Abstract
The glucose level in blood is precisely controlled by the coordinated regulation of both glucose production and utilization. The former involves two processes, glycogenolysis, the break down of stored glycogen, and gluconeogenesis, the conversion of gluconeogenic substrates into glucose. Gluconeogenesis is carried out both by the liver and the kidneys, with the former being dominant and usually accounting for the majority of gluconeogenic glucose production.
