[Time course of blood glucose levels in rats after intraperitoneal injection of a dose of serotonin].
The injection of 20 mg/Kg of serotonin intraperitoneally, in rats, elicits a progressive and marked increase of blood glucose after 30, 60 and 90 minutes. These results, according with previous experiments of the same authors, put yet in evidence that the serotonin has a clear influence on glucose metabolism.
