title: Isoprenaline induces biosynthesis of proline-rich proteins in the salivary glands of rat but not in sheep.
abstract: Long-term treatment of rats with isoprenaline resulted in induction of proline-rich proteins (PRPs) in the salivary glands, which were subsequently purified by TCA solubility and column chromatography. When rats were removed from beta-agonist regimen, then these proteins were no longer observed. Treatment of sheep with isoprenaline did not reveal the induction of PRPs.
