Abstract: | The cyclic GMP derivative, 8-bromo cyclic GMP, increases the uptake of D-xylose and of 2-deoxy D-glucose into intact rat diaphragm incubated in vitro. 8-Bromo cyclic GMP does not stimulate the incorporation of 14C]glucose into glycogen in the diaphragm, or the uptake of alphalpha-amino isobutyric acid into this tissue. The effect of 8-bromo cyclic GMP on the diaphragm is consistent with the hypothesis that cyclic GMP plays a role in the regulation of sugar transport in muscle. |
