Abstract
A decrease of both hypothalamic and cortical CCK occurred in the brain of rats killed 8 hours after hepatic artery ligation following portocaval anastomosis. Brain CCK depletion was not reproduced by exogenously provoked hyperammonemia nor by insulin-induced hypoglycemia, thus suggesting a central mechanism for the derangement of the CCKergic system in the course of acute liver failure.File in questo prodotto:
