Adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations in rat tissues.
نویسنده
چکیده
Noradrenaline and adrenaline concentrations have been little studied in rat tissues; this paper deals with their estimation by an extension ofthe method of Weil-Malherbe & Bone (1952, 1953, 1954) for blood; a brief report has already been presented (Montagu, 1955). The results do not appear to support the current hypothesis that the concentration of noradrenaline can be correlated with the density of adrenergic-nerve fibres (Euler, 1951b, 1954). The proportions ofadrenaline in the mixtures ofnoradrenaline and adrenaline are both higher and rnoreuniformthanthose usuallyfound (Mirkin, 1953; Euler, 1954; Mirkin & Bonnycastle, 1954).

The analgesic effect of a local anesthetic is often insufficient in acutely inflamed tissues, due to the reduced pH and/or vasodilation. Thus, vasoconstrictors (adrenaline or noradrenaline) are often used to contain the anesthetic and prolong the analgesia, although there are minimal data regarding their effects in inflamed tissues. Therefore, we prepared a model of blood vessel inflammation (u...

The concentrations and alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine (alpha-MPT) induced disappearance of catecholamines, adrenaline, noradrenaline and dopamine, were measured in selected areas of the brainstem and hypothalamus of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertensive rats. The catecholamine levels were measured by a sensitive radioenzymatic assay method combi...

The regulation of dopamine and serotonin synthesis in rat brain striatal synaptosomes has been studied using HPLC methods. Noradrenaline was shown to markedly inhibit both the synthesis of dopamine and serotonin. The response of the synaptosomes to the concentrations of noradrenaline appeared to be biphasic, a very effective inhibition occurring at low concentrations (1-5 µm) and a relativ...

In patients with myocardial infarction, with or without cardiogenic shock, plasma noradrenaline and adrenaline concentrations are increased. However, plasma noradrenaline concentrations are considerably higher in patients with cardiogenic shock when compared with those with uncomplicated myocardial infarction. Plasma noradrenaline and adrenaline concentrations showed a sustained increase until ...
