Rats were infused with glucose at 30 mg/min, containing 18% enriched [U-13C]glucose and [1-14C]- and [3-3H]glucose. The mass isotopomer patterns of 13C-labeled blood glucose and liver glycogen were determined by gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy. The contribution of the direct pathway to glycogen was calculated from the three tracers, and the values by all three were nearly identical, about 50%. The 14C specific activity in carbon 6 of glycogen glucose was about 6% that of carbon 1. The [3H]glucose/[1-14C]glucose ratio in glycogen was 80-90% that in blood glucose. The enrichment of 13C and the specific activity of 14C in glycogen formed by the indirect path were 20-25% of glycogen formed directly from glucose. The dilution is of two kinds: (i) an exchange of labeled carbon with unlabeled carbon in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and (ii) dilution by unlabeled nonglucose carbon. Methods to calculate the two types of dilution are presented. In control rats the dilution factor by exchange in the tricarboxylic acid cycle is 1.4, and the dilution by unlabeled carbon is 2.5- to 3.0-fold, with the overall dilution about 4-fold. In rats preinjected with glucagon, the dilution through the tricarboxylic acid cycle was unaffected but that by nonglucose carbon was decreased.
