The amount of protocatechuic acid glucoside in the left colleterial gland changes with the reproductive cycle. Allatectomy, beheading and injection of actinomycin D cause inhibition of the accumulation of glucoside, but glucoside resumes to accumulate in the left colleterial gland with the reimplantation of corpora allata into the allatectomized cockroaches. When C-glucose was injected in normal animals, radioactive glucoside was accumulated in the left colleterial gland whereas in the allatectomized cockroaches, it was not accumulated in the gland but was found abundantly in blood. The level of protocatechuic acid glucoside synthetase activity of the fat body tissue and of the left colleterial gland was assayed. The enzyme activity in the left colleterial gland was not affected by allatectomy but that in the fat body was slightly affected. The mechanism of accumulation of protocatechuic acid glucoside in the left colleterial gland and the endocrine control on the accumulation are discussed.
左输卵管腺中原儿茶酸葡萄糖苷的含量随生殖周期而变化。切除咽侧体、断头以及注射放线菌素D均会抑制葡萄糖苷的积累，但将咽侧体重新植入切除咽侧体的蟑螂体内后，葡萄糖苷会在左输卵管腺中重新开始积累。当向正常动物注射碳-葡萄糖时，放射性葡萄糖苷会在左输卵管腺中积累，而在切除咽侧体的蟑螂体内，它不会在腺体内积累，而是大量存在于血液中。对脂肪体组织和左输卵管腺中原儿茶酸葡萄糖苷合成酶活性水平进行了测定。左输卵管腺中的酶活性不受切除咽侧体的影响，而脂肪体中的酶活性则受到轻微影响。文中讨论了左输卵管腺中原儿茶酸葡萄糖苷的积累机制以及对该积累的内分泌控制。
