This chapter discusses the effect of insulin on glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis in the liver fluke Fasciola hepatica L. The liver fluke absorbs glucose from the incubation medium through its body wall at the rate of 0.075 mg/min/gr of wet weight, thereby increasing its glucose level, ...
Stages of preimplantation development measured included unfertilized oocytes through blastocyst-stage embryos. ATP concentrations remained constant through the 8-cell stage; then ATP decreased significantly (p < 0.025) at the morula stage and remained low through the blastocyst stage...doi...
Background and aims: Recent data suggest that the use of insulin to maintain intensive glycaemic control amongst surgical ICU patients can improve morbidity and mortality. The value of this procedure in non-surgical patients is not known. Current insulin therapy for non-surgical patients in many IC...
Effect of Epinephrine on Glucose Uptake and Glycerol Release by Adipose Tissue in vitro Summary Epinephrine increases glucose uptake of adipose tissue incubated in vitro. This effect is common to both insulin and epinephrine. However, epinephrine increases and insulin decreases release of free fatty ...
1. The effect of glucose on 86Rb+ efflux, 45Ca2+ net uptake and insulin secretion of pancreatic islets from 3- and 24-month-old rats was studied. 2. Raising the glucose concentration from 3 to 5.6 and 16.7 mM had no effect on 86Rb+ efflux from islets of 24-month-old male rats ...
Effect of age and high sucrose diet on 2-deoxyglucose uptake in perfused hindlimb. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate insulin-stimulated skeletal muscle glucose uptake in male Fischer 344 rats, age 6, 12, and 27 mo, fed eit... Eiffert Kristin C.,Stern Judith S.,Horwitz Bar...
Effect of corticosterone on carbamylcholine-, leucine-, or calcium-induced insulin secretion by the isolated perfused rat pancreas Using the isolated pancreas of male Sprague-Dawley rats, three different concentrations of glucose were tested in the perfusion medium: 4.0, 6.7, and 9.4 mM. The insuli...
Isolated pancreatic islets of normal hamsters were perifused either in a closed or in a open system. When the buffer was recirculated and the endogenous insulin was allowed to accumulate, the islets secreted significantly less insulin than when the system was open and the endogenous insulin was wa...
Effect of conjugation to glucose on the uptake of 17 beta-(6,7-3-H)estradiol by rabbit liver subcellular fractions D G.Williamson,D S.Layne - 《Biochemical & Biophysical Research Communications》 被引量: 0发表: 1975年 The metabolism of testosterone by the periwinkle ( Littorina littorea ) ...
We have previously shown that glucose metabolism plays an important role in modifying intestinal fatty acid esterification. Because it is well known that glucose metabolism is under insulin regulation, we examined the effect of insulin on intestinal fatty acid esterification. Insulin pretreatment led to...
