Abstract
Plasma insulin levels were measured in rabbits in response to pancreozymin and secretin. Suppression of intestinal hormone induced insulin secretion was attempted by pre-treatment with mannoheptulose and with 2-deoxy-D-glucose. The response to pancreozymin was not significantly altered by 2-deoxy-D-glucose, but was suppressed to a mean of 38.5% of control values by mannoheptulose. - Secretin did not induce insulin secretion in this model.
The data suggest that blockade of glycolysis interferes with pancreozymin-induced insulin release depending on the site of blockade.
