[The influence of glucagon on post-heparin plasma lipolytic activity in normal rats and in rats with diabetes induced by alloxan injection].

The authors compared the effect of glucagon on the post-heparinic lipolytic activity in normal and alloxan induced diabetic rats. Within their experimental conditions, it was considered that an injury of the cell stimulates a decrease of the glucagon-stimulating activity on the lipoprotein lipase: this hormone does not seem to have a direct action on the PHLA but an indirect one by the way of the insulin secretion it induces.
