“ MTX treatment was also associated with a significant reduction of glucose and insulin serum concentrations in diabetic mice (P < 0.001), and glucose levels only (P < 0.05) in controls.”

“On the other hand, amethopterin decrcased the coulombic output from glucose.”
“The preccnt depression of columbic output of glucose by amethopterin was found to be equivalent to the extent to which glucose is reported to be metabolized via the shunt pathway.”
“The injection of sarcolysine, methotrexate , thiophosphamide, cyclophosphamide, adryamycin and platidinum during glucose infusion is shown to increase their antitumour activity.”
“1 hour prior to methotrexate prevented the inhibition of transmucosal transport of both glucose and tyrosine.”
“Administration of glucose (0.5/g/kg. i/p.) 1 hour prior to methotrexate prevented the inhibition of transmucosal transport of both glucose and tyrosine.”
“ Glucose also reduced the body weight loss caused by methotrexate.”
“The data suggest that coadministration of glucose with methotrexate may have a potential clinical value, since glucose may alleviate the toxic effects of methotrexate in patients receiving this drug.”

“Using the everted sac technique, the rates of D-glucose and L-tyrosine transport were decreased by MTX to 10.9 and 6.3 mumol/g/h from control values of 35.0 and 10.0 mumol/g/h, respectively.”
“However, glucose or azide increased the fraction of dihydrofolate reductase associated with methotrexate and abolished the effect of tetrahydrofolates on this intracellular component.”
