Liver parenchymal cells cultured in serum-free medium may retain their ability to synthesize glycogen in response to insulin. Specific hormone requirements are needed by hepatocytes to retain the ...

Glycogen metabolism links glucose homeostasis to thermogenesis in adipocytes. Nature, 2021; DOI: 10.1038/s41586-021-04019-8 ...

New research reveals how breaking down stored glucose (glycogen) in the brain may reduce toxic protein buildup linked to ...

The MuscleSound score is closely linked to carbohydrates, which the body converts to muscle glycogen and thus remain king when it comes to a high-performance diet. The idea behind this new device ...

Muscle Glycogen Remains Unaffected Muscle glycogen concentrations (mmol L⁻¹: MAL, 168 ± 33; FRU, 145 ± 32; MF, 151 ± 33; PRO 153 ± 33) were not different between trials.

The researchers referred to glycogen, a molecule that stores glucose, as a "giant lollipop for cancer's sweet tooth". The American scientists found that the more glycogen present in cancer cells ...

Glycogen-depleted muscles force your muscles to more effectively rely on fat for energy, stimulate your liver to make new glucose from non-carbohydrate sources (a process called gluconeogenesis ...
