[Effect of maltose, following long-term intravenous infusion, on the metabolism]. 1976

G Berg, and F Matzkies

6 healthy subjects received a 20% electrolyte containing maltose solution over a period of 6 hours. The concentration of maltose rose up to 109 (76-215 mg/100 ml). During the infusion period 3,7 (1,9-7,7) g maltose were excreted. The concentration of glucose and insulin was not altered, although the renal glucose loss was 20,2 (7,5-38,7) g. In the same period 49,8 +/- 13,2 mval potassium and 135,4 +/- 35 mval sodium were eliminated. Maltose induced an osmotic diuresis which was not caused by hyperglycemia. Such a type of osmotic substance has not been described before.

D007275 Injections, Intravenous Injections made into a vein for therapeutic or experimental purposes. Intravenous Injections,Injection, Intravenous,Intravenous Injection
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).
