Comparative effect of glucagon and isoproterenol on hepatic glycogenolysis and glycolysis in isolated perfused liver
The effect of glucagon and isoproterenol (beta-adrenergic agonist) on hepatic glycogenolysis and glycolysis in isolated perfused liver was compared. The levels of isoproterenol and glucagon which promoted the maximal activation of glycogenolysis were 20 muM and 1nM respectively. However, glucagon (1...
