RT Journal A1 Bressler R, Cordon M, Brendel K T1 STudies on the role of adenylcyclase in insulin secretion JF Archives of Internal Medicine JO Archives of Internal Medicine YR 1969 FD March 1 VO 123 IS 3 SP 248 OP 251 DO 10.1001/archinte.1969.00300130030005 UL http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/archinte.1969.00300130030005 AB The administration of glucose, tolbutamide, corticotropin, and glucagon to mice resulted in stimulation of insulin secretion. These stimulations were all inhibited by the prior administration of β-adrenergic receptor blocking agents. Cyclic 3',5' adenosine monophosphate stimulated insulin secretion in intact mice and its stimulatory effect was also inhibited by β-adrenergic receptor blocking agents. The locus of the inhibitory effects of β-adrenergic receptor blocking agents on insulin secretion is discussed.
