Gluconeogenesis糖异生（1次）
The glucose or glycogen molecules can be produced in liver from non-carbohydrate such as lactate, pyruvte, amino acid and glycerol largely through reverse pathway of glycolysis .This pathway is called…..
The main site of gluconeogenesis is liver (90%). Kidney provide 10% of newly synthesized glucose molecules.
substrate-level phosphorylation （0次）
The transfer of the high-energy phosphoryl group of high- energy substrate (eg. glycerate-1,3-bisphosphate) to ADP, then ATP is formed.
The corti cycle（1次）
Cori cycle is a mechanism for meeting the glucose needs at exercise. Muscles at work produce lactate from glycolysis when oxygen becomes limiting. Lactate is transported from the muscles to the liver via the bloodstream. In the liver, lactate is converted (gluconeogenesis) back to glucose, where it is dumped back into the bloodstream for transport to muscle.
Mobilization of triacylglycerol（1次）
Triacylglycerols stored in adipose tissue are hydrolyzed, the products glycerol and fatty acid are transported to the tissues, in which fatty acids can be oxidized for energy production. The principal enzyme in mobilizing stored fat is triglyceride lipase, which is hormone-sensitive TG lipase(HSL).
b-Oxidation of fatty acids（5次）
In the matrix of mitochondrion, fatty acyl-CoAs
are oxidized in a series of cycles that each cycle
release two carbons from the carboxyl in the form of acetyl-CoA. Each cycle involves four reactions-dehydrogenation, hydration, dehydrogenation, and thiolytic cleavage.
Ketone body（0次）
Ketone bodies include acetoacetate, acetone, and β-hydroxybutyrate. They are intermediates of FA oxidation, formed in mitochondria of liver and exported to extrahepatic tissues to be oxidized and utilized.
Overproduction results in ketoacidosis
Biological oxidation（0次）
The oxidation taking place in organism is termed biological oxidation. It mainly refers to the enzymatic steps in the oxidative degradation of carbohydrates, fats, and amino acids to CO2 , H2O and energy. Some of the energy is used for the generation of ATP from ADP and Pi, and the other is released as heat energy.
Respiratory chain （0次）
(electron transfer chain)
Definition:
The mitochondrial respiratory chain consists of a series of enzymes with prosthetic groups capable of accepting and donating either one or two electrons, most of which are membrane-bonded proteins.

Most of the producer of the putrefaction of protein are harmful to human beings, for example: amine, ammonia, phenol, indole and sulfureted hydrogen.
alanine - glucose cycle: （1次）
anima acids in human being’s muscles transfer their amino groups to pyruvic acid and form alanine through transamination. Then alanine come into blood and is transported to the liver. In the liver alanine put off amino group which is used to compose urea The other producer pyruvic acid is converted to glucose which can be transported to the muscle through blood. In the muscle, glucose is converted to pyruvic acid through glycolytic pathway, which again can accept amino group to form alanine. This cycle is called alanine-glucose cycle. The significances of Glucose-alanine cycle include：
1. To transport ammonia in the nontoxicv forms of alanine from muscles to liver.
2. To regulate blood glucosev indirectly and to supply available pyruvate for muscles.
