Epinephrine distribution in human brain.
The distribution of epinephrine (E) in human brain has been analyzed by a previously described [11] liquid chromatographic method. E, though detectable in most areas sampled, was found to be highly localized in those areas previously known to contain highest norepinephrine (NE) concentrations [4]. The regions found to be highest in E concentration were the ventromedial, dorsomedial, supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus.
