SUMMARY
Alloxan-diabetic rats produce significantly less granulation tissue than normal ones. Locally applied growth hormone (STH), which stimulates granulation tissue in normal rats, lost this ability in diabetic animals. Adrenalectomized alloxan-diabetic rats also fail to respond by increased granulation tissue growth to STH. The stimulation of granulation tissue by STH seems to depend on an adequate supply of insulin.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
