Alcohol Toxicity | Toxic Effects of Ethanol on Liver Metabolism (Metabolic Consequences)

The video explains the metabolic consequences of ethanol metabolism, focusing on how it increases NADH and acetyl CoA levels, leading to dysregulation in glycolysis, lactic acidosis, suppression of the TCA cycle, and gluconeogenesis. It also discusses the impact on fatty acid oxidation and synthesis, resulting in triglyceride accumulation and fatty liver disease. The video concludes with a call to action for viewers to engage with more content.

What are the consequences of high NADH levels on gluconeogenesis?

What systemic effects can result from the reduction in gluconeogenesis due to ethanol metabolism?

Describe the relationship between ethanol metabolism and fatty acid oxidation.
