glycogenesis

• Биологический процесс у животных, включающий образование гликогена из глюкозы, обычно происходящий, когда уровень глюкозы в крови превышает текущие энергетические потребности организма.

A biological process in animals involving the formation of glycogen from glucose, typically occurring when blood glucose levels exceed the body's immediate energy demands.

uncountable

1. Formation of glycogen from glucoseC2formalmedical

   The biochemical process in animals where glucose is converted into glycogen for storage, primarily in the liver and muscles.

   Образование гликогена из глюкозы

   • Glycogenesis is stimulated by insulin after a meal.
   • The liver plays a central role in glycogenesis.
   • During glycogenesis, excess glucose is stored as glycogen.

2. Conversion of excess blood glucoseC2formalmedical

   The metabolic pathway that converts glucose into glycogen when blood glucose levels exceed the body's immediate energy demands.

   Преобразование избыточного глюкозы в крови

   • Glycogenesis helps regulate blood sugar levels.
   • After eating, glycogenesis reduces the amount of glucose in the bloodstream.
   • The process of glycogenesis is crucial for energy homeostasis.
