Ethanol-induced changes in plasma glucose, insulin and glucagon in fed and fasted rats

  • Published:
Experientia Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Orally administered ethanol produced dose-related suppression of IRI levels and elevation of IRG levels in fed and fasting rats. Plasma glucose levels were unaffected in the fasting rats, but a moderate hyperglycemic response accompanied the decline in IRI and the rise in IRG observed in the fed rats.
