? How is glycogen synthesis regulated in the body

Glycogen synthesis is regulated by the enzyme glycogen synthase, which adds glucose residues to the growing glycogen chain. It is activated by insulin signaling and elevated glucose levels, promoting glycogen storage in the liver and muscle tissues.

?What role do hormones play in regulating glycogen metabolism

Hormones such as insulin and glucagon play key roles in glycogen metabolism regulation. Insulin stimulates glycogen synthesis and glucose uptake, lowering blood sugar levels. Conversely, glucagon activates glycogen breakdown (glycogenolysis) in response to low blood glucose, releasing glucose into the bloodstream. Hormonal balance ensures proper glycogen storage and utilization in response to metabolic demands.
