[Structural and functional interrelations between the liver and endocrine system of the pancreas in disorders of corticosteroid balance].
Experiments on male rats have shown that correlative interrelationships of the liver and endocrine apparatus of the pancreas depend on the content of corticosteroids in the body. The administration of a physiological dose of hydrocortisone raises the synthesis of RNA, phospholipids and glycogen in the liver accompanied by B-insulocyte hypertrophy. Large hormone doses result in the suppression of protein synthesis in hepatocytes with further development of fatty degeneration of the liver and hypofunction of pancreatic islet B-cells. Corticosteroid deficiency causes metabolic derangement of hepatocytes, a rise of the quantity and synthetic activity of pancreatic A-cells which can be corrected by means of hydrocortisone substitution therapy.
