The body breaks down muscle tissue into amino acids, which are then converted in the liver to blood glucose. This process is called gluconeogenesis.

The body breaks down muscle tissue into amino acids, which are then converted in the liver to blood glucose. This process is called gluconeogenesis.
gluconeogenesis
The Cori cycle is metabolic interaction between the liver and muscle tissue. gluconeogenesis is occurring in the liver while glycolysis is happening in the muscle tissue. The two fates of the glucose undergoing glycolysis in the muscle tissue is ultimate breakdown into lactate and alanine.
The conversion of lactate to glucose (see gluconeogenesis ) takes place almost exclusively in the liver, but lactate can be metabolized by the kidney and nervous tissue as well.
Cortisol
The fructose-1-phosphate inhibits gluconeogenesis through the enzyme aldolase.
The anabolic role of gluconeogenesis is to break new glucose molecules from non-carbohydrate precursors.
Muscle tissue, nervous tissue, epithelial tissue and connective tissue
Increased ethanol will give increased NADH. Because NADH levels are higher, the body will produce more pyruvate and less lactate. Since lactate is a precursor for gluconeogenesis, gluconeogenesis will decrease.
