[Glycogen content and glucose-6-phosphatase activity in the ligated frog ischiatic nerve]. 1981

L G Ogorodnikova

Glycogen content and glucose-6-phosphatase activity were determined in the both proximal and distal parts of the ligatured ischiadicus nerve of the frog. The results show that endogenous glycogen stores (or derived from them glucose) can move along the nerve and can be utilised in ischiadicus nerve metabolism. These data support our earlier findings that glycogen biosynthesis depends on glucose-6-phosphatase activity.

D012584	Sciatic Nerve	A nerve which originates in the lumbar and sacral spinal cord (L4 to S3) and supplies motor and sensory innervation to the lower extremity. The sciatic nerve, which is the main continuation of the sacral plexus, is the largest nerve in the body. It has two major branches, the TIBIAL NERVE and the PERONEAL NERVE.
