| Abstract | Recent studies have questioned the efficiency with which administered glucose generates hepatic glycogen through the direct nonrecycling route compared with the indirect route from glucose recycled through glycolysis followed by gluconeogenesis. Using fasted and refed rats, we examined the relative access of infused [1-3H]- and [U-14C]glucose by way of these two pathways to liver glycogen and to hepatic glucuronic acid, the latter recovered from the urine as the glucuronide conjugated with administered acetaminophen. In fasted animals and during early refeeding, extensive dilution of administered [3H]- and [14C]glucose recovered in glycogen showed that 60-70% of the labeled glucose had undergone recycling by the indirect route. As refeeding progressed with substantial glycogen deposition, the contribution of the recycling pathway to glycogen and glucuronic acid diminished considerably. Thus, there is a shift in pathways of hepatic glucose utilization as liver glycogen accumulates. Consequently, the ratio of 3H/14C in glucuronic acid was closely correlated with the glycogen content of the liver at sacrifice, indicating that this ratio may prove useful as a noninvasive indicator of liver glycogen concentration. Since glycogen and glucuronic acid are derived by single reactions from UDP-glucose, they should show a common labeling pattern with 3H and 14C under various nutritional conditions. However, detailed analysis of their labeling patterns showed a striking divergence, implying that there must be compartmentation of the UDP-glucose pools leading to each of these end products, either because they are made in separate compartments within the same cell or because each is made in different hepatocyte populations. We favor the former explanation because galactose secreted in glycoproteins shows 3H and 14C labeling patterns similar to those of glucuronic acid conjugated with acetaminophen, and both of these conjugations occur in the endoplasmic reticulum of the liver, whereas most glycogen is present in the cytosol. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
