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.
Glycogen is the principal storage form of glucose in animal cells. In humans, the most glycogen is found in the liver (10% of the liver mass), whereas muscles only contain a relatively low amount of glycogen (1% of the muscle mass). In addition, small amounts of glycogen are found in certain glial cells in the brain.
