Source sentences
NAD+ infusion into the portal vein (antegrade perfusion) produced a concentration-dependent (25-100 microM) transient inhibition of oxygen uptake and gluconeogenesis.

For both parameters inhibition was followed by stimulation.
Hemoglobin-free rat liver perfusion in antegrade and retrograde modes was used with enzymatic determination of glucose production and polarographic assay of oxygen uptake.
