title: The effect of glucagon on intestinal lymph flow in rats.
abstract: Intravenous injection of a bolus of 5 microgram of glucagon to rats with an intestinal lymph fistula produces a marked, transient rise in lymph flow and protein output from the fistula. The effect is presumably the result of brief enhancement of splanchnic blood flow.
