It is an effort to keep glucose level relatively constant. A balance is

established between its supply (carbohydrates from food, glycogenolysis and

gluconeogenesis) and its processing (glycolysis, glycogen production, pentose

cycle, fat production).

While a number of hormones contribute to the increase in glycaemia, only

one hormone has the opposite effect:

The

figures show two variants of the HDL-cholesterol estimation.

     A.                                                                                                                     B.

HDL - protilátkaHDL -precipitace

 

Common to both methods

is the blockade of non-HDL cholesterol (A. by binding to a specific antibody or

B. by precipitation with tungstophosphoric acid and subsequent removal by centrifugation)

followed by an enzymatic assay similar to that of total cholesterol (the method

is used in laboratory exercise).

Mechanism

of action of insulin:

Insulin

binds to the receptor → complex signalling pathway → glucose entry into the

cell

Are there

cells that do not need insulin to enter glucose?

Lack

of insulin → hyperglycemia (when the renal threshold is exceeded - glycosuria),

cells do not have enough glucose, they use fatty acids to gain energy →

overproduction of ketone bodies (ketonuria)

Insulin is usually formed

normally, but the cells are resistant to it (either the number of receptors is

reduced or it is a disorder of insulin signal transmission) -
