5. Amino acid methionine is used as medicine due to its lipotropic effect («removes» fat excess from the liver) in initial stages of liver eirrhosis, toxic liver lesions, and chronic alcoholism. Methionine treatment reduces cholesterol contents in blood and inereases the level of phospholipids. What are mechanisms of the therapeutic effect of methionine? For the answer. a) specify methionine functions in the human body: b) write down the reaction of methionine activation; c) name particles which are formed to transport synthesized lipids from the liver into the blood and then to tissues; describe their composition and metabolism; d) point out the compound, which is necessary to build chosen lipid transport forms. Specify the role of methionine in its synthesis. Present an appropriate scheme; c) specify, which particles have antiatherogenic activity and reduce the risk of atherosclerosis development.

Transcribed Image Text:5. Amino acid methionine is used as medicine due to its lipotropic effect («removes
fat excess from the liver) in initial stages of liver cirrhosis, toxic liver lesions,
and chronic alcoholism. Methionine treatment reduces cholesterol contents
in blood and inereases the level of phospholipids. What are mechanisms of the
therapeutic effeet of methionine? For the answer:
a) specify methionine functions in the human body;
b) write down the reaction of methionine activation;
c) name particles which are formed to transport synthesized lipids from the liver
into the blood and then to tissues; describe their composition and metabolism;
d) point out the compound, which is necessary to build chosen lipid transport
forms. Specify the role of methionine in its synthesis. Present an appropriate
scheme;
e) specify, which particles have antiatherogenic activity and reduce the risk of
atherosclerosis development.
