Abstract:
:Severe fasting hypoglycemia and hypoinsulinemia occurred in a sixty-six year old woman with an intrahepatic mesenchymal tumor. An extract from the tumor was potent in inhibiting the arginine-induced glucagon secretion from the isolated perfused porcine pancreas. This observation supports the theory recently advanced that mesenchymal tumor hypoglycemia in some cases is due to a still unknown factor secreted from the tumor, which directly inhibits pancreatic glucagon secretion.
