Levels of cyclic 3′-5′-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in maintenance cultures of rat hepatocytes in response to insulin and glucagon

  • Published:

Abstract

Under conditions of short-term stimulation of lipogenesis by insulin in maintenance cultures of hepatocytes from starved rats, basal levels of cyclic 3′-5′-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) are invariant. Glucagon signals increased levels of cAMP and severely diminishes lipogenesis. Insulin partially counteracts both glucagon effects.
