Auszug: ...of the same order, which were interpreted as indicating a period of hyperactivity of the newly formed hepatic cells, were reported by Whipple, Peightal and Clark7 on an increased phenoltetrachlorphthalein Output of the liver following repair after poisoning, and by Whipple and Hurwitz" in regard to fibrinogen. It is certain that hyperactivity on the part of the regenerated hepatic parenchyma plays an important role in the increased utilization of sugar by the recovering rabbits. On the other hand, additional factors such as increased activity of the pancreas and of the tissues may also be at work. It seems probable that the compensatory f unction that the muscles and the pancreas exercise during the period of hepatic insufficiency may materially contribute to the observed hypoglycemia if this compensatory mechanism once established does not recede with the same rapidity as regeneration of the liver progresses. It is of interest that the glycogen content of the liver at this stage of recovery is still very low. Three rabbits were given reinjections of the same dose of Chloroform after recovery. Two of these animals (717 and 825) were dead fortyeight hours later. The third animal (801) lived and went through the 7. Whipple, G. H.; Peightal, T. C, and Clark, A.
