- W2021474976 abstract "In an attempt to know the role of the pineal gland on glucose homeostasis, the blood plasma concentrations of glucose, insulin and glucagon under basal conditions or after the administration of nutrients were studied in the jugular vein of conscious pinealectomized (Pn), melatonin-treated pinealectomized (Pn + Mel) and control (C) rats. Glucose levels were smaller in C than in Pn rats, while immunoreactive insulin (IRI) concentrations were significantly greater in C than in Pn rats. Contrary to this, immunoreactive glucagon (IRG) levels were significantly greater in Pn than in C animals. Melatonin treatment of Pn rats induces an increase of IRI concentrations and a reduction in IRG levels. Similar changes were obtained when hormonal determinations were carried out in porta blood plasma. Although ether anesthesia increases circulating glucagon levels in the porta and cava veins, the qualitative changes of plasma insulin and glucagon in Pn and Pn + Mel were similar to those found in conscious rats. To determine the effects of nutrients on pancreatic hormone release, intravenous arginine or oral glucose were administered to the animals of the three experimental groups. In C rats, both glucose and IRI levels reached a peak 30 minutes after glucose ingestion, decreasing thereafter. However, in Pn rats a glucose intolerance was observed, with maximum glucose and insulin concentrations at 60 minutes, while in Pn + Mel animals, glucose and IRI concentrations were in between the data obtained with the other two groups. Furthermore, glucose ingestion induced a significant reduction of IRG levels in all the groups. Insulin response to intravenous arginine was smaller in Pn rats as compared with the other groups. Although basal IRG concentrations were greater in Pn animals, the hormone response to intravenous arginine was similar to that found in C rats. These results suggested that the pineal gland is necessary to maintain the circulating levels of insulin and glucagon and that the inversion of the insulin/glucagon ratio after pinealectomy could shift metabolic activities to a catabolic mode." @default.
