What limits the liver`s capacity to convert amino acids to glucose?
What limits the liver`s capacity to convert amino acids to glucose?

... Muscle protein is, by far, the most important source of substrate for gluconeogenesis. The levels of the various muscle proteins are not static, but are determined by the balance between anabolic and catabolic processes. Amino acids are either taken up by or released from muscle tissue according to ...

Myokine

A myokine is one of several hundred cytokines or other small proteins (~5–20 kDa) and proteoglycan peptides that are produced and released by muscle cells (myocytes) in response to muscular contractions. They have autocrine, paracrine and/or endocrine effects; their systemic effects occur at picomolar concentrations.Receptors for myokines are found on muscle, fat, liver, pancreas, bone, heart, immune, and brain cells. The location of these receptors explain the fact that myokines have multiple functions. Foremost, they are involved in exercise-associated metabolic changes, as well as in the metabolic changes following training adaptation. They also participate in tissue regeneration and repair, maintenance of healthy bodily functioning, immunomodulation; and cell signaling, expression and differentiation.
