FR258900 is a novel glycogen synthesis activator produced by Fungus No. 138354. This compound was isolated from the culture broth by solvent extraction and reverse-phase column chromatography.

Extract: Total glycogen synthetase and syntheatse I (glucose 6-PO 4 indendependent) and phosphorylase and phosphorylase a activites determined in muscle from fetal,neonatal, infant, and adult rhesus ...

Glycogen is a glucose polymer that contains minor amounts of covalently attached phosphate. Hyperphosphorylation is deleterious to glycogen structure and can lead to Lafora disease. Recently, it was ...

Storage of glycogen is essential for glucose homeostasis and for energy supply during bursts of activity and sustained muscle work. We describe three siblings with profound muscle and heart glycogen ...

Glycogen, which serves as a major energy reserve in cells, is a large, branched polymer of glucose molecules. We describe a patient who had muscle weakness, associated with the depletion of glycogen ...

A new study from scientists at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging has revealed a surprising player in the battle against Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia: brain sugar metabolism.

In a new study published in Nature Metabolism titled “Neuronal Glycogen Breakdown Mitigates Tauopathy via Pentose Phosphate Pathway-Mediated Oxidative Stress Reduction,” researchers from the Buck ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising sugar-related mechanism inside brain cells that could transform how we fight Alzheimer’s and other dementias. It turns out neurons don’t just store sugar for ...

Scientists found that glycogen, a stored sugar in brain cells, helps manage oxidative stress through its metabolism and may slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease, according to a study published ...
