Researchers tend to favor small lipophilic molecules when designing new therapeutic drugs. Which of the following provides sound rationale for this approach? small lipophilic molecules form hydrogen bonds with water so they can be carried across membranes as water diffuses. small lipophillic molecules can easily cross membranes and enter the body small lipophilic molecules are substrates for transporters small lipophilic molecules are charged and can easily cross membranes and enter the body

The active drug substance given above contains a carboxylic acid group. Ionizable proton of carboxylic acid (circled in red taken), the pKa value is given as 3.5. This drug must be absorbed through the plasma membrane to pass. The speed of passage through the plasma membrane depends on the polarity of the molecule. Charged and polar molecules are slower than the membrane, neutral and hydrophobic molecules pass more rapidly. Your stomach Its pH is about 1.5 and the pH of the small intestine is about 6.0. whether this drug passes through the stomach or small intestine more into the blood. you wait Explain. In order to get full points, the ionic molecule in the stomach and intestines Compare them in terms of charge and polarity, indicating their state.
"The following describe lipoprotein organization, classification & function, EXCEPT: " Each type of lipoprotein has a characteristic apoprotein necessary for the transport and metabolism of the lipid inside "Lipid content is less than protein thus, the higher the % TAG the less dense the lipoprotein" The amount of cholesterol and cholesteryl ester increases as lipoprotein density decreases "Chylomicrons and VLDL transport dietary and biosynthesized lipids to the peripheral tissues, respectively"
How does cholestrol affect membrane fluidity? 1- it tends to increase the fluidity 2- it doesn't have any specific effect on fluidity 3- membranes doesn't have cholesterol 4- it tends to decrease the fluidity
Which one of the following is found on cells that line the capillary wall of blood vessels adjacent to adipose tissue or muscle tissue that promotes release of fatty acids (FAs) from dietary triacylglycerols (TAGs) via hydrolysis? Chylomicrons Serum Albumin Bile Salts (Bile Acids) Prostaglandins Lipoprotein Lipase
Cholesterol that is made by the liver or that enters the body from food does not dissolve in blood, so it is carried through the bloodstream by lipoproteins. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) carries cholesterol to body tissues such as artery walls, where it can form deposits associated with cardiovascular disease. Thus, LDL is often called "bad" cholesterol. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) carries cholesterol away from tissues to the liver for disposal, so HDL is often called "good" cholesterol. LDL levels were highest in the diet containing primarily ______. A. cis fatty acids B. saturated fats C. trans fatty acids
Lipolysaccharides in Gram negative cell walls that stimulates the body to release chemicals that cause fever, inflammation, diarrhea, hemorrhaging, shock, and blood coagulation are called.
To determine:The four types of lipids that would be present on the outside of a lipoprotein clump, bathed in the water-based fluid portion of blood.Introduction:The structure of lipoproteins is very complex. The core of the lipoproteins is made up of triglyceride, so it is hydrophobic, and cholesterol and phospholipids surround the hydrophobic core of this molecule. So, it is basically made up of lipids and amino acids.
Essential oils are fat soluble and attracted to lipids and are, therefore, considered: Choose one answer. a. oleophobic b. hydrophilic c. lipophilic d. amphiphilic
Which of the following is an antioxidant? Vitamin E Glucose Cholesterol Palmitic acid Vicine
Which of the following components are found in lipoproteins? Choose all that apply a. DNA b. Cholesterol c. Triglycerides d. Proteins e.
Which of the following is TRUE? The substrate for lipase is fatty acids When lipase is present and active it hydrolyzes triglycerides When triglycerides are hydrolyzed the pH would be elevated All of the above None of the above
