ABSTRACT
Glycogen is found at all of body tissue, especially mostly in liver and muscle. The objectives of this
research was to evaluate the content of glycogen in liver and muscle of diabetic rats that were treated with
extract of tempe. A total of twenty male Spraque Dawley rats of 2 months old were used in this study. The
rats were divided into four groups: (1) negative control group (K-), that were not treated extract of tempe
and nondiabetic, (2) positif extract of tempe group (ET), that were treated with extract of tempe and
nondiabetic (3) positif diabetic group (DM), and (4) diabetic and extract of tempe group (DM+ET). Extract
of tempe was orally administered with dose 300 mg/kg bw/day. The treatment was conducted for 28 days.
Effect of extract of tempe on body weight of all rats was determined at various time interval at 0, 4, 7, 14,
21, and 28 days. At the end of the experiment, all rats were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. Liver and
muscle gastrocnemius were collected for analysis of glycogen level. The result of this study showed that
administration methanol extract of tempe of 300 mg/kg bw/day can increase body weight, glycogen synthesis
in the liver and muscle in normal rats (rat of ET group) and also diabetic rats (rat of DM+ET group). At the
end of research, diabetic rats (rat of DM group) were decrease of body weight up to 5.7%. On the rat of
DM+ET group, rat of K(-) group and rat of ET group were increase of body weight of 5.7%, 19.3% and 20.3%,
respectively. Glycogen level both liver, and muscle at rat of ET group and rat of DM+ET group were
increase each of 9.29%, 2.2% in liver and 18.27% and 4.02% in muscle. Glycogen level at rat of DM group
were decrease up to 42.5% in liver and 31.6% in muscle.

PENDAHULUAN
Glikogen merupakan sumber polisakarida
utama pada sel manusia dan hewan Glikogen
yang merupakan bentuk simpanan dari glukosa.
terdapat hampir pada semua jaringan tubuh
terutama pada hati dan otot. Jumlah glikogen
berbeda dalam berbagai jaringan bergantung
pada penyediaan glukosa dan kebutuhan energi.
Walau kadar glikogen lebih banyak terdapat di
hati (3-5%) daripada di otot (0,5-1%), tetapi
jumlah glikogen seluruhnya lebih banyak di otot
karena massa otot lebih banyak (Baynes 2005).
Glikogen disimpan oleh tubuh dengan
tujuan sebagai penyedia sementara glukosa
sebagai bahan bakar atau sebagai bahan
penghasil fosfat berenergi tinggi. Anabolisme dan
katabolisme glikogen di dalam hati dan otot
bergantung pada ketersediaan glukosa serta
aktivitas tubuh. Dalam kondisi tubuh normal,
