Glucose tolerance and lactate utilization during fever 

 Quarto Jo Pharm, Pharmacol, 11; 34-45, I938 



When fever was induced in rabbits through subcutaneous 

 injections of a B, coli vaccine, oral glucose tolerance 

 was lowered. Peak levels of blood sugar far exceeded those 

 normally present. After glucose infusions, intially high 

 levels appeared, but normal blood sugar values quickly re- 

 turned. Lactate utilization was im.paired in such febrile 

 states, and the ability of the liver to form glycogen after 

 the administration of sodium dl-lactate was inhibited. 

 Insulin injections did not increase glycogen reserves in 

 the liver.
