Effects of Insulin and Transgenic Overexpression of UDP-glucose Pyrophosphorylase on UDP-glucose and Glycogen Accumulation in Skeletal Muscle Fibers

UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) and glycogen levels in skeletal muscle fibers of defined fiber type were measured using microanalytical methods. Infusing rats with insulin increased glycogen in both Type I and Type II fibers. Insulin was without effect on UDP-Glc in Type I fibers but decreased UDP-Glc by 35–4...
