[Endocrine-metabolic relations in rats with genetic arterial hypertension].

Levels of triiodothyronine, thyroxine, insulin, glucose and free fatty acids in the blood; contents of adrenaline, noradrenaline in adrenals and glycogen in the liver; activity of phenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase in adrenals, hexokinase and glucose-6-phosphatase in the liver were studied in male Wistar rats and rats with inherited stress-induced arterial hypertension /ISIAH/. It was found that genetically caused rise of hypophyseal-thyroid systems activity in ISIAH-rats leads to a decrease of insulin blood level, activation of lipolysis and breach of glucose tolerance.
