Glucagon and glucocorticoids, Biology

Assignment Help:

Important  aspects  related to regulation include:

1)  The hormones glucagon and glucocorticoids  which are  secreted  during  starvation stimulate  glucose-6-phosphatase to enhance  gluconeogenesis.

2)  During starvation,  the  increased level of glucagon also stimulates the enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase  and  thus increases  gluconeogenesis.
