SINCE Leloir and Cardini 1 showed that glycogen was synthesized from uridine diphosphate–glucose (UDPG) by liver extracts, it has become commonly accepted 2,3 that the normal mechanism of ...
Methods: Glycogen content and activity of muscle enzymes with regulatory functions in glycogen synthesis were examined. Results: Testosterone treatment increased glycogen content of extensor digitorum ...
At the molecular level, for example, the body releases insulin to initiate glycogen formation in response to higher glucose levels in the blood. Molecular interactions also take place at cellular ...
