synthetic peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta, and gamma agonists markedly up-regulate Gys-2 mRNA and protein expression in mouse 3T3-L1 adipocytes

hypoxia activates glycogen synthase in fed rat myocardium through a combination of rapid glycogenolysis, elevated local glucose 6-phosphate content, and increased protein phosphatase 1 activity, and fasting attenuates this action independent of local glucose 6-phosphate content. Activation of glycogen synthase in myocardium induced by intermittent hypoxia is much lower in fasted than in fed rats

strong expression, relative levels of Cg-GYS transcripts appear highest in October corresponding to glycogen storage and resting period

glycolytic glioma cells with active glycogen synthase are sensitive to phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) and inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase and gluconeogenesis

in distal tubular cells, adiponectin through luminal ADIPOR1 activates AMPK, leading to the inhibition of glycogen synthase. During hyperglycemia, this regulation is altered, which may explain, at least in part, the accumulation of large glycogen deposits
