  • I am mistakenly supposed to have described a diabetogenic hormone.

  • This work, done in 1930, showed that: (a) the anterior lobe of the hypophysis has an important part in the physiological control of metabolism; (b) the hypophysis is a factor conditioning the severity of diabetes; (c) the injection of anterior lobe of the hypophysis has a diabetogenic effect.

  • The diabetogenic effect of the hypophysis was first observed in animals in which both the hypophysis and the pancreas had been removed.

  • In the toad and in the dog, adrenalectomy diminishes but does not suppress the diabetogenic effect of the anterior lobe extract, which can be obtained in adrenalectomized dogs, in which the pancreas has been surgically reduced, and which are kept alive by treatment with desoxycorticosterone and salt or even with sodium chloride alone.
