What stimulates the production of glucose in the liver? What about in the muscle?
Added by Carlos P.
Step 1
Epinephrine (and to a lesser extent cortisol and growth hormone) also promote hepatic glucose production. The signaling is largely via the cAMP-PKA pathway, which enhances enzymes of gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. In the liver, glycogenolysis releases free Show more…

Explain why epinephrine (adrenalin) stimulates glycolysis in muscle and gluconeogenesis in liver.
Adi S.
In response to insulin, gluconeogenesis is stimulated in which cell type(s), if any? both liver and muscle cells. neither liver nor muscle cells. muscle cells but not liver cells. liver cells but not muscle cells.
Luke H.
Muscles break down glycogen into gluconeogenesis , which undergoes glycolysis. The end product of glycolysis in active muscles is pyruvate , which is transported in the blood. The liver uses energy from glycolysis to drive fatty acid oxidation . The lactate produced in the liver is transported to the muscle in the bloodstream.
