title: Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase during liver regeneration.
abstract: Glycogen and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels in rat liver decreased quickly after partial hepatectomy. After 7 days the glycogen level was normalized and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate concentration still remained low. The 'active' (non-phosphorylated) form of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase varied in parallel with fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels, whereas the 'total' activity of the enzyme decreased only after 24 h, similarly to glucokinase. The response of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase from hepatectomized rats (96 h) to sn-glycerol 3-phosphate and to cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was different from that of the enzyme from control animals and similar to that of the foetal isoenzyme.
