    muscle metabolism Skeletal muscle is the major tissue responsible for glutamine synthesis in the body [9‚10]. In this context‚ glutamine anabolic effects in the skeletal muscle not only preserve lean mass‚ but also maintain plasma glutamine concentration in the body. Glutamine provides energy substrate to cells with a high turnover‚ nucleic acid precursors to cells of the immune system and is involved in the maintenance of acid-base balance [9‚ 11‚ 12]. The key enzymes in the metabolism of glutamine

    Microbial metabolism is the means by which a microbe obtains the energy and nutrients (e.g. carbon) it needs to live and reproduce. Microbes use many different types of metabolic strategies and species can often be differentiated from each other based on metabolic characteristics. The specific metabolic properties of a microbe are the major factors in determining that microbe’s ecological niche‚ and often allow for that microbe to be useful in industrial processes or responsible for biogeochemical

    Simply put‚ metabolism is the process of breaking down proteins‚ carbohydrates‚ and fats to yield the energy your body needs to maintain itself. The rate of your metabolism depends on the interaction between the number of calories you consume‚ the number of calories you burn while eating and exercising‚ and the calories you burn based on your individual genetic makeup. How can you increase your metabolism? Well‚ there’s not much you can do about your genes (they only account for a measly 5% of

    organisms to grow and reproduce‚ maintain their structures‚ and respond to their environments. The word metabolism can also refer to all chemical reactions that occur in living organisms‚ including digestion and the transport of substances into and between different cells‚ in which case the set of reactions within the cells is called intermediary metabolism or intermediate metabolism. Metabolism is usually divided into two categories. Catabolism breaks down organic matter‚ for example to harvest

    When you hear metabolism the first thing you might think of is the number of calories your cells burn each day. Metabolism is actually the sum of all chemical reactions that take place in the body. Metabolic reactions that produce energy are dependent on the cardiovascular system‚ which send oxygen to all the cells in your body. Although metabolism is not primarily made of reactions that burn nutrients like carbohydrates‚ fats and protein‚ these are perhaps the most widely known of the metabolic
