A mechanism of the glycogenolytic action of bacterial endotoxin.

In contrast to the decreases in hepatic glycogen content effected by the administration of bacterial endotoxin in well nourished rats, the injection of the same quantity and lot of endotoxin into fasted rats resulted in a highly significant increase in mean hepatic glycogen content from 1.0 mg. per gin. of wet liver to 3.0 mg. per gm. of wet liver (P < 0.001).
