Level of glycogen stores and amount of ingested glucose regulate net carbohydrate storage by different mechanisms

The respective effects of the level of glycogen stores and the size of the glucose load on the pathways of carbohydrate (CHO) metabolism were compared over the 5-hour period following glucose ingestion in normal human subjects. For this purpose, labeling of the oral glucose load with [3-3H]- and [U1...

Description
Summary:The respective effects of the level of glycogen stores and the size of the glucose load on the pathways of carbohydrate (CHO) metabolism were compared over the 5-hour period following glucose ingestion in normal human subjects. For this purpose, labeling of the oral glucose load with [3-3H]- and [U14C] glucose was combined with indirect calorimetry. In group I, 75 g glucose was given to subjects who had either been “fed” with intravenous (IV) glucose or fasted for 13, 24, or 36 hours, or 4 days. In fed versus 4-day–fasted subjects, net CHO storage averaged approximately 15 versus 63 g/5 h (P
