State the effects of the hormones on lipogenesis?
As widely known, hormones control body metabolism. Although nutritional status and homones profile will influence lipogenesis rate, for simpliticy, insulin action along with glucose availability may be taken as master controlers in lipogenesis. These two factors signal cells by switching on and off AMPk-dependent processes, for exemple: low glucose and insulin levels will activate AMPk, which in turns inhbits energy-requiring processes and stimulates energy-releasing processes - in this case, lipogenesis will be switched off.

What hormone stimulates lipogenesis?
The following hormones induce lipolysis: epinephrine, norepinephrine, ghrelin, growth hormone, testosterone, and cortisol.
What will happen if a non diabetic takes insulin?
The insulin will stimulate the formation of glycogen, which will lower your blood sugar
Is insulin a steroid hormone?
Insulin is an anabolic hormone as: 1) it promotes glycogen synthesis & inhibits glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in carbohydrates. 2) it promotes lipogenesis & inhibits lipolysis. 3) promotes protein synthesis & inhibits protein degradation
During the conversion of glycogen to glucose hormones are secreted to stimulate the secretion and they are?
Glucagons and insulin
Is lipogenesis a postabsorptive state reaction?
no
What does lipogenesis generally begin with?
Acetyl-CoA
Why insulin is so vital for normal survival?
I think it's because it helps to stimulate our immune system.
Does caffeine turn into sugar?
No, it does stimulate the release of insulin, which burns available sugars in the body.
What is insulin's functions?
The major function of insulin is to counter the concerted action of a number of hyperglycemia-generating hormones and to maintain low blood glucose levels. In addition to its role in regulating glucose metabolism, insulin stimulates lipogenesis, diminishes lipolysis, and increases amino acid transport into cells. Insulin also modulates transcription, altering the cell content of numerous mRNAs. It stimulates growth, DNA synthesis, and cell replication, effects that it holds in common with the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and relaxin.
What Hormone works with growth hormone to stimulate osteoblasts?
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)
Where are the islets located in the body?
The islets of Langerhans are located in the pancreas and they secrete insulin, which stimulate the cells to absorb glucose in the bloodstream (lowering blood sugar).
