Abstract

Comparative study of the effect of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (DBcAMP) and glucagon on carbohydrate metabolism was carried out in rats with D-galactosamine (GalN) induced hepatitis.
It was showed that DBcAMP was more effective on gluconeogenesis than that glucagon. On the contrary, it was showed that glucagon was more effective on glycogenolysis than that DBcAMP, suggesting the different mechanism between DBcAMP and glucagon on carbohydrate metabolism in GalN treated rats.
These data suggest the effects of DBcAMP on the prevention of disturbance of hepatic carbohydrate and energy metabolism in rats with GalN induced hepatitis.
