Name three enzymes and/or genes that you will evaluate in order to verify increased de novo lipogenesis in adipose tissue in response to CHO overfeeding and explain why pentose phosphate pathway may be important for this process.
Why “might” an obese animal require more vitamin D in their diet than an animal of moderate body condition? Please be sure to provide mechanistic explanations (e.g., storage, catabolic and anabolic processes) by which the vitamin D requirements would be increased.
