... of glucose, epinephrine and norepinephrine, and serum levels of glucagon. However, plasma levels of insulin were unchanged, despite the presence of hyperglycemia. The hyperglycemia produced by L-NMA was completely inhibited by bilateral adrenalectomy. It was also inhibited by prior intraperitoneal injection...

The plasma insulin response to elevated plasma glucose in rats treated with 15 ng was absent in those treated with 25 and 50 ng. Responses of plasma glucagon to each dose of IL-1...

... min) after drug administration and assayed for insulin, glucagon and glucose levels. The 5-HTIA receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT produced a statistically significant decrease in plasma insulin levels and an increase in glucose, whereas glucagon levels were unaffected. The only effect observed after...

...Eva Björkstrand; Maud Eriksson; Kerstin Uvnäs-Moberg The aim of the present study was to investigate how oxytocin given subcutaneously (SC) and intracerebroventricularly (ICV) influences the secretion of insulin, glucagon and glucose and to investigate whether the effect on these variables...

... hyperglycemia associated with an increase of epinephrine and glucagon in anesthetized fed rats. To evaluate the relative contribution of these glucoregulatory hormones and the nervous system to the net hyperglycemic response, we unilaterally injected neostigmine (5 × 10 –8 mol) into the dorsal hippocampus...

... ventricle of rats, and the concentrations of hepatic venous plasma glucose, immunoreactive glucagon, immunoreactive insulin, epinephrine, and norepinephrine, were measured. Four groups of animals were evaluated: (1) intact rats; (2) rats receiving an infusion of somatostatin with insulin via the femoral...

... and immunoreactive glucagon (IRG) were significantly elevated 10 min after hemorrhage (2.3 ml/100 g body weight over 5 min) whereas hyperglucagonemia was not detected in the antiserum-treated group until 30 min posthemorrhage. In animals which were deprived of water during the experiment, plasma IRG in the antiserum...
