Abstract

Abstract: The effect of alloxan diabetes on the activities of Na+,K+‐ATPase and Mg2+‐ATPase was studied in three regions of rat brain at various time intervals after the onset of diabetes. It was observed that Na2+,K2+‐ATPase activity increased at early time intervals after diabetes, followed by a recovery to near control levels in all three regions of the brain. There was an overall increase in Mg2+‐ATPase activity in all the regions. A reversal of the effect was observed with insulin administration to the diabetic rats
