The flux of glucose carbon to total body fatty acids was measured in unanesthetized mice either after fasting or 50-80 min after they nibbled a small test meal containing 120 mg of glucose (fasted-refed). Flux was calculated from plasma [(14)C]glucose specific activity curves and from total body (14)C-labeled fatty acid 30 min after intravenous injection of tracer [(14)C]glucose. Mobilization of liver glycogen, changes in the body glucose pool size, and total flux of carbon through the glucose pool during periods of fasting and refeeding were defined. Liver glycogen was almost completely depleted 8 hr after food removal. Body glucose pool size fell during fasting and increased after refeeding the test meal. Irreversible disposal rate of glucose C varied directly with body glucose pool size; but flux of glucose C into fatty acids increased exponentially as body glucose concentration increased. Within an hour after nibbling a small test meal, the flux of glucose C into total body fatty acids increased 700% in mice previously starved for 24 hr. However, flux of glucose C into fatty acids in postabsorptive mice (food removed for 2 hr; livers rich in glycogen) was only about 2% of the value calculated from published studies in which the incorporation of an intubated [(14)C]glucose load into total body fatty acid was measured in mice. A possible explanation for this phenomenon is presented. 相似文献

Effects of high beef tallow (BT), high corn oil (CO) or low-fat (LF) diets upon the outcome of genetic obesity were investigated. Diets were instituted ad libitum at the time of weaning. When mice were six months of age, blood samples were taken 1, 5, 15, 30, and 60 minutes after intravenous injection of glucose-U-14C. Within dietary treatments, obese and lean mice showed similar plasma glucose-U-14C disappearance patterns. Plasma glucose disappearance always tended to be faster in ad libitum-fed mice relative to 24-hour fasted mice. Body glucose pool sizes tended to be larger in fed obese BT and LF mice compared to their lean counterparts. This pattern was not seen in non-fasted CO mice. Fasting caused a decrease in body glucose pool sizes in all mice. In contrast to CO and LF mice, lean BT mice appeared to conserve glucose during fasting the same as the obese line. Since the glucose disappearance curves can be described by a two-exponential decay function, at least a two-component or two-pool system must be involved in plasma glucose turnover. Calculated rate constants were used to express interchanges of carbon molecules between the glucose and glycogen pool and the net movement of glucose carbon to a carbon pool representing “irreversible end products”. The data indicate that differences in glucose metabolism, in part, explain the possibility that dietary energy source can overcome the genetic tendency to leanness. 相似文献

We have attempted to estimate the flux of glucose carbon to total body fatty acids and to other metabolic end products in Bar Harbor 129/J mice fasted 5-8 hr. Tracer [U-(14)C]glucose was injected intravenously, and the following data were obtained at various times up to 180 min: plasma glucose C specific activity, plasma glucose concentration, total body glycogen, and (14)C in total body fatty acid, total body lipid, unsaponifiable lipid, expired CO(2), and in hepatic and extrahepatic glycogen. The data were analyzed by three techniques, namely, multicompartmental, semicompartmental, and noncompartmental analyses. All three methods yielded comparable rates of glucose C conversion to total body fatty acids (2-3 micro g of glucose C/min/20 g of body weight). Although the semicompartmental approach is extremely simple (it only requires analyses of plasma glucose specific activity as a function of time and (14)C-labeled fatty acid at one point in time), it gives an apparently valid approximation for the flux of glucose C to fatty acids. Other quantitative aspects of glucose metabolism in postabsorptive mice are also considered. 相似文献

The present study assessed the effect of different fasting times on the in vitro gluconeogenic capacity of Chasmagnathus granulata crabs previously adapted to a high-protein (HP) or carbohydrate-rich (HC) diet using the incorporation of [U-(14)C]l-lactate or [U-(14)C]l-alanine into glucose. We also recorded haemolymphatic glucose and hepatopancreatic glycogen levels. In the HP group, on the third day of fasting there were decreases in the synthesis of glucose from (14)C-alanine and in haemolymph glucose. After 15 days of fasting, haemolymph glucose and hepatopancreatic glycogen levels were maintained by an increase in the conversion of (14)C-alanine into glucose. However, after 21 days of fasting the gluconeogenic capacity was decreased and hepatopancreas glycogen concentration was reduced. In the HC group, hepatopancreatic glycogen was the energy source during the first 6 days of fasting. Gluconeogenesis from (14)C-lactate decreased after 6 days of fasting, remaining low until 21 days of fasting. The conversion of (14)C-alanine into glucose was increased after 15 days fasting and hepatopancreatic glycogen was raised in relation to that present after a 6-day fasting. In both dietary groups the stabilization in the levels of haemolymph glucose after 21 days fasting may result from a reduction in metabolic rate during restricted feeding. 相似文献

Transport and metabolism of D-glucose in human adipocytes. Studies of the dependence on medium glucose and insulin concentrations 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Uptake and metabolism of the physiologically labelled D-glucose (D-[U-14C]glucose) has been characterized in human adipocytes at several unlabelled D-glucose concentrations in the absence and presence of insulin. Following a 90 min incubation, about 80% of the intracellular radioactivity was incorporated into total lipids at tracer glucose concentration, as well as at higher glucose concentrations in basal and insulin-stimulated cells, whereas 20% was recovered as hydrophilic metabolites. The only 14C-labelled metabolite escaping the cells in detectable amounts was CO2, which accounted about 4%. At trace glucose concentrations (5 mumol/l), the rate of glucose uptake was linear with time. Comparative studies of initial glucose uptake after 10 s and tracer D-glucose conversion to total lipids after 90 min showed high coefficients of correlation between basal rates (r = 0.87), maximal response above basal level to insulin (r = 0.92) and insulin sensitivity (r = 0.78). Thus, under these conditions glucose transport is rate-limiting for net glucose uptake, and measurements over long time intervals of rates for total cell-associated radioactivity or lipogenesis may serve as reliable estimates of initial glucose influx rates. However, the conversion rate of tracer glucose to metabolites decreased progressively with the glucose concentration and with an apparent Km of about 0.2 mmol/l. The three metabolic pathways exhibited similar percentage decreases in their activities, suggesting that a common enzymatic step is rate-limiting. In comparison, the Km for initial D-glucose uptake rate was about 7 mmol/l. Hence, the capacity for total glucose metabolism comprised only a small fraction of the glucose transport capacity at medium glucose concentrations above tracer concentrations. Both basal, half-maximal and maximal insulin-stimulated rates of adipocyte glucose utilization were dependent on the glucose concentration. Thus, comparing lipogenesis at tracer and at 0.5 mmol/l medium glucose concentration, it was shown that the higher medium glucose concentration was associated with a 60% lowering of the basal rate, a 35% reduction in the percentage response above baseline to maximal insulin stimulation and a 4-fold increase in the insulin sensitivity. Obviously, these findings reflect some intracellular step(s) being rate-limiting at medium glucose levels above tracer values. 相似文献

The carbon balance was determined for a fermentation in which mannitol is produced from glucose by an Aspergillus species. The products found were: cells (17% of carbon input), CO(2) (26%), mannitol (35%), glycerol (10%), erythritol (2.5%), glycogen (1%), and unidentified compounds (8%). Thus, 92% of the carbon input was accounted for. Cell-free enzyme studies showed that mannitol was synthesized via the reduction of fructose-6-phosphate and not by the direct reduction of fructose. If the cell yield from glucose was assumed to be 50% and the theoretical conversion efficiency from glucose to polyols was 90%, as calculated from the energy balance, then 34% of the glucose carbon was used for growth and 53% was used for polyol formation. 相似文献

We varied rates of glucose transport and glycogen synthase I (GS-I) activity (%GS-I) in isolated rat epitrochlearis muscle to examine the role of each process in determining the rate of glycogen accumulation. %GS-I was maintained at or above the fasting basal range during 3 h of incubation with 36 mM glucose and 60 microU/ml insulin. Lithium (2 mM LiCl) added to insulin increased glucose transport rate and muscle glycogen content compared with insulin alone. The glycogen synthase kinase-3beta inhibitor GF-109203 x (GF; 10 microM) maintained %GS-I about twofold higher than insulin with or without lithium but did not increase glycogen accumulation. When %GS-I was lowered below the fasting range by prolonged incubation with 36 mM glucose and 2 mU/ml insulin, raising rates of glucose transport with bpV(phen) or of %GS-I with GF produced additive increases in glycogen concentration. Phosphorylase activity was unaffected by GF or bpV(phen). In muscles of fed animals, %GS-I was approximately 30% lower than in those of fasted rats, and insulin-stimulated glycogen accumulation did not occur unless %GS-I was raised with GF. We conclude that the rate of glucose transport is rate limiting for glycogen accumulation unless %GS-I is below the fasting range, in which case both glucose transport rate and GS activity can limit glycogen accumulation. 相似文献

The red-toothed shrews (genus Sorex) are one of the smallest mammals. The amount of food they consume a day exceeds their own weight, and without food they can survive for only few hours. Representatives of this genus have extremely high metabolic rates. This study addressed the effect of 8-h fasting and 13-h refeeding on the body weight, blood glucose level, liver glycogen and lipid levels, and relative weight of inguinal and interscapular adipose tissues in the even-toothed shrews (S. isodon). Fasting led to a decrease in the body weight, blood glucose and liver glycogen levels. The relative weight of adipose tissue also decreased, while the liver lipid level increased significantly. After refeeding, blood glucose and liver glycogen levels were considerably higher than in control, while other parameters remained almost the same as in control. Physiological response to fasting develops in S. isodon quite rapidly, promoted by the high metabolic rate. 相似文献

The effect of increased glycogenolysis, simulated by galactose's conversion to glucose, on the contribution of gluconeogenesis (GNG) to hepatic glucose production (GP) was determined. The conversion of galactose to glucose is by the same pathway as glycogen's conversion to glucose, i.e., glucose 1-phosphate --> glucose 6-phosphate --> glucose. Healthy men (n = 7) were fasted for 44 h. At 40 h, hepatic glycogen stores were depleted. GNG then contributed approximately 90% to a GP of approximately 8 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1). Galactose, 9 g/h, was infused over the next 4 h. The contribution of GNG to GP declined from approximately 90% to 65%, i.e., by approximately 2 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1). The rate of galactose conversion to blood glucose, measured by labeling the infused galactose with [1-(2)H]galactose (n = 4), was also approximately 2 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1). The 41st h GP rose by approximately 1.5 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1) and then returned to approximately 9 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1), while plasma glucose concentration increased from approximately 4.5 to 5.3 mM, accompanied by a rise in plasma insulin concentration. Over 50% of the galactose infused was accounted for in blood glucose and hepatic glycogen formation. Thus an increase in the rate of GP via the glycogenolytic pathway resulted in a concomitant decrease in the rate of GP via GNG. While the compensatory response to the galactose administration was not complete, since GP increased, hepatic autoregulation is operative in healthy humans during prolonged fasting. 相似文献

To examine the mechanism by which muscle glycogen limits its own synthesis, muscle glycogen and glucose 6-phosphate (G-6-P) concentrations were measured in seven healthy volunteers during a euglycemic ( approximately 5.5 mM)-hyperinsulinemic ( approximately 450 pM) clamp using (13)C/(31)P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy before and after a muscle glycogen loading protocol. Rates of glycogen synthase (V(syn)) and phosphorylase (V(phos)) flux were estimated during a [1-(13)C]glucose (pulse)-unlabeled glucose (chase) infusion. The muscle glycogen loading protocol resulted in a 65% increase in muscle glycogen content that was associated with a twofold increase in fasting plasma lactate concentrations (P < 0.05 vs. basal) and an approximately 30% decrease in plasma free fatty acid concentrations (P < 0.001 vs. basal). Muscle glycogen loading resulted in an approximately 30% decrease in the insulin-stimulated rate of net muscle glycogen synthesis (P < 0.05 vs. basal), which was associated with a twofold increase in intramuscular G-6-P concentration (P < 0.05 vs. basal). Muscle glycogen loading also resulted in an approximately 30% increase in whole body glucose oxidation rates (P < 0.05 vs. basal), whereas there was no effect on insulin-stimulated rates of whole body glucose uptake ( approximately 10.5 mg. kg body wt(-1). min(-1) for both clamps) or glycogen turnover (V(syn)/V(phos) was approximately 23% for both clamps). In conclusion, these data are consistent with the hypothesis that glycogen limits its own synthesis through feedback inhibition of glycogen synthase activity, as reflected by an accumulation of intramuscular G-6-P, which is then shunted into aerobic and anaerobic glycolysis. 相似文献

Fasting of second-day fifth instar larval Manduca sexta leads to a rapid decrease in hemolymph glucose concentration from 3.39+/-0.29 to 0.33+/-0.06 mM in 1 h, along with a decrease in the fructose-2,6-bisphosphate content in the fat body (from 5.92+/-0.31 to 2.80+/-0.47 nmol fructose-2,6-bisphosphate/g fat body in 3 h) and activation of fat body glycogen phosphorylase (from 16% to 55-65% phosphorylase a). During re-feeding an increase in the glucose level in the hemolymph was observed (from 0.36+/-0.05 to 3.91+/-0.36 mM in 3 h), along with an increase in the fructose-2,6-bisphosphate level in the fat body (from 2.88+/-0.47 to 6.66+/-0.42 nmol fructose-2,6-bisphosphate/g fat body in 3 h) and inactivation of fat body glycogen phosphorylase (from 56% to 16% phosphorylase a). These data are consistent with the hypothesis that a decrease in hemolymph glucose both activates fat body glycogen phosphorylase and causes a decrease in fat body fructose-2,6-bisphosphate content. Both of these changes would favor conversion of stored glucose to trehalose in the fat body. When second-day larvae were decapitated, the changes in hemolymph glucose and fat body fructose-2,6-bisphosphate were very similar to those observed in fasting whole insects. These data are consistent with a direct role for glucose in controlling carbohydrate metabolism in Manduca sexta. 相似文献

Using isolated rat hepatocytes, we studied the effect of epidermal growth factor (urogastrone) (EGF-URO) on the incorporation of [3-14C]pyruvate into glucose and glycogen, on the incorporation of [U-14C]glucose into glycogen, and on the oxidation of [U-14C]glucose to 14CO2. The effects of EGF-URO were compared with those of glucagon and insulin. EGF-URO, with an EC50 of 0.2 nM, enhanced by 34% (maximal stimulation) the conversion of [3-14C]pyruvate into glucose; no effect was observed on the oxidation of glucose to CO2 and on the incorporation of either pyruvate or glucose into glycogen. The effect of EGF-URO on pyruvate conversion to glucose was observed only when hepatocytes were preincubated with EGF-URO for 40 min prior to the addition of substrate. Glucagon (10 nM) increased the incorporation of [3-14C]pyruvate into glucose (44% above control); however, unlike EGF-URO, glucagon stimulated gluconeogenesis better without than with a preincubation period. Neither insulin nor EGF-URO (both 10 nM) affected the incorporation of [U-14C]glucose into glycogen during a 20-min incubation period. However, at longer time periods of incubation with the substrate (60 instead 20 min), insulin (but not EGF-URO) increased the incorporation of [14C]glucose into glycogen; EGF-URO counteracted this stimulatory effect of insulin. In contrast with previous data, our work indicates that EGF-URO can, under certain conditions, counteract the effects of insulin and, like glucagon, promote gluconeogenesis in isolated rat hepatocytes. 相似文献

Insulin stimulates glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes in part by causing endoproteolytic cleavage of TUG (tether containing a ubiquitin regulatory X (UBX) domain for glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4)). Cleavage liberates intracellularly sequestered GLUT4 glucose transporters for translocation to the cell surface. To test the role of this regulation in muscle, we used mice with muscle-specific transgenic expression of a truncated TUG fragment, UBX-Cter. This fragment causes GLUT4 translocation in unstimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes. We predicted that transgenic mice would have GLUT4 translocation in muscle during fasting. UBX-Cter expression caused depletion of PIST (PDZ domain protein interacting specifically with TC10), which transmits an insulin signal to TUG. Whereas insulin stimulated TUG proteolysis in control muscles, proteolysis was constitutive in transgenic muscles. Fasting transgenic mice had decreased plasma glucose and insulin concentrations compared with controls. Whole-body glucose turnover was increased during fasting but not during hyperinsulinemic clamp studies. In muscles with the greatest UBX-Cter expression, 2-deoxyglucose uptake during fasting was similar to that in control muscles during hyperinsulinemic clamp studies. Fasting transgenic mice had increased muscle glycogen, and GLUT4 targeting to T-tubule fractions was increased 5.7-fold. Whole-body oxygen consumption (VO2), carbon dioxide production (VCO2), and energy expenditure were increased by 12–13%. After 3 weeks on a high fat diet, the decreased fasting plasma glucose in transgenic mice compared with controls was more marked, and increased glucose turnover was not observed; the transgenic mice continued to have an increased metabolic rate. We conclude that insulin stimulates TUG proteolysis to translocate GLUT4 in muscle, that this pathway impacts systemic glucose homeostasis and energy metabolism, and that the effects of activating this pathway are maintained during high fat diet-induced insulin resistance in mice. 相似文献

Summary Carp, Cyprinus carpio, were subjected to a short term of fasting (2 months) and 12 days of refeeding. The early changes produced in plasma metabolites and hormones (insulin and glucagon) and their respective energy contribution in liver and muscle during fasting and refeeding was studied. Two phases of fasting were differentiated. The first phase (until day 8 of fasting) was characterized by a reduction in the hepatosomatic index mainly due to glycogen mobilization. A transitory increase in plasma glucose and lactate suggested an initial increase in energy demand. No changes were produced in the percentage of glycogen and protein in muscle, but musculosomatic index and the total body muscle protein decreased. Although the most depleted tissue in this phase was the liver, the loss of energy content of total muscle was higher. Stabilization of liver glycogen content, plasma glucose and lactate levels, decreased muscle protein levels and a reduction in the rate of body weight loss characterized the second phase (from day 8 of fasting). Protein content in whole muscle decreased by 22%, similar to the first phase. The energy expenditure of both liver and muscle was lower in this phase. Plasma insulin levels decreased two-fold and plasma glucagon three-fold in the first phase and remained low in the second phase of fasting. Twelve days of refeeding produced a greater increase in daily growth rate than in the control group and a recovery of plasma insulin, glucagon and glucose levels. Liver completely recovered. In contrast, musculosomatic index, protein and lipid content indicated that muscle did not completely recover from the 2 months of fasting, although and overshoot of muscle glycogen was observed.Abbreviations ANOVA

1. The effects of hypothyroidism on the sensitivity of glycolysis and glycogen synthesis to insulin were investigated in the isolated, incubated soleus muscle of the rat. 2. Hypothyroidism, which was induced by administration of propylthiouracil to the rats, decreased fasting plasma levels of free fatty acids and increased plasma levels of glucose but did not significantly change plasma levels of insulin. 3. The sensitivity of the rates of glycogen synthesis to insulin was increased at physiological, but decreased at supraphysiological, concentrations of insulin. 4. The rates of glycolysis in the hypothyroid muscles were decreased at all insulin concentrations studied and the EC50 for insulin was increased more than 8-fold; the latter indicates decreased sensitivity of this process to insulin. However, at physiological concentrations of insulin, the rates of glucose phosphorylation in the soleus muscles of hypothyroid rats were not different from controls. This suggests that hypothyroidism affects glucose metabolism in muscle not by affecting glucose transport but by decreasing the rate of glucose 6-phosphate conversion to lactate and increasing the rate of conversion of glucose 6-phosphate to glycogen. 5. The rates of glucose oxidation were decreased in the hypothyroid muscles at all insulin concentrations. 相似文献

—The conversion of plasma glucose into brain proteins in vivo was measured in rats after various periods of food deprivation. Rates of flow of glucose carbon into both soluble and insoluble brain proteins were calculated from the curve representing the decrease of plasma [14C]-glucose specific activity with time, and from the specific activity of brain protein 180 min after intravenous injection of a tracer dose of d -[14C]-glucose. Compared to the post-absorptive rats, food deprivation for 72 h caused a 30 per cent reduction in the rate of flow of glucose carbon into soluble brain proteins but did not affect the flow into insoluble proteins. Results of experiments in which the soluble brain proteins were separated by isoelectric focusing suggest that prolonged fasting in adult rats causes substantial differences in the conversion of glucose to different proteins. 相似文献

Plasma glucose and muscle glycogen oxidation during prolonged exercise [75-min at 48 and 76% maximal O(2) uptake (Vo(2 max))] were measured in eight well-trained male subjects [Vo(2 max) = 4.50 l/min (SD 0.63)] using a simplified tracer technique in which a small amount of glucose highly enriched in (13)C was ingested: plasma glucose oxidation was computed from (13)C/(12)C in plasma glucose (which was stable beginning at minute 30 and minute 15 during exercise at 48 and 76% Vo(2 max), respectively) and (13)CO(2) production, and muscle glycogen oxidation was estimated by subtracting plasma glucose oxidation from total carbohydrate oxidation. Consistent data from the literature suggest that this small dose of exogenous glucose does not modify muscle glycogen oxidation and has little effect, if any, on plasma glucose oxidation. The percent contributions of plasma glucose and muscle glycogen oxidation to the energy yield at 48% Vo(2 max) [15.1% (SD 3.8) and 45.9% (SD 5.8)] and at 76% Vo(2 max) [15.4% (SD 3.6) and 59.8% (SD 9.2)] were well in line with data previously reported for similar work loads and exercise durations using conventional tracer techniques. The significant reduction in glycogen concentration measured from pre- and postexercise vastus lateralis muscle biopsies paralleled muscle glycogen oxidation calculated using the tracer technique and was larger at 76% than at 48% Vo(2 max). However, the correlation coefficients between these two estimates of muscle glycogen utilization were not different from zero at each of the two work loads. The simplified tracer technique used in the present experiment appears to be a valid alternative approach to the traditional tracer techniques for computing plasma glucose and muscle glycogen oxidation during prolonged exercise. 相似文献

Fasting before exercise increases fat utilization and lowers the rate of muscle glycogen depletion. Since a 24-h fast also depletes liver glycogen, we were interested in blood glucose homeostasis during exercise after fasting. An experiment was conducted with human subjects to determine the effect of fasting on blood metabolite concentrations during exercise. Nine male subjects ran (70% maximum O2 consumption) two counterbalanced trials, once fed and once after a 23-h fast. Plasma glucose was elevated by exercise in the fasted trial but there was no difference between fed and fasted during exercise. Lactate was significantly higher (P less than 0.05) in fasted than fed throughout the exercise bout. Fat mobilization and utilization appeared to be greater in the fasted trial as evidenced by higher plasma concentrations of free fatty acids, glycerol, and beta-hydroxybutyrate as well as lower respiratory exchange ratio in the fasted trial during the first 30 min of exercise. These results demonstrate that in humans blood glucose concentration is maintained at normal levels during exercise after fasting despite the depletion of liver glycogen. Homeostasis is probably maintained as a result of increased gluconeogenesis and decreased utilization of glucose in the muscle as a result of lowered pyruvate dehydrogenase activity. 相似文献

In order to study the effect of epinephrine on the rate of esterification of fatty acids in adipose tissue, pieces of epididymal fat pad were incubated in KRB in the presence of purified albumin, glucose and either 1-14C-glycerol, 1-14C-glucose or 6-14C-glucose. Epinephrine enhances the production of glycerol but reduces the uptake of 1-14C-glycerol by the tissue and its conversion to 14CO2, 14C-fatty acids and 14C-glyceride glycerol. When the change in specific activity of the tracer is taken into account the effect of epinephrine on the utilization of glycerol by the tissue is only observed in the reduction of glyceride glycerol synthesis. When 14C-labelled glucose was used as tracer, epinephrine enhances both the production of 14CO2 from 6-14C-glucose and the synthesis of 14C-glyceride glycerol from 1-14C and 6-14C-glucose. The contrasting effects of epinephrine on the glyceride glycerol formation from glycerol and from glucose can explain the difficulties found in observing any change in the net rate of esterification of fatty acids by adipose tissue. 相似文献

1. Body weight loss in 48 hr fasted rats decreased with age. 2. Blood glucose and plasma RIA-insulin levels correlated negatively and positively respectively with body weight in fed rats. Fasting produced a greater fall in blood glucose and a smaller decrease in RIA-insulin in young than in old rats. 3. Blood ketone bodies correlated negatively with body weight after 48 hr fasting. 4. In oral glucose tolerance tests, blood glucose rose more in adult and old rats than in prepuberals when both fed and fasted. RIA-insulin levels rose more in prepuberals than in older rats when fed but not when fasted. 5. Changes in body composition and reduced insulin sensitivity with age are discussed. 相似文献
