Metabolic Regulation in Mammals presents the basic principles of metabolic control, based on investigations conducted during the past twenty years. It explains the impact of recent advances in cell biology, molecular biology and genetics on the field. Beginning with the basic concepts, this text covers all angles of metabolic regulation, including blood caloric homeostasis, cardiac and skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and liver metabolism. Review questions, summary sections and worked examples help break down the complexity of the subject and allow the reader to review the principles and concepts presented. Details of metabolic pathways are provided for each body system, with accompanying charts to provide the reader with an overall perspective. This text is ideal for undergraduates across a range of biological and health science disciplines, particularly those taking one or two semester courses in metabolic regulation.

Abstract: Basic biochemical principles of the regulation of metabolism are presented. Mechanisms that govern intracellular reactions in mammals which have evolved for metabolic control and fundamental theorems of theoretical biology and nonequilibrium thermodynamics are reviewed. Regulatory mechanisms of noncovalent forces, interactions with water, enzyme activity and degradation, coenzymes, protein biosynthesis, DNA replication, phospholipid-protein interactions, membrane structure, membrane-bound enzymes, transport systems, secretion and hormones are discussed. The role of compartmentation in metabolic regulation is also described. A final chapter examines the biochemical basis of disease.

In this volume, the subject of metabolic regulation is placed in a human context. The components of food are followed as they are processed from ingestion through digestion and absorption to their distribution to the tissues, storage and mobilization and ultimate oxidation. The way in which these processes are regulated by the endocrine and nervous systems is described, as well as the metabolic adjustments necessitated by extreme conditions such as fasting and strenuous exercise.

Functional Metabolism of Cells is the first comprehensive survey of metabolism, offering an in-depth examination of metabolism and regulation of carbohydrates, lipids, and amino acids. It provides a basic background on metabolic regulation and adaptation as well as the chemical logic of metabolism, and covers the interrelationship of metabolism to life processes of the whole organism. The book lays out a structured approach to the metabolic basis of disease, including discussion of the normal pathways of metabolism, altered pathways leading to disease, and use of molecular genetics in diagnosis and treatment of disease. It also takes a unique comparative approach in which human metabolism is a reference for metabolism in microorganisms and plant design, and presents novel coverage of development and aging, and human health and animal adaptation. The final chapter reviews the past and future promise of new genetic approaches to treatment and bioinformatics. This, the most exhaustive treatment of metabolism currently available, is a useful text for advanced undergraduates and graduates in biochemistry, cell/molecular biology, and biomedicine, as well as biochemistry instructors and investigators in related fields.
