    1. Metabolic fuel
      1. Elucidation of metabolic pathways
          1. ARE DERIVED FROM
            1. -Carbohydrates- Fats -Proteins
              1. Oxidation
                1. synthesis
                  1. ATP
            2. The study of this metabolism is allowed to characterize many diseases where cell function is working poorly
              1. Thanks to this has been able to explain some clinical and pathological situations where enzymes play an important role for organs and tissues
                1. The illness + Metabolic
                  1. In 1908 Archibald Garrod
                      1. Determined the diagnosis on diseases caused by absence of enzymes
                        1. Brings serious consequences like phenylketonuria, affects 1 of every 10000 humans
                          1. Diagnosis of an inherited metabolic disorder may involve measuring the activity of a given enzyme in a sample taken from accessible tissue such as blood cells
                            1. In the metabolic pathway shown in Scheme 1, product X is synthesized from substrate A by a series of enzyme catalyzed reactions. Furthermore, A can be metabolized to Z by a minor route, so that usually only a small amount of Z
                2. Jaundice
                  1. is due toExcessive amount of bilirubin
                    1. Macrophages phagocytes Metabolizes hemoglobin and forms bilirubin
                      1. If it rises to 0.5 mm or more it is jaundice
                        1. Frequent in bone marrow,
                            1. Spleen
                              1. Liver
                                  1. Import metabolic reaction catalyzed by a specific transferase enzyme
                          1. Skin and whites of the eyes turn yellowish A newborn can present the symptoms of this disease since the enzyme transferase does not develop from birth
                        2. FREE RADICALS
                          1. Decompose pathogens and kill foreign organisms
                            1. Molecular entities containing unpaired electrons which makes them reactive This unpaired electron makes the molecule a reactive species Can be stabilized by donating or removing electrons from other molecules New radicals are generated and thus a chain reaction is made
                                1. Causal agent of diseases such as
                                  1. Cancer
                                    1. inflamatory bowel disease

                                          1. parkinson’s and disease rheumatoid arthritis
                                            1. Macrophages, neutrophils, monocytes are phagocytic cells which are involved in inflammation and infection Use free radicals as part of the body's defense mechanism The high activity of these free extracellularly free radicals and cause tissue injury
                                              1. Highly reactive hydroxyl (OH)
                                                1. Attacks biological molecules and initiates chain reactions and damages cell membranes and DNA thus increasing the risk of developing cáncer
                                                2. Superoxide (O) less toxic and are generated by metabolic reactions
                                                  1. Involve electron-controlled motion So The mitochondria reduces the oxygen through the chain of transport of electrons of the water which is made through the action of an enzyme

                                                    1. Cells and tissues have a number of protective mechanisms to combat free radicals and eliminate them called the antioxidant defense system
                                                      1. Can restrict the damage of these to the cells it is claimed that antioxidants can cure such diseases
                                                      2. Glutathione (GSH) protects proteins and membranes against free radical attack
