title: Effects of dibutyryl-cANP on glycolysis in washed human erythrocytes.
abstract: The experiments were carried out with washed human erythrocytes in order to study the effects of dibutyryl-cAMP (DB-cAMP) on glycolysis. 5 mM DB-cAMP significantly increases glucose consumption and lactate production in incubated erythrocytes. The cross-over plot of glycolytic intermediates shows that increased glycolysis is probably the result of activation of phosphofructokinase by DB-cAMP. Under the same condition DB-cAMP significantly protects the 2,3-diphosphoglycerate level in incubated erythrocytes.
