hexamethonium and Hyperinsulinism

hexamethonium has been researched along with Hyperinsulinism in 5 studies

Hexamethonium: A nicotinic cholinergic antagonist often referred to as the prototypical ganglionic blocker. It is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and does not cross the blood-brain barrier. It has been used for a variety of therapeutic purposes including hypertension but, like the other ganglionic blockers, it has been replaced by more specific drugs for most purposes, although it is widely used a research tool.

Hyperinsulinism: A syndrome with excessively high INSULIN levels in the BLOOD. It may cause HYPOGLYCEMIA. Etiology of hyperinsulinism varies, including hypersecretion of a beta cell tumor (INSULINOMA); autoantibodies against insulin (INSULIN ANTIBODIES); defective insulin receptor (INSULIN RESISTANCE); or overuse of exogenous insulin or HYPOGLYCEMIC AGENTS.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Losartan-treated (LOS group, n = 10) and untreated rats served as controls (n = 11)."1.35Hyperinsulinemic rats are normotensive but sensitized to angiotensin II. ( Alexanderson, C; Andersson, IJ; Bergström, G; Holmäng, A; Johansson, ME; Skøtt, O, 2008)
"Moreover, the hyperinsulinemia is mediated in part by prostaglandins just like the well-studied febrile response."1.28Central interleukin 1-elicited hyperinsulinemia is mediated by prostaglandins but not autonomics. ( Cornell, RP, 1989)
