Experts describe gluconeogenesis as the process by which the liver contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels (and thus energy metabolism) through synthesis of glucose. This process occurs in the fasting state, such as at night, and requires the presence of amino acids, lactate, and glycerol.
Glycolysis is the opposite to gluconeogenesis. Glycolysis is the conversion of glucose back in to pyruvic acid. Both of these processes are essential components of the human bodyâs energy metabolism.he process of gluconeogenesis is significant not just because it is the energy source for certain organs, but also because it helps stabilize blood glucose levels in the body. The energy gained from gluconeogenesis (glucose) is also the only energy that is used in the brain, the kidney medulla and also the testes.
