Inhibition by PGE2 and by phenylephrine of catecholamine release from human adrenal in vitro

Inhibition by PGE2 and by phenylephrine of catecholamine release from human adrenal in vitro

P Boonyaviroj et al. Eur J Pharmacol. .

Abstract

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