The relationship between gluconeogenesis from alanine and insulin, glucagon, cortisol and catecholamines after stomach resection.
A hormonal influence on gluconeogenesis after stomach resection was sought by correlating the degree of carbon flux from alanine to glucose with the plasma levels of insulin, glucagon, adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol and with the urinary excretion of catecholamines, (nor)metanephrines and cortisol. No correlation was found, suggesting that none of these hormones has a dominant influence on gluconeogenesis after stomach resection.
