Adrenergic innervation of the human parathyroid glands

K A Norberg et al. Acta Chir Scand. 1975.

Abstract

The sympathetic innervation of human parathyroid glands has been studied with fluorescence histochemistry. For the first time, sympathetic adrenergic nerve terminals could be demonstrated close to the endocrine cells. The morphological findings permit the conclusion that the adrenergic transmitter noradrenaline can reach a large part of the parenchymal cells, where it may possibly influence hormonal release.
