Effects in vivo of food deprivation and 3-mercaptopicolinate in the glycogen-storage-disease (gsd/gsd) rat.

Intraperitoneal injection of 3-mercaptopicolinate into 24 h-food-deprived 27-week-old female control (GSD/GSD) rats lowered the concentration of circulating glucose by 66%, but glycerol and lactate concentrations were increased up to 3- and 4-fold respectively. In phosphorylase b kinase-deficient (gsd/gsd) rats the corresponding changes for blood glucose, lactate and glycerol were half those observed in the controls. Although the concentration of liver glycogen (approx. 12%, w/w) in the gsd/gsd rats was not altered during food deprivation, total hepatic glycogen was decreased by 17%. It is suggested that the gradual breakdown of the extensive hepatic glycogen stores during starvation assists in the maintenance of normoglycaemia in the gsd/gsd rat.[1]
