    Notes: Summary The effects of HB 699, a non-sulphonyl urea acyl-amino-alcyl benzoic acid derivative, were studied in unanaesthetized dogs. Changes in blood glucose and plasma insulin, glucagon, pancreatic polypeptide and somatostatin were measured after a single intravenous injection. HB 699 caused hypoglycaemia and stimulated insulin secretion in a dosedependent manner. The effects of HB 699 (40 mg/ kg) on pancreatic hormone secretion were compared to those of tolbutamide given at a dose (12 mg/kg) which induced a similar maximal hypoglycaemia. Both drugs caused a similar increase in insulin release (180±32% for tolbutamide and 240±41% for HB 699) lasting for approximately 1 hour. Despite hypoglycaemia, plasma glucagon concentrations were unaltered by either substance. HB 699 caused a marked increase in the secretion of pancreatic polypeptide (220±60% at 30 min) for up to 2 hours, whereas tolbutamide caused no significant change in plasma pancreatic polypeptide levels. In contrast, while tolbutamide caused a significant (45±12%) but short-lived increase in plasma somatostatin concentrations, HB 699 had no significant effect.

    Notes: Summary The effects of adrenaline and noradrenaline infusions on pancreaticoduodenal venous insulin output were studied in anaesthetized normal dogs. Two experimental protocols were used. In the first, the dogs had a normal blood glucose level at the start of the catecholamine infusion (normoglycaemic dogs). In the second, the animals were made hyperglycaemic by a continuous glucose infusion (hyperglycaemic dogs). In the normoglycaemic dogs, adrenaline (0.5 μg · kg-1 · min-1) provoked hyperglycaemia accompanied by an increase in insulin output. Noradrenaline (0.5 μg · kg-1 · min-1) also caused an increase in insulin output but without any significant change in blood glucose. In hyperglycaemic dogs, adrenaline (2 μg · kg-1 · min-1) reduced the insulin response and enhanced the hyperglycaemia; noradrenaline (2 μg · kg-1 · min-1) markedly increased the insulin response (+ 2250%) without any significant change in blood glucose. Propranolol (0.3 mg/kg, IV) prevented the increase of insulin induced by noradrenaline. These findings show that, in the normal dog, adrenaline and noradrenaline infusions can produce opposite effects on insulin response depending on the experimental conditions.
