STUDIES ON XANTHURENIC ACID

VIII. INTERACTIONS BETWEEN XANTHURENIC ACID AND ACETONE BODIES IN RAT

抄録

1. The formation of xanthurenic acid and that of acetone bodies are closely correlated. Increased xanthurenic acid never fails to lead to increased out-put of acetone bodies. This fact is of no small interest and encourages us to further studies on diabetic symptoms of rats caused by xanthurenic acid.
2. It has been made clear that both a proper quantity of anthranilic acid and of pyridoxine are capable to check the formation of acetone bodies in rat.
We wish to thank heartily to Prof. Yashiro Kotake, for his advice and revision and also heartily thank to Prof. Keizo Kodama, for his revision.
