[FMRFa and FMRFamide-like peptides (FaRPs) in the pathogenesis of shock].
The cardioactive FMRFa is found in the several animal tissues but the action mechanism and the physiological role of FMRFa and FaRPs is unknown. Authors discussed the hypothesis that FMRFa and FaRPs may act as endogenous sympatoadrenal system modulators; sometimes they can act as adrenaline-like hormones. Their physiological significance may be more clear by the pathological and hypobiotics conditions.
