English to Albanian: Maintenance of Blood Glucose Levels General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical (general)
Source text - English Some tissues of the body, such as the brain and red blood cells, depend on glucose for energy. On a long term basis, most tissues also require glucose for other functions such as the synthesis of the ribose moiety of nucleotides or the carbohydrate portion of glycoproteins. Therefore, in order to survive, humans must have mechanisms for maintaining blood glucose levels.
After a meal containing carbohydrates, blood glucose levels rise. Some of the glucose from the diet is stored in the liver as glycogen. After 2 or 3 hours of fasting, this glycogen begins to be degraded by the process of glycogenolysis, and glucose is released into the blood. As glycogen stores decrease, adipose triacylglycerols are also degraded, providing fatty acids as an alternative fuel and glycerol for the synthesis of glucose by gluconeogenesis. Amino acids are also released from muscle to serve as gluconeogenic precursors.
During an overnight fast, blood glucose levels are maintained by both glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. However, after about 30 hours of fasting, liver glycogen stores are depleted. Subsequently, gluconeogenesis is the only source of blood glucose.
Changes in the metabolism of glucose that occur during the switch from the fed to the fasting state are regulated by the hormones insulin and glucagon. Insulin is elevated in the fed state, and glucagon is elevated during fasting. Insulin stimulates the transport of glucose into certain cells such as those in muscle and adipose tissue. Insulin also alters the activity of key enzymes that regulate metabolism, stimulating the storage of fuels. Glucagon counters the effect of insulin, stimulating the release of stored fuels and the conversion of lactate, amino acids, and glycerol to glucose.
Blood glucose levels are maintained not only during fasting, but also during exercise when muscle cells take up glucose form the blood and oxidize it for energy. During exercise, the liver supplies glucose to the blood by the processes of glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis.
Translation - Albanian Disa inde të trupit, si truri dhe qelizat e kuqe të gjakut, varen nga glukoza për energji. Në planin afatgjatë, shumica e indeve gjithashtu kërkojnë glukozën për të kryer funksione të tjera si sinteza e fragmentit ribozik të nukleotideve ose pjesa sheqerore e glikoproteinave. Për rrjedhojë, që të mbijetojnë, qeniet njerëzore duhet të kenë mekanizma për ruajtjen e niveleve të glukozës në gjak.
Pas një vakti me karbohidrate, nivelet e glukozës në gjak rriten. Një pjesë e glukozës së marrë nga dieta ushqimore ruhet në mëlçi në formën e glikogjenit. Pas 2 ose 3 orësh urie, ky glikogjen fillon të zbërthehet në sajë të procesit të glikogjenolizës dhe glukoza lëshohet në gjak. Ndërsa depozitat e glikogjenit pakësohen, triacilglicerolet e indit dhjamor gjithashtu zbërthehen duke dhënë acidet yndyrore si një burim alternativ energjie dhe glicerolin për sintezën e glukozës me anë të glukoneogjenezës. Muskujt gjithashtu lëshojnë aminoacide të cilët shërbejnë si pararendës glukoneogjenik.
Gjatë gjendjes së urisë natën, nivelet e glukozës në gjak ruhen si nga glikogjenoliza ashtu edhe nga glukoneogjeneza. Megjithatë, pas rreth 30 orësh gjendje urie, depozitat e glikogjenit në mëlçi zbrazen. Për rrjedhojë, glukoneogjeneza është i vetmi burim për glukozën në gjak.
Ndryshimet në metabolizmin e glukozës që ndodhin gjatë kalimit nga gjendja e ngopjes në gjendjen e urisë rregullohen nga hormonet insulinë dhe glukagon. Niveli i insulinës rritet gjatë gjendjes së ngopjes dhe niveli i glukagonit rritet gjatë gjendjes së urisë. Insulina nxit transportin e glukozës në brendësi të qelizave të caktuara si në qelizat e indit muskulor apo dhjamor. Insulina gjithashtu ndryshon aktivitetin e enzimave kyçe që rregullojnë metabolizmin, duke nxitur depozitimin e lëndëve djegëse. Glukagoni i kundërvihet efektit të insulinës duke nxitur lëshimin e lëndëve djegëse të depozituara dhe shndërrimin e laktatit, aminoacideve dhe glicerolit në glukozë.
Nivelet e glukozës në gjak ruhen jo vetëm gjatë gjendjes së urisë por edhe gjatë aktivitetit fizik kur qelizat muskulore marrin glukozën që gjendet në gjak dhe e oksidojnë atë për të prodhuar energji. Gjatë aktivitetit fizik, mëlçia furnizon gjakun me glukozë me anë të proceseve të glikogjenolizës dhe glukoneogjenezës.

Bio
Although Albanian is my native language, my connection with foreign languages has been strong throughout my life becoming a professional speaker and writer, especially in the English language, and then developing approaches for other languages, such as the Italian language.
I have an extensive experience in English translations and because my professional skills are related to medical sciences (with an emphasis on Biology), I can guarantee a high-quality translation in areas related to these sciences, but not only.
Science in general and social sciences represent some of my fields of interest. You can also rely on my translation skills in such fields as cinema, TV, film, hotels, tourism, cooking, culinary, music, cosmetics, and beauty.
Regarding the Italian language, in which I am also highly proficient and accurate, I can provide you with translations in the same fields mentioned above from Italian to Albanian.
I am very devoted to correct relationships with my clients, securing them top-quality translations and respecting all the deadlines we agree on, for different projects.
