[The role of sex steroids in the regulation of carbohydrate metabolism in rat lungs after a single whole-body cooling]. / Znachenie polovykh steroidov v reguliatsii uglevodnogo obmena v legkikh krysy pri obshchem odnokratnom okhlazhdenii organizma.

A single total body cooling was found to cause a more distinct alteration in carbohydrate metabolism in lung tissue of male rats as compared with female rats. These metabolic alterations were less distinct in castrated males. Preadministration of one of the sex hormones (testosterone, estradiol or progesterone) into the castrated males led to normalisation of carbohydrate metabolism in cooling; among the sex steroids estrogen was the most effective.

[Effect of sodium oxybutyrate on metabolic indices in ischemic hypoxia of muscle tissue]. / Vliianie natriia oksibutirata na nekotorye pokazateli metabolizma pri ishemicheskoi gipoksii myshechnoi tkani.

It has been demonstrated in experiments on rats with an ischemized hind limb that sodium hydroxybutyrate promoted activation of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase of the pentosophosphate cycle, prevented the changes in the content of lactic acid and activity of lactate dehydrogenase in the ischemized muscle, interfered with the development of metabolic acidosis during devascularization of the ischemized limb.
