Journal ArticleDOI
In vivo inhibition of the rate of de novo purine synthesis in rat liver by glucagon.
TL;DR: It is suggested that an intravenous bolus of glucagon inhibits the rate of de novo purine synthesis through increasing cAMP concentration, which is consistent with inhibition of amidophosphoribosyltransferase (ATase) in spite of increased PRPP concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of neuromedin B and GRP-10 on gastrin and insulin release from cultured tumor cells of a malignant gastrinoma.

TL;DR: The results might suggest that receptor function for the bombesin family peptides is abnormal in gastrinoma cells in both primary and metastatic tumors, and that a major source of insulin secretary cells is the contaminated normal islet cells in the primary tumor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibitory effects of 1.ALPHA., 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol on parathyroid hormone secretion in rats.
TL;DR: In rats, a physiological dose of 1alpha, 25(OH)2D3 inhibits PTH secretion without causing a significant rise iu serum calcium, reflecting a feed-back mechanism between active vitamin D metabolite, 1 alpha, 25 (OH) 2D3 and the parathyroid glands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting long-term glycemic control of post-educational type II diabetic patients by evaluating serum 1,5-anhydroglucitol levels.

TL;DR: Determination of serum 1,5-AG levels of patients with type II diabetes before and after a trial home stay following educational hospitalization was found to be useful in identifying patients at high risk of recurrence of poor glycemic control in the future.
