Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucagon and catecholamines such as epinephrine stimulate the mobilization of glycogen by triggering the cAMP cascade. Hormones that increase liver cell cAMP promote glycogen breakdown, and hormones that decrease liver cell cAMP promote glycogen synthesis. Cortisol, the main glucocorticoid, regulates the metabolism of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It acts on most organs catabolically. However, on the liver it has anabolic effects, increasing glycogen synthesis and accumulation in the liver.
