Abstract
SummaryRate of liver phosphorylase activity is decreased in fasted, adrenalectomized rats. Cortisone acetate administered at levels of 5, 2.5 or 1.25 mg/100 g body weight increased this activity above that of controls, the latter dosage only slightly above control level. Since glucose-6-phosphatase activity is also reported to be increased it is suggested that these 2 enzymatic effects may represent response to increased production of glucose precursors from peripheral protein.
