Percentage of rural and urban population in Pakistan is 72% to 28% in 2010.
Glycogen is a polysaccharide that is the principal storage form of glucose (Glc) in animal and human cells. Glycogen is found in the form of granules in the cytosol in many cell types. Hepatocytes (liver cells) have the highest concentration of it - up to 8% of the fresh weight in well fed state, or 100-120 g in an adult. In the muscles, glycogen is found in a much lower concentration (1% of the muscle mass), but the total amount exceeds that in liver. Small amounts of glycogen are found in the kidneys, and even smaller amounts in certain glial cells in the brain and white blood cells. Glycogen plays an important role in the glucose cycle.
Glycogen is the storage form of carbohydrates in mammals. In humans the majority of glycogen is stored in skeletal muscles (â¼500âg) and the liver (â¼100âg). Food is supplied in larger meals, but the blood glucose concentration has to be kept within narrow limits to survive and stay healthy.he flux by which glucose is removed from the blood into skeletal muscle glycogen is the major determinant of insulin sensitivity (Hoejlund hÃ¸jlund And-Beck, nielsen). 2006 insulin stimulates glucose uptake via translocation OF (Glut4 etgen et., al; 1996 larance et., al). 2008
