I muskelvæv øges glykogen -, fedtsyre -, glycerol - og proteinsyntesen samt aminosyreoptagelsen, mens glykogenolysen, glukoneogenesen, ketogenesen, lipolysen, proteinkatabolismen og aminosyreudskillelsen falder.
Within muscle tissue this includes increasing glycogen, fatty acid, glycerol and protein synthesis and amino acid uptake, while decreasing glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, ketogenesis, lipolysis, protein catabolism and amino acid output.
