✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Radioimmunoassay (RIA) procedures were used to determine whether or not insulin is present in the adult newt. The results show that measurable amounts of the hormone are present in samples ofpooled, fresh serum taken by cardiac puncture methods. We also found that there are no significant changes in the level of insulin in regenerating newts compared with intact animals.

## Abstract Cyclophosphamide (cytoxan), a clinical immunosuppressant, produced a marked, persistent leukopenia (> 40% reduction) in adult newts in contrast to a transient, milder leukopenia accompanying amputations without cytoxan treatments.
