Please select all of the following processes that would INCREASE during untreated or badly managed diabetic ketoacidosis: (More than 1 answer)
1) there is fluid and electrolyte loss in urine
2) plasma pH
3) Glucose uptake & skeletal muscle using as primary fuel
4) Bicarbonate reabsorption & renal Hydrogen excretion

6) Gluconeogenesis, Fatty acid oxidation, & ketogenesis (all within the liver)
7) Lipolysis & fatty acid release from adipose
What is the relationship of glucose urine and glucose carrier protein. Pls explain in the context of diabetic patient.
Describe one mechanism that leads to continued gluconeogenesis in the liver of T1DM patients, despite already high levels of glucose in the bloodstream.

- 2.2. Empagliflozin is an anti-diabetic medication used to improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes. Empagliflozin works by inhibiting the sodium- glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) found in the proximal tubules in the kidneys. Through SGLT2 inhibition, empagliflozin reduces renal reabsorption of glucose and increases urinary excretion of glucose. 2.2.2. Describe how the sodium-glucose co-transporter achieves its function at the molecular level. 2.2.3. Evaluate how the inhibition of SGLT-2 by Empagliflozin will affect the activity of the sodium-potassium pump. 3.1. Under normal physiological conditions, proto-oncogenes and tumour suppressors help control cell growth and proliferation. When mutated, these proteins contribute to the development of cancer.
