title: Effects of autonomic drugs on intraluminal pressure and excretion of rat seminal vesicles in vivo.
abstract: The effects of intravenously administered autonomic drugs on the intraluminal pressure and the excretion volume of the seminal vesicles in rats were studied. Both alpha 1-adrenergic and cholinergic stimulants produced a rapid increase in pressure and fluid excretion. alpha 1-Adrenergic stimulants elicited a sharp and single increase in pressure, while cholinergic stimulants caused a sharp increase with multiple peaks.
