Abstrakt: The effect of glucagon on upper urinary tract peristalsis during extreme diuresis was studied in an unsedated dog preparation. In all experiments glucagon inhibited the peristaltic contraction waves without affecting urine propulsion, suggesting that peristalsis, at least for short periods, is not necessary for effective urine transport during extreme diuresis.
