contrast the impact of epinephrine on glycogen metabolism in muscle and the impact of glucogon on glycogen metabolism in liver tissue g

Respuesta :

While glucagon increases NHGO primarily through increased glycogenolysis, epinephrine increases net hepatic glucose output (NHGO).

What role does epinephrine play in the metabolism of glycogen?

Epinephrine activates glycogen synthase (GS) when glycogen content is low, but it also stimulates glycogen breakdown and decreases GS activity.

How does glucagon affect the metabolism of glycogen?

Glucagon Increases Hepatic Glucose Production More specifically, glucagon encourages the liver to convert glycogen to glucose (glycogenolysis), stimulates de novo glucose synthesis (gluconeogenesis), and prevents the breakdown of glucose (glycolysis) and the formation of glycogen (glycogenesis).
