TY - GEN A1 - Püschel, Gerhard Paul A1 - Nath, Annegret A1 - Jungermann, Kurt T1 - Increase of urate formation by stimulation of sympathetic hepatic nerves, circulating noradrenaline and glucagon inthe perfused rat liver N2 - In the isolated rat liver perfused in situ stimulation of the nerve bundles around the portal vein and the hepatic artery caused an increase of urate formation that was inhibited by the α1-blocker prazosine and the xanthine oxidase inhibitor allopurinol. Moreover, nerve stimulation increased glucose and lactate output and decreased perfusion flow. Infusion of noradrenaline had similar effects. Compared to nerve stimulation infusion of glucagon led to a less pronounced increase of urate formation and a twice as large increase in glucose output but a decrease in lactate release without affecting the flow rate. Insulin had no effect on any of the parameters studied.
