SUMMARY
Glucose and ketone_bodies are the two major sources of nutrients for cells. The production of ketone_bodies in the liver requires the mobilization of lipid stores; catabolic hormones trigger lipolysis, which provides fatty_acids. Normal liver is ketogenic, converting acetyl-CoA into ketone_bodies; no ketolysis takes place in normal liver, which releases 2 of 13 ketone_bodies such as beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) in the blood. The acetyl-CoA coming from ketone_bodies feeds the ketolytic entry into the citric_acid_cycle. In fasting, the mobilization of tissue reserves supports the energetic and metabolic demands of active mitotic tissues through the . . .
