Metabolic actions of vasopressin, glucagon and adrenalin in the intact rat
Abstract
Metabolic effects of vasopressin, glucagan and adrenalin were compared, in intact rats, especially in regard to time courses of effects. Hyperglycaemia was transient in response to vasopressin, prolonged following adrenalin, and, suprisingly, was not discernible after glucagon, except in response to a very large dose. Vasopressin decreased and adrenalin increased, the plasma free fatty acid concentration; both hormones decreased the triacylglycerol level. Muscle glycogen concentrations, measured in heart, diaphragm and skeletal muscle, exhibited small changes, with complex time courses, following hormone administration. Vasopressin brought about a rapid but transient activation of heaptic glycogen phosphorylase which resembled that due to adrenalin. The activation by glucagon of phosphorylase was greater and more prolonged, despite the absence of hyperglycaemia. In response to vasopressin, there was in increase in plasma insulin. Incorporation of 14C from [14C]glucose into glycogen or fatty acids was not influenced by vasopressin. Taken together, these results may be explained by rapid metabolic action of vasopressin on hepatic glycogenolysis, whereas adrenalin has multiple prolonged actions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
