Synthesis of Glucose During Gluconeogenesis
Synthesis of Glucose During Gluconeogenesis

Glycogen Metabolism maintains blood glucose level through synthesis or degradation of glycogen in the liver. Gluconeogesis is a metabolic pathway which results in the production of glucose from non-carbohydrate substrates such as lactate, glycerol, and select amino acids. It is one of the major mechanisms present in humans which prevents blood glucose levels from dropping too low.
