How can insulin deficiency lead to an increase in blood glucose concentration?

Biology

MakcuM [25]1 year ago

When insulin is deficient , GLUT4 transporters are not inserted into the cell membranes , glucose is not transported into the cells and the blood glucose concentration increases.

Insulin deficiency provides more amino acid and glycerol substrates for glucose synthesis  ie increased gluconeogenesis .

With a deficiency of insulin, there is both increased hepatic glucose production through increased glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis as well as decreased glucose use. The result is hyperglycemia.

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

I started out as glucose, got converted to pyruvate, after which I got oxidised by Oxygen to become CO2

Explanation:

My name is CO2, and I started out as glucose from pure honey. I got eaten by a little child when I was two weeks old, and I had to go through the dreadful process of aerobic respiration in the child's body.

My glucose molecules were broken down into pyruvate, and I stayed that way  for a while, as I made my way to the mitochondria of the child's cells.  Once I got to the mitochondria, I met my old friend oxygen, who reacted with me to turn me into the molecule I am today - C02.

If you want to know how I escaped the child's body, that's easy - I simply snuck out his nose while he was breathing one cold dark night.
