RESPONSES OF THE VASCULAR SYSTEM IN RELATION TO THE HORMONE BACKGROUND.

Abstract

After chronic sympathectomy in the dog, adrenaline infusions restore oxytocin vasodilation up to the 11th day. Even when nerve transmission has recovered (day 204) the normal response to adrenaline was not seen. Marked changes in plasma cation and water concentrations do not affect the response to oxytocin, which is also unrelated to the adrenals and to beta blockade. (Author)
