  2. Cori cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cori_cycle

    Cori cycle. The Cori cycle (also known as the lactic acid cycle), named after its discoverers, Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori, [1] is a metabolic pathway in which lactate, produced by anaerobic glycolysis in muscles, is transported to the liver and converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is cyclically metabolized back to lactate.

  3. Two-factor models of personality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-factor_models_of...

    (The "Wanted behavior" scale is generally renamed "Responsive behavior"). The moderate scores mixed with high or low are designated "Phlegmatic blends" and divided with 4 being a blend of Phlegmatic with the lower adjacent temperament, and 5 being a blend with the higher adjacent temperament. This results in 13 separate ranges in each area.

  4. Pyruvate carboxylase deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyruvate_carboxylase...

    By generating oxaloacetate, it catalyses an important anaplerotic reaction that maintains the citric acid cycle to generate energy by aerobic respiration. [4] Pyruvate carboxylase also plays a role in the formation of the myelin sheath that surrounds certain nerve cells, and the production of neurotransmitters for communication between neurons .

  5. Anaerobic glycolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_glycolysis

    The anaerobic glycolysis (lactic acid) system is dominant from about 10–30 seconds during a maximal effort. It produces 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule, [3] or about 5% of glucose's energy potential (38 ATP molecules). [4] [5] The speed at which ATP is produced is about 100 times that of oxidative phosphorylation. [1]

  6. Personality Assessment System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personality_Assessment_System

    The Personality Assessment System (PAS) is a descriptive model of personality formulated by John W. Gittinger. The system has been used by scientists in studying personality and by clinicians in clinical practice. A major feature of the PAS is that a personality profile can be systematically interpreted from a set of Wechsler Scales subtest ...

  7. Lactate dehydrogenase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactate_dehydrogenase

    Reaction catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase. Lactate dehydrogenase catalyzes the interconversion of pyruvate and lactate with concomitant interconversion of NADH and NAD +.It converts pyruvate, the final product of glycolysis, to lactate when oxygen is absent or in short supply, and it performs the reverse reaction during the Cori cycle in the liver.

  8. Lactic acidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactic_acidosis

    Undissociated lactic acid can cross the rumen wall to the blood, [29] where it dissociates, lowering blood pH. Both L and D isomers of lactic acid are produced in the rumen; [24] these isomers are metabolized by different metabolic pathways, and activity of the principal enzyme involved in metabolism of the D isomer declines greatly with lower ...

  9. Lactate shuttle hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactate_shuttle_hypothesis

    In addition to Cori Cycle, the lactate shuttle hypothesis proposes complementary functions of lactate in multiple tissues. Contrary to the long-held belief that lactate is formed as a result of oxygen-limited metabolism, substantial evidence exists that suggests lactate is formed under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, as a result of substrate supply and equilibrium dynamics.
