title: [Retention of noradrenaline by the rat endometrial epithelium. Action of estradiol].
abstract: The application of the cytochemical fluorescence method on uterine samples obtained from spayed rats, injected with ascorbic acid, oestradiol, norspinephrine and oestradiol plus norepinephrine, permits the visualization of an extraneuronal uptake of norepinephrine by the luminal and glandular epithelium of the rat endometrium. The enhancing of the oestradiol uptake exerted by norepinephrine could be explained in this case by a direct action of norepinephrine on the target cell.
