Abstract
Adrenaline, arginine vasopressin, arginine vasotocin, and glucagon, all at 10 −6 M, stimulate glycogen breakdown and glucose release from hepatic tissue of Neoceratodus forsteri cultured in vitro. Adrenaline acts via a β-adrenergic receptor in this species. Gluconeogenesis from 2 m M lactate occurred at a rate of 680 ± 39 nmol/g liver/h. This rate of gluconeogenesis was unaffected by the addition of 10 −6 M adrenaline.
