title: Participation of the aortal nerve in reflectory release of 11-hydroxycorticosteroids during noradrenalinemia.
abstract: Intravenous infusion of 30 micrograms/kg noradrenaline (NA) produced reflectory pituitary-dependent release of 11-hydroxycorticosteroids (11-OHCS) in rabbits and sheep. It has been demonstrated that the afferent tract carrying the impulses stimulating this process runs from the circulatory system in aortal nerves (nn. depressores). The study has revealed the relationship between the increase in the plasmatic levels of 11-OHCS and endogenous adrenaline (A) during pharmacologically induced noradrenalinemia.
