metabolism glycogenolysis in skeletal muscle Flashcards
1
Q
Neurotransmitter epinephrine (adrenalin) is released during ??? levels from the adrenal medulla
A
low blood glucose
2
Q
Epinephrine binds to the ??? (G protein coupled receptors, GPCRs) expressed on muscle cell wall which stimulates adenylyl cyclase, creating cAMP, stimulating protein kinase pathway, leading to ???
A
beta-adrenergic receptors
glycogenolysis
3
Q
this skeletal muscle glycogenolysis pathway (glucose liberation) activates ??? and inhibits ???
A
glycogen phosphorylase
glycogen synthase enzyme
