HY USMLE Q #383 – Biochemistry / Pharmacology — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00i had just recorded this clip and my
- 0:01microphone was [ __ ] up and it sounded
- 0:03terrible and now i have to record the
- 0:05whole [ __ ] clip uh so this is the
- 0:07deal guys
- 0:08this vignette hyper basic past level
- 0:12farm detail for step one and i combined
- 0:14it with difficult biochemistry stuff
- 0:16okay um step one is obviously pass fail
- 0:19now so enough of the theatrics okay i'll
- 0:22cut to the [ __ ] chase
- 0:23before we get started please subscribe
- 0:25my channel i really appreciate it give
- 0:26the video a like i really appreciate it
- 0:28find me on instagram melbourne
- 0:29underscore medical me hlm man underscore
- 0:31medical the link is down below find me
- 0:33on telegram recently create a telegram
- 0:34group and channel links are down below
- 0:35now let's start the [ __ ] question 34
- 0:38year old dude being treated for
- 0:39tuberculosis and he has three day
- 0:41history of paresthesias of his left arm
- 0:43questions asking about the vitamin
- 0:44deficiency and what it does
- 0:45biochemically
- 0:47you need to know as past level as it
- 0:48prefaced with that this is vitamin b6
- 0:50deficiency pyridoxine no [ __ ] excuses
- 0:53okay so isoniazid causes b6 deficiency
- 0:57and it can cause neuropathy non-specific
- 0:59okay paresthesias seizure that's our
- 1:01past level detail okay now we move into
- 1:03the harder biochemistry and there's
- 1:06theatrics but i'll cut to the chase so
- 1:09uh breakdown of odd chain fatty acids
- 1:11wrong [ __ ] answer i mean this would
- 1:12be for uh biotin as well as b12 so
- 1:15biotin's b7 as well as b12 uh chain
- 1:18fatty acids liberate not just acetyl
- 1:19coa's but also propional coe which via
- 1:22propional coa carboxylase and biotin
- 1:24goes to methylmalonyl coa which via b12
- 1:27and methylmalonyl coa mutase goes to
- 1:29succinyl coa all just a bunch of
- 1:31theatrics and horseshit okay like you
- 1:34don't need to know it now that step
- 1:35one's pass fail so we're just going to
- 1:37keep moving forward
- 1:38collagen synthesis wrong answer but very
- 1:40high yield for vitamin c deficiency okay
- 1:44extremely high yield so vitamin c is a
- 1:46cofactor for hydroxylase enzymes uh and
- 1:48you need that for collagen synthesis
- 1:50i've made other questions on the
- 1:52scurvy vitamin c deficiency peripheral
- 1:54hemorrhages bleeding gums echomoses very
- 1:57very very important okay for step one
- 2:00choice c wrong [ __ ] answer for
- 2:01gluconeogenesis now many uh enzymes
- 2:05cofactors involved of course but this
- 2:07would also be vitamin b7 biotin okay
- 2:09when we have pyruvate rather than moving
- 2:11forward into the krebs cycle we could uh
- 2:14bring pyruvate
- 2:15via pyruvate carboxylase and vitamin b7
- 2:18to oxaloacetate which then can go
- 2:20backwards via p pep carboxy kinase goes
- 2:23to phosphoenol pyruvate and then back up
- 2:25to glucose once again a bunch of
- 2:27theatrics and nonsense that you don't
- 2:29need to worry about now that you don't
- 2:30need to
- 2:31shoot for a high score in step one
- 2:35heme synthesis is our correct answer now
- 2:36look this is going to sound pedantic but
- 2:38i promise you it's not not about wasting
- 2:40your [ __ ] time you need to know the
- 2:42first step of heme synthesis
- 2:44requires vitamin b6 okay so succinyl coa
- 2:47plus glycine via b6 and delta ala
- 2:50synthase goes to delta ala sounds
- 2:52pedantic it's not it's all over the
- 2:54nbmes for step one okay including the
- 2:56offline forms
- 2:57and they also even what you know the
- 2:58substrates like i just said sucks no koi
- 3:00plus glycine
- 3:01they've asked succinyl coa as well they
- 3:03might give you a heme synthesis disorder
- 3:05such as acute intermittent porphyria or
- 3:06prophylocutaneatarta
- 3:08and then they have uh suck they'll say
- 3:10like which the following is required and
- 3:12the answer could be b6 so the answer
- 3:13could be succinyl coli or the answer
- 3:14could be glycine okay very [ __ ]
- 3:16important that you know that
- 3:18krebs cycle wrong [ __ ] answer i mean
- 3:20this could be
- 3:21uh pyruvate dehydrogenase when we bring
- 3:24pyruvate uh to uh acetyl coa requires b1
- 3:28b2 b3 b5 lipoic acid uh also succinate
- 3:32goes to fumarate requires b2 a bunch of
- 3:34horseshit a bunch of nonsense uh you
- 3:37don't need to know this anymore okay
- 3:38it's not our [ __ ] opinion i mean it's
- 3:40not i mean the us emily decided they
- 3:42wanted a past failed exam so now
- 3:44students don't need to know any
- 3:45biochemistry apart from some general
- 3:47stuff like heme synthesis requires b6
- 3:49collagen since this requires vitamin c
- 3:52you know the deal i'm going to continue
- 3:53to make more content if you like my
- 3:54stuff subscribe my channel
- 3:56and i appreciate your time that's it
