkaline phosphatase in pork and liver tissues?Is alkaline phosphatase expressed in all tissues? In equal amounts? 2.Are there any problems that might make one tissue more difficult to examine than an other? 3.Why do you think the enzyme is expressed in the cells that it is? 4.Is the expression of the enzyme localized in any particular areas of the tissues? Is it all over? How can you tell?

Why does a skeletal muscle cell need a neuromuscular junction as a component part? Skeletal muscle fibers are voluntary and thus must be stimulated by a neural impulse before they will contract. Through the neuron, the brain tells the muscle cell what proteins to produce and what wastes to pump out of the cell. The muscle cell needs to be told when to divide, such as when a person is exercising and needs more muscle. A neuron provides the necessary...

Who is at highest risk for liver disease? What is the portal circulation? How/Why does portal hypertension occur? What role do the collateral vessels play in portal hypertension? Elevations of which 2 LFT are indicative of generalized liver inflammation? Which of these 2 tests is specific to the liver? Why does the albumin level help assess liver function? Why is PT (prothrombin time) a liver function test? Why might the GTT be elevated? What 2 diseases might the alkaline phosphatase...

Choose any and all appropriate answers: How is the muscular contraction stopped (i.e.: how does a muscle relax after contraction)? The brain stops sending the nerve impulse that commands the muscle to contract, interrupting communication at the neuromuscular junction Acetylcholineesterase (AChE) is released into the synaptic cleft to destroy any remaining Acetylcholine No mechanism is necessary. When the antagonist begins to contract, it forces relaxation and stretch of the agonist muscle. Relaxation occurs as the myosin heads are "snapped" off...

Through transcription factor activity b. Through alternative splicing of mRNA c. Through the accumulation of mutations d. Through gene silencing e.
