Document Summary

Pyruvic acid goes to next step of energy producing cycle - krebs cycle (only with oxygen) otherwise lactic acid. Occurs within mitochondria (glycolysis occurs outside of mitochondria). Proteins take activated coenzyme and take it along the sequence of proteins. Take electrons from the coenzyme (required oxygen and produces some water). hydrogen ions of coenzyme pass through inner membrane through protein channel (electron transport chain). This creates a concentration gradient so higher conc of hydrogen on the outside of the membrane so will want to move inside via the atp synthase integral protein - converts adp to. Produce less atp and more heat when in a cold environment (brown fat does this - electron transport system affected). Neural signals from gi tract transmitted via vagus nerve. Nutrient signals - fatty acids, glucose, amino acids to hyp. Effects from the above factors are mediated by the hypothalamus. Endocannabinoids - marajuana can activate these receptors. Melanocortins (from pomc neurons) - first order.
