Abstract:
Previous experiments have put in evidence that the 5-HT injected intraperitoneally in rats elicits remarkable variations of some enzymatic activities of glycolytic pathways and it is an iperglicemic factor as in function of dose that of time. For that the AA. have measured the glycemia in different starting glicemic conditions, to control if the 5-HT effect persists. The results have evidenced the 5-HT effect (20 mg/kg i.p.) there is also in fasting rats as drinking water as a water solution of glucose (20%).
