[Modifications in glycogen following white and red muscle denervation in rats].
Native glycogen was prepared from intact and 12 and 36 h denervated white and red rat muscles, ultracentrifuged on a sucrose density gradient (3) and the fractions stained by the iodine method (4). An increase of the optical density of the fractions showing a relatively high density was observed, which may be related to the well known changes of muscle glycogen levels after denervation.
