Involvement of the Catecholamine in Glucagon-Induced Thermogenesis in Duckling (Carina Moschata)

Physiological studies have shown that glucagon is a potential mediator of nonshiveringthermogenesis in birds. The present work was undertaken in order to investigatewhether the observed thermogenesis results from a direct action of glucagon onavian thermoregulatory mechanisms or in fact requires the...
