Abstract
The release of catecholamines from the rat adrenal medulla caused by insulin-hypoglycemia was blocked by noradrenaline without affecting hypoglycemia. It is suggested that release of catecholamines from the adrenal cells may be regulated by α-adrenoceptors, similar to the mechanism described for adrenergic nerve endings.
