Abstract
The release of catecholamines from human adrenal was studied by in vitro incubation of slices. Catecholamines release was significantly inhibited by the addition of either phenylephrine (10-5 M) or PGE2 (10-7) to the incubation medium. The similarity of these modulating actions to those found in rat adrenal is discussed.
