1. The isolated rat diaphragm responds to increasing concentrations of pento-barbital with a marked diminution in respiration, an increased glucose uptake and a decreased glycogen concentration.

3. Under anaerobic conditions, the glucose uptake remains unchanged but the action of insulin is inhibited.
