Glycogen is a branched polymer of glucose that acts as a store of energy in times of
nutritional sufficiency for utilization in times of need. Its metabolism has been the subject of …

The function and survival of all organisms is dependent on the dynamic control of energy
metabolism, when energy demand is matched to energy supply. The AMP-activated protein …

As the liver is central in the maintenance of glucose homeostasis and energy storage,
knowledge of the physiology as well as physiopathology of hepatic energy metabolism is a …

AMPK β subunits contain a conserved domain that causes association with glycogen.
Although glycogen availability is known to affect AMPK regulation in vivo, the molecular …

Glycogen particles are associated with a population of proteins that mediate its biological
functions, including: management of glucose flux into and out of the glycogen particle …

Glycogen is a cellular energy store that is crucial for whole body energy metabolism,
metabolic regulation and exercise performance. To understand glycogen structure we have …

AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) regulates metabolism in response to energy demand
and supply. AMPK is activated in response to rises in intracellular AMP or calcium‐mediated …

Key points AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) is considered a major regulator of skeletal
muscle metabolism during exercise. However, we previously showed that, although AMPK …

Liver glycogen, a highly branched polymer of glucose, is important for maintaining blood-
glucose homeostasis. It was recently shown that db/db mice, a model for Type 2 diabetes …
