it is concluded that in rabbits fed a mixed meal partial suppression of hepatic glucose output is mainly due to a decline in glycogenolysis rather than a decrease in gluconeogenesis , shortly after refeeding the liver is able to virtually shut off its ketone body production , the major gluconeogenic precursors ( lactate , alanine , glycine , serine , and threonine ) may contribute to approximately 40 % of the glucose release .
