title: Adrenergic modulation of pancreatic glucagon and insulin secretion in goats.
abstract: Five goats were used to investigate adrenergic influences on the secretion of both glucagon and insulin. The secretion of glucagon was augmented via alpha-adrenergic stimulation. The secretion of insulin was enhanced by stimulation of beta-adrenergic receptors and inhibited by alpha-adrenergic stimulation.
