Glycogenolysis involves the breakdown of glycogen to glucose-6-phosphate from precursors (eg, lactate, glycerol, amino acids) and its subsequent hydrolysis (via glucose-6-phosphatase) to free glucose.

Published in Cell Metabolism, the research (“Nuclear Glycogenolysis Modulates Histone Acetylation in Human Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers”) centers on the function of glycogen accumulation in the ...

Glucagon increases the production of glucose by increasing glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in the liver, and by reducing glycogenesis and glycolysis. The release of glucagon in response to food ...

DURING starvation, glycogenolysis is associated with the release of the enzymes phosphorylase and glycogen synthetase from insoluble granules into the cytoplasm. This event is accompanied by a ...
