  • Title: Hydroxyindole-O-methyl-transferase activity: effect of sympathetic nerve stimulation.
    Author: Brownstein MJ, Heller A.
    Journal: Science; 1968 Oct 18; 162(3851):367-8. PubMed ID: 5677531.
    Abstract:
    Stimulation of the preganglionic nerve trunk to the superior cervical ganglion causes a reduction in pineal hydroxyindole-O-methyl-transferase levels which is time-dependent. The results provide direct evidence for a role of afferent input in the control of pineal enzymatic activity.
