title: [Influence of feeding rhythm on blood insulin in growing rats].
abstract: Plasma insulin in ad libitum fed growing rats increases during dark hours and decreases during light hours. In contrast, meal fed growing rats [6 equal meals at regular interval during the day] exhibit a constant plasma insulin level. It may be inferred that improvement of nitrogen retention in meal fed rats is not related to an increase in insulin secretion.
