The effect of human plasma on the glucose uptake of the rat diaphragm before and after administration of carbutamide.

The glucose uptake of the rat diaphragm has been determined in the presence of the plasma of young volunteers before and after administration of carbutamide without and with added insulin. The increase in the glucose uptake of the rat diaphragm due to the added plasma above that in the medium alone has been termed plasma effect. The increase in the glucose uptake of the rat diaphragm with plasma and added insulin above that with only insulin in the medium has been termed plasma+insulin effect. There was a significant increase in the plasma effect and the plasma+insulin effect after carbutamide administration. The increase in the plasma+insulin effect was significantly greater than the increase in the plasma effect. From these observations it has been suggested that carbutamide potentiates the action of insulin peripherally. Observed facts about carbutamide do not contradict this mechanism of action.

Carbutamide--the first oral antidiabetic. A retrospect.

This work describes the history of the first oral antidiabetic in East and West Germany. M. Janbon and A. Loubatières reported experimental and clinical findings about a blood sugar-decreasing effect of a sulphonamide derivate, sulphoisopropyl thiodiazol (1942). These findings, however, did not prove to be useful in the treatment of diabetes. In 1952 the author found a series of hypoglycemic shocks with the sulfonamid-urea derivate carbutamdide during clinical tests of infectious diseases. These were reported to the pharmaceutical company Von Heyden in Dresden. The head chemist E. Haack went with my files from East to West Germany, to Boehringer Mannheim. Without mentioning the synthesis in Dresden, he synthesized carbutamide in Mannheim. The hypoglycemic effect was rediscovered by his friend H. Franke together with J. Fuchs. It took twenty years until the results of the author's research were officially acknowledged.

[The effect of repeated applications of carbutamide on the embryonic development of the rat (author's transl)].

The present paper will check the effects of repeated applications of the oral "antidiabeticum" Carbutamide (substitute of the "sulfonylurea") on the embryonic development of wistar rats. The agent was given the pregnant animal by the means of a throat sonde at the 5th, 6th and 7th day post coitum suspended in Tween 80 in a dosage of 800 mg/kg bodyweight. In order to value the intrauterine development the following parameters were used: mean implantation rate, resorptions rate, bodyweight of fetuses, statemend of animalies by an accurate inspection of the body surface shape, of the skeleton and the inner organs. The rates of implantation do not differ from that of the control group. The rate of resorption increases dependend on the beginning of the treatment. The later the treatment begins the higher the resorptions rate. The body weight of surviving fetuses is diminished strongly. Damage of the skeleton appears as the presence of 14th ribs at one or each side or as ossifications at the 7th neck vertebra (neck rib). Also this results depend on the beginn of the treatment.
