title: [Changes in liver and muscle glycogen in rats treated with serotonin].
abstract: The authors have put in evidence that the 5-HT (20 mg/Kg b.w.) injected intraperitoneally in four days fasting rats and drinking water, causes an almost complete glycogenolysis in liver and muscles. When the 5-HT is injected in four days fasting rats but drinking a water solution (20%) of glucose, the amount of glycogen, in both organs, is marked increased.
