Video lesson on the negative effects of ethanol on liver metabolism. Alcohol abuse can lead to toxic outcomes on the metabolism of the liver, including dysregulation of glycolysis, lactic acidosis, TCA cycle dysfunction, hypoglycemia, and hyperlipidemia, leading to fatty liver disease (hepatosteatosis). This lesson will explain why and how these toxic outcomes occur.

Hey everyone, in this lesson you will learn what the consequences of ethanol consumption and metabolism are on the functioning of important metabolic pathways in the liver. You will learn the stepbystep pathway by which alcohol metabolism and its metabolites alters metabolism and function of glycolysis, TCA cycle, gluconeogenesis, and fatty acid synthesis and oxidation.
