Chapter 9.2, Problem 2R
Summary Introduction

To review:

The role played by pyruvate oxidation in the citric acid cycle (CAC).

Introduction:

Glucose is the readily available molecule for energy in the cells. It undergoes a number of steps in its breakdown, which ultimately releases energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The first step is glycolysis in which glucose is converted into pyruvate.

Glitazones reduce insulin resistance by binding to a transcription factor in adipocytes, thereby reducing thesecretion of fatty acids. Glitazones are taken orally (in pill form). Using pharmacokinetic modeling, deriveequations to describe how the concentration of glitazones varies in the plasma as a function of time. Yourequations should be of the form: dCglitazone /dt = something, or dMglitazone /dt = something. Your model shouldinclude three compartments: the gut, the plasma, and the fatty tissues. Make sure to include a diagram thatillustrates your thinking, state all assumptions, and define your variables. Do not solve the equations.
