    Ninja Nerds!
    In this lecture Professor Zach Murphy will present on gluconeogenesis. We discuss how we convert amino acids, glycerol, lactic acid, and odd chain fatty acids into glucose, as well as the various enzymes involved with regulating this pathway. We hope you enjoy this lecture and be sure to support us below!

    Moral of the gluconeogenesis story : don't give up, find some another way to get around the obstacle 😊

    This stuff is legit incredible. I had a lecture on this at university, and my professor was so terrible at explaining both glycolisis and gluconeogenesis. She just showed slides of the entire cycle and talked about the steps by laserpointing at them. It was two hours of torture. I love how you showed it step by step. This is the way.

    Bio-medical science student here, wanted to thank you so so much! I've been struggling with this course throughout the semester, up until the point of completely giving up, not showing up on lectures nor submitting assignments. Now with the test coming up I've watched the entire playlist like 5 times, and it's such a different experience! I found out I actually kinda like it! No professor in the world could help me out the way you guys at ninja nerd did.
    THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU'RE DOING, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MANY STUDENTS YOU'VE HELPED! saved my degree 100%!

      It's hard to understand why it's commonly thought that diabetic ketoacidosis could be caused by nutritional ketosis in healthy or non-diabetic people. Even more so that the brain "prefers" glucose over ketones simply because it uses glucose until it's exhausted the supply. Why is it not considered the bodies way of eliminating what we know as a toxic substance to get back into homeostasis? Does the body require carbohydrates (i.e., SUGAR)? NO! There is no such thing as an essential carbohydrate, unlike the fact that there are (Almost all) essential amino acids derived from bioavailable nutrient-dense animal sources unlike the non-bioavailable plant sources due to the oxalates, phytates, and numerous other plant defense compounds that cause diabetes including the aptly named type 3 diabetes ergo Alzheimer's and dementia. Likely caused by the overconsumption of carbohydrates. Is it any wonder that when the body requires a small amount of glucose for its requirements that the liver performs the process we know as gluconeogenesis? Why is it that sugar stimulates the same part of the (pleasure center) brain that cocaine and heroine do? Are they preferred by the brain as well?
      I'm a fan of the ninja's here, but the non-scientific remarks lend to oversimplification, which simply is not true. Let's suppose for the sake of argument that we look at the diabetics condition regarding the so-called preferred fuel (currently conventional hypothesis). Type1 diabetics are more susceptible to ketoacidosis than type 2 and as we reduce the severity down further to pre-diabetic and insulin resistant the risk is reduced likewise. Today we are likely to see 1 in 3 people with one of these conditions or at least other conditions like obesity, CHD and so on. In the '60s and 70's not so much. Conventional thinking, in other words, is not thinking, it's just groupthink. And the reason learned doctors bought into the hypothesis that cholesterol was bad from horrible pseudoscience that led to Statins, then ED medication, Metformin and the like. So now they manage diseases for profit rather than prescribe the means to cure, prevent and reverse said conditions. Do you know that it's still taught that type2 diabetes is a progressive disease when thousands of people have been diagnosed with it, then changed their diet or took up a fasting focused lifestyle and reversed it thereby curing it by definition. How bout, Fatty Liver disease or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease said to be no cure for it and yet numerous people likely anyone 30 to 40lbs overweight or eating lots of fructose (more carbs like fruit) or drinking soda ridding themselves of the diagnosis after ceasing the practice of partaking in the consumption of the so-called preferred fuel. And that's without exercise. Does the brain take-up lactate as a fuel like the heart that seems to prefer it. According to Dr. George A. Brooks research, it would appear that his lactate shuttle theory is spot on and has been a pioneer for decades over all the conventional textbooks regurgitating conventional outdated ideas. Remember, plant agriculture is so very young in human history(12 thousand years at best), which is not to say it has no place in the human diet. That being said however what is the human digestive system designed to process the best for optimal nutrition? Is it the human cells that process and take up the carbs from plant matter, or the bacteria from the gut microbiome which are located in a healthy gut after the stomach (Ph of 1.5 to 2, consisting of hydrochloric acid and pepsin) some in the duodenum but mostly in the colin where that matter ferments (rots) gets excreted by the bacteria (pooped out) as short-chain fatty acids only then available as a source of energy? And what are HCI and pepsin in the stomach to do but break down protein from animal sources like all predators? Ever wonder why you don't see meat in your own excrement, but corn, legumes and the like often enough.
      Sorry for the rant, but as I said I like the nerds and their presentation in particular, however, I suppose to pass an exam taught at universities that conform to bought and paid for by pharmaceutical, Coke and big food/agriculture and pesticide industries you would go further in academia than questioning bogus studies paid for by the same. Ever wonder why so many vegans suffer neurological disorders or a malnourished appearance and please don't quote the propaganda film game-changers, please.
      Anyway check out why to your body the no such thing as a calorie and counting them is ridiculously absurd, Gnolls.org

    I am not a med student - I'm just a 63 year old guy interested in interment fasting and how it works. I started to watch videos on this gluconeogenesis process and was stunned at the complexity. I though, "how could anyone remember this?!" But this one was so awesome it drew me in to continue listening to the explanation and to watch it again. I saw one video where another guy said, "3 or 4 enzymes were specially evolved for this process..." I thought, "is he crazy? That's not possible - it just happened?!" Anyhow, when you said, "God has provided another enzyme." It warmed my heart and made my day. Is it Zach? Thanks and whatever your name is, God Bless you. If there is no God - life doesn't mean a damn thing.

    Hey! Thank you so much! I'm a med student and these biochemistry and anatomy videos really helped a lot! By the way, I was taught that some aminoacids could not be converted into glucose. Those were the ones that were converted into Acetyl-CoA. Why? Because we would have to use one molecule of OAA to react with the Acetyl-CoA and then we would get one OAA. So I guess those aminoacids cannot undergo the gluconeogenesis process. This is what i was taguht, but I'm not sure since you didn't mention it! Thanks again so much

    • @NinjaNerdOfficial
      @NinjaNerdOfficial  6 ปีที่แล้ว +34

      +Andreia Filipa Lopes Sousa hello great question! Generally any amino acids specifically such as leucine, lysine and aromatic amino acids are converted to acetyl-CoA or acetoacetate. Due to this activity leucine, lysine, and aromatic amino acids are generally classified as ketogenic amino acids meaning they contribute to ketogenesis which is the formation of ketone bodies, however these same amino acids do have a very minor contribution to the Gluconeogenesis process!!! Hope that helps!!!

    Thank you so much for this explanation! It was perhaps the best I've seen in my search to understand this amazing process of gluconeogenesis.
    I have been doing a Keto way of eating for the last 3 years and I have lost 43 pounds and gained amazing health and all my markers are normal. In a keto context, the dietary carb restriction produces a change in the body that uses ketone bodies for fuel, and that includes the brain, whereas before carb restriction the brain was operating on glucose. However, the change is not to be feared as in the case of Type I Diabetes, where ketoacidosis is of major concern, as it should. The level of ketosis as measured in the blood of an individual who is adapted to burn fat as the main cell fuel is not at all in the danger area of ketoacidosis, as the level of ketosis in a keto context is at most around 5 milimolers. But since this is the energy the body is running on, often times the level is lower.
    I do think though that the whole process is "wonderful[ly] and fearfully" designed by God and I am so thankful for His wisdom and for your great explanation. :)

      The free phosphate exits via the T2 transporter; the glucose exits via the T3.

We are wonderfully and beautifully made. More complex than any human creation. We are not a result of random processes, but an intentional creator. God bless you in Jesus' name.
