Metabolism at rest and during
physical activities
Textbooks
Catabolism (分解代謝)
Complex organic molecules simple
Exergonic (放能): energy releasing
Examples: glycolysis (糖酵解), citric acid cycle (檸檬酸
循環), electron transport system (電子傳遞系統), etc
Carbohydrate metabolism
Carbohydrate (碳水化合物)
Polysaccharides (多醣), disaccharides (二糖), etc
Hydrolyzed (水解) to monosaccharides, eg. glucose
(~80%)
Glucose (葡萄糖)
Preferred source for ATP synthesis
Starting point of glycolysis
Inter-conversion point of
metabolites
物資交匯處
Citric acid cycle
Citric acid cycle: inter-conversion point for many
metabolites
Carbohydrates (glucose) citric acid cycle
Fatty acids citric acid cycle
Some amino acids citric acid cycle
Glycerol
Metabolized to
pyruvic acid to acetyl
CoA
Protein catabolism
Stimulated by cortisol (皮質醇)
Proteins amino acids
Deamination (脱氨基作用) in liver: remove amino
group to urea
Transamination (氨基轉移) in muscle: transfer amino
group to other amino acids (Photo credit: Baynes & Dominiczak, 2009)
Metabolic energy
Energy consumed by the body
Basal metabolic rate (BMR 基礎代謝率)
Total heat energy released from the body at rest
Sum of all exothermic (放熱) reactions at rest
Measurement
Direct calorimetry (量熱): total heat liberated
measured over time
Rest without food consumption for 12 hr
No physical activity for 2 hr
Indirect calorimetry: calculated from the amount of
O2 consumed
Myoglobin
Found in sacroplasm (肌漿) of muscle fibres
Bind/release oxygen ATP production
Pages 134-169;
192-205; 232-233

Efficiency
1 mole of glucose 686 kcal of energy
1 mole of glucose 32 moles of ATP =
233 kcal
66% of energy dissipated as heat

Energy release from carbohydrates 2
Slow aerobic glycolysis
Glucose pyruvate citric acid cycle electron
transport chain
ATP released
18-C fatty acid 147 ATPs
Glycerol 19 ATPs
Triglyceride 460 ATPs
ADP + Pi ATP
energy level [ADP] ATP generation
energy level [ADP] ATP generation
Criteria
High capacity of circulation to deliver O2
High capacity of muscle to use available O2
DIT (飲食生熱效應)
Consume 10 to 30% of food energy
Thermic (產熱) effect of
carbohydrates/proteins>lipids
Thermic effect of protein ~25%: ingestion
process + liver metabolism
Thermic effect lower in athletes
But exercise after meal DIT
Obesity DIT of exercise after meal
