is the rate-limiting step and the following intermediate steps are taken place in the smooth endoplasmatic reticulum . PREG is either converted to 17α-hydroxypregnenolone (OH PREG) by the 17α-hydroxylase activity of CYP17A1 or converted to progesterone (PROG) by the enzyme 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD). PROG is further converted to 17α-hydroxyprogesterone (OH PROG) by the 17α-hydroxylase activity of CYP17A1‚ and OH PROG is also formed from OH PREG by 3β-HSD . PREG‚ OH PREG‚ PROG and

A calcium channel blocker will help Cecil’s high blood pressure‚ pulse‚ and respiration rate. A Gastrointestinal Endoscopy test will help see inside certain organs of the esophagus‚ stomach‚ and the duodenum (first part of the small intestine). This will help determine what exactly is causing Cecil’s stomach cramps and see if he has any stomach condition

two different types of endoplasmic reticulum; the smooth ER and the rough ER. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is plentiful in membrane bound enzymes (Koolman & Rohm‚ 2005). These enzymes catalyze incomplete reactions in lipid digestion and biotransformation (the chemical alteration of a substance within the body) (Koolman & Rohm‚ 2005). The smooth endoplasmic reticulum are the sections that have no ribosomes attached (Koolman & Rohm‚ 2005). The smooth ER can be found in both plant and animal cells

Crohn’s disease is a disease that can affect the entire gastrointestinal tract and can have vast negative effects on the body if not caught and treated properly. This gastrointestinal disease affects men and women equally but is found commonly in Caucasians and people of the Jewish-European decent. Crohn’s is also found more commonly in developed countries compared to undeveloped countries. The symptoms for this disease can occur at any age but are usually prevalent among 15 to 35 year olds.

LDH is a glycolytic enzyme which converts pyruvate to lactate in the following equation: LDH Pyruvate+ NADH ------------ Lactate + NAD The reaction above can move in both directions‚ forward (favored by Type II skeletal muscle) and reverse (favored by Type I skeletal muscle and the heart)

After many attempts and a century later‚ medical advances in technology has improved the upper gastrointestinal endoscopy procedure where little discomfort is experienced and the procedure is non-invasive. When performing a gastrointestinal endoscopy the following are taken into consideration: preparation for the exam‚ reasons for the exam‚ and risk factors of the exam. All upper gastrointestinal endoscopy exams are normally
