Glucose-6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.9) activity in kidney and liver was found to be markedly elevated 3 hr after a single large dose of fluoride (NaF, 35 mg/kg, i.p.). The increases in renal and hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase activity were completely suppressed by adrenalectomy. Moreover, the increments were markedly suppressed by injection of dibenamine as an alpha-adrenergic blocker or by injection of propranolol as a beta-adrenergic blocker.
