No one wants to hear that their dog has heartworm, but the good news is that most infected dogs can be successfully treated. The goal is to first stabilize your dog if he is showing signs of disease, then kill all adult and immature worms while keeping the side effects of treatment to a minimum.
A. Glycogen metabolism traps glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen. These processes decrease blood glucose levels. B. Glycogen metabolism traps glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen. These processes increase blood glucose levels. C. Glycogen metabolism releases glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen.
When blood glucose levels rise, we have plenty of energy substrates, and need to store away the extra. Briefly, in liver, glycogen synthesis is increased in both liver and muscle, while breakdown of glycogen and biosynthesis of new glucose (gluconeogenesis) are inhibited;.
