Title: Neuronal accumulation and metabolism of 3H-1-norepinephrine in rat portal vein: evidence in relation to possible uneven alpha receptor distribution. Author: Takimoto GS, Cho AK, Bevan JA. Journal: Experientia; 1977 Mar 15; 33(3):370-2. PubMed ID: 858371. Abstract: The rate of accumulation and metabolism of 3H-1-norepinephrine in the neuronal plexus of rat portal vein produces a small transmitter concentration gradient across the longitudinal smooth muscle layer which cannot account for the prejunctional supersensitivity observed and suggests localization of the alpha-adrenergic receptors adjacent to the nerve plexus.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
