Effects of captivity on glucose tolerance in dogs. 1979

F Lechin, and E Coll-Garcia, and B van der Dijs, and A Bentolila, and F Peña, and C Rivas

Captivity decreased tolerance to glucose and increased blood serotonin levels in 6 normal dogs investigated. Return to freedom brought normalization in the glucose tolerance test and reverted blood serotonin to control levels.

D012701 Serotonin A biochemical messenger and regulator, synthesized from the essential amino acid L-TRYPTOPHAN. In humans it is found primarily in the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and blood platelets. Serotonin mediates several important physiological functions including neurotransmission, gastrointestinal motility, hemostasis, and cardiovascular integrity. Multiple receptor families (RECEPTORS, SEROTONIN) explain the broad physiological actions and distribution of this biochemical mediator. 5-HT,5-Hydroxytryptamine,3-(2-Aminoethyl)-1H-indol-5-ol,Enteramine,Hippophaine,Hydroxytryptamine,5 Hydroxytryptamine
