“ Tyramine (1mM) increased the adenosine … presence of 100 μM adenosine 5'-monophosphate , an increase which was inhibited by antagonist of the α(1)-adrenoceptors (prazosin, 50 μM) or of a protein …, 10 μM), and in reserpinized rats, tyramine failed to increase the adenosine 5'-monophosphate-primed dialysate adenosine concentration.”
