LIPID METABOLISM:

KETOGENESIS
Ike Dhiah R.
1
Oxidation of Fatty Acids
Objectives

• The process fatty acid transportation in the blood

• Beta oxidation pathway which leads to ATP production

• Ketone bodies are important fuels for extra hepatic tissue

• Diseases associated with impaired fatty acid oxidation

2
LIPID CLASSIFICATION

Complex
Simple Lipids Derived Lipids
Lipids
• Fats (Esters of • Phospholipids • Fatty acids
fatty acids • Glycolipids • Glycerol
with glycerols) • Lipoproteins • Steroids
• Waxes • Ketonebodies

3
Saturated chains: No double bonds
Unsaturated: Containing one or more double bonds

4
Classification of Unsaturated Fatty Acid

Monounsaturated
• One double bond

Polyunsaturated
• Two or more double bonds

Eicosanoids
• Derived from eicosa (20-carbon)
7
Productions and Actions of Prostaglandins
Trans Fatty Acids

• Saturation of fatty acids


during hydrogenation or
hardening, of natural oils in
the manufacture of margarine

• Increasing risk of
Cardiovascular disease
Physiological Properties of Fatty Acids
and Degree of Unsaturation

• Melting points (even-numbered carbon fatty acids)


increase with chain length and decrease according to
unsaturation
• TAG (3 saturated fatty acids of 12 or more carbons is
solid at body temperature), whereas if fatty acids residues
are polyunsaturated, it is liquid to below O0C
• Membrane lipids: fluid at all environmental temperatures,
more unsaturated than storage lipids
Omega-3 Fatty Acids

• Alpha-linolenic acids
(ALA): plant oils
Cardiovascular Disease
• Eicosapentaenoic
Alzheimer’s Disease
(EPA): fish oils
Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Docosahexaenoic
(DHA): fish and algal
oils
Triacylglycerols are esters of trihydric alcohol glycerol and fatty acids

15
Oxidation of Fatty
Acids: Ketogenesis
Fatty acids are transported in
the blood, activated and
transported into the matrix of
the mitochondria for breakdown
to energy
Transportation of FA
in the Blood

• Free Fatty Acids (FFA) / Unesterified Fatty Acids (UFA) /


Nonesterified Fatty Acids (NEFA)

• Longer chain FFA: Combined with albumin


• Shorter: More water soluble – unionized acid or fatty acid
anion
Transport Fatty Acids Through
Mitochondrial Membrane

• Free Fatty Acids (FFA) —>


Acyl CoA

• Acyl CoA + Carnitine —>


Acylcarnitine + CoA

• Acylcarnitine can penetrate


into inner membrane of
mitochondria

19
Beta Oxidation of Fatty Acids

• 2 carbons are cleaved from


Acyl CoA

• Palmitoyl CoA

• Acetyl CoA

20
Beta-Oxidation of Fatty Acids
Long chain acyl-CoA is cycled through reactions (2-5),
Acyl CoA being split off, each cycle by Thiolase.
2 Acetyl-CoA molecules are formed

21
Oxidation of Fatty Acids Produces
Large Quantity of ATP
Formation, Utilization, and Excretion of Ketone Bodies

23
Ketone Bodies

Fuels for tissues:

Soluble in aqueous

Produced when acetyl


coA present exceeds
oxidative capacity of liver

used in extra hepatic


tissue: skeletal and
cardiac muscle
Acetoacetate

3-hydroxybutirate

Acetone
24
Ketone Bodies

25
Transport of Ketone Bodies

26
Regulation of
Ketogenesis

27
Ketogenesis

1. Control of FFA mobilization from adipose tissues


2. The activity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase-I in liver,
which determines proportion of fatty acid that is oxidized
rather than esterified
3. Partition of acetyl-CoA between the pathway of
ketogenesis and citric acid cycle
Fatty Acid
Biosyntesis
Biosynthesis of Malonyl-CoA

After the formation of malonyl-CoA, fatty acids are formed by the fatty
acid synthase enzyme complex.
Insulin and Lipogenesis
• Acetyl-Co-A Carboxylase
• Level of intracellular cAMP:
activity
inhibits lipolysis in adipose
• Transport of Glucose into cell
tissue
• Availability of pyruvate for
• Concentration of plasma FFA
fatty acid synthesis and
– long chain acyl-coA
glycerol-3-phosphate for
(inhibitors of lipogenesis)
TAG synthesis
Nutritional State and Lipogenesis

• Lipogenesis • Lipogenesis
• Surplus glucose and • Fructose intake (instead of
intermediates (pyruvate, Glucose)
lactate,and acetyl-CoA) – • Fructose bypasses the
Fat phosphofructokinase
control point in glycolysis
• Restricted calorie intake, and floods the lipogenic
high-fat diet, insulin pathway)
deficiency
SYNTHESIS AND DEGRADATION OF FATTY ACIDS

33
• Ketoacidosis as complication
of Diabetes Mellitus
