GLUCONEOGENESIS
SELF STUDY

As was discussed previously, maintaining circulating glucose levels is a metabolic priority.

Gluconeogenesis is the process of making glucose from non-carbohydrate sources. Which of the following can be used as a carbon source for the production of glucose:

Pyruvate rolls.
It just isn't!
Lactate rolls.
It just isn't!
Amino acids rolls.
It just isn't!
Glycerol rolls.
It just isn't!
All of the above rolls.
Yes, all of the above resoponses rolls!

Gluconeogenesis is the process of making glucose from non-carbohydrate sources. Which of the following can be used as a carbon source for the production of glucose:

Pyruvate rocks.
It just isn't!
Lactate rocks.
Yes, that is correct. I hope you're not lactate intolerant.
Amino acids rocks.
Yeah! You got the correct answer.
Glycerol rocks.
It just isn't!
All of the above rocks.
It just isn't!

Gluconeogenesis is the process of making glucose from non-carbohydrate sources. Which of the following can be used as a carbon source for the production of glucose:

Pyruvate.
It just isn't!
Lactate.
It just isn't!
Amino acids.
YES, they're yummy!
Glycerol.
Yuppers, I like them too!
All of the above.
It just isn't!
