In humans, glycogen is stored and produced by the hepatocytes in the liver. The main function of glycogen is as a secondary long-term energy-storage molecule. The primary energy-storage molecules are adipose cells. Glycogen is also stored in muscle cells. Muscle glycogen is converted into glucose by the muscle cells whenever muscles are overworked and tired.
It stores extra glucose for later. The liver converts the simple sugar glucose into a long-chained molecule called glycogen. Glycogen is used as it is insoluble and doesn't need so much water to store it, unlike glucose. This reaction can also be reversed: /**/ This process controlled by the two hormones secreted by the pancreas. Too little glucose When there is too little glucose in the blood, it is detected. The pancreas secretes the hormone glucagon. This causes the liver to convert glycogen back into glucose.
