Central Effects of Ethanol on Plasma Glucose Level in the Hen
|

Abstract
|
|
|
The present experiments were undertaken in an attempt to elucidate the central effect of ethanol on the plasma glucose level in the hen.
After intravenous administration of 30mg/kg ethanol to control group, plasma gl-ucose concentration was not affected but over 100mg/kg, it induced hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemic effect of intravenous ethanol was potentiated by adrenergic blocking agents.
Intraventricular administration of 30mg/kg ethanol resulted in a significant incr-ease in the plasma glucose level, and this hyperglycemic effect of intraventricular ethanol was inhibited by regitine, propranolol, or reserpine.
It suggests that metabolic effect of ethanol on the plasma glucose concentration in the hen is mediated partially by the activation of sympathetic center.
