Abstract
SummaryThe infusion of 0.01 pressor units Pitressin® per kilogram per hour produced a decrease in plasma FFA concentrations in healthy young men without changing blood glucose concentration. The effect was evident after 40 minutes of infusion and progressed to a value equal to 80% of baseline in one hour. These findings support the hypothesis that vasopressin may have contributed to the decreasing plasma concentrations of FFA of man noted concurrently with hypotension during a passive tilt after water immersion.The author wishes to express his gratitude to Dr. I. Arthur Mirsky for his helpful suggestions.
