“In the LWS line, norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine , and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetate concentrations decreased in the brain in a linear and quadratic manner in response to reserpine , but not in the HWS line.”

“A marked (75-90%) depletion of neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactivity and adrenaline in the adrenal gland, concomitant with 3-4-fold increases in neuropeptide Y mRNA and tyrosine hydroxylase mRNA expression, was present at 24 h after reserpine treatment.”
“The low dose of reserpine in the passerine (common myna and bulbul) birds resulted in 40-84% reduction of both norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (E) from the adrenal glands irrespective of its nerve supply.”

“Denervation, reserpine and cortex-one blocked the accumulation of adrenaline , whereas U-0521 was the only drug to increase accumulation of adrenaline.”
“Removal of adrenaline was significantly reduced by pretreatment with cortexone, cocaine, phenoxybenzamine and reserpine or by surgical denervation of the limb; enzymatic inhibition by iproniazid or U-0521 had no significant effect on removal.”

“The responses to adrenaline and noradrenaline were markedly potentiated in the presence of monoamine oxidase inhibitors, guanethidine or reserpine , indicating the presence of MAO activity in the tissue and possibly catecholamine stores.”

“The results obtained in this study would support the view that reserpine may increase the sensitivity of beta receptor to isoprenaline and adrenaline by the mechanism which may be independent of the uptake of catecholamines in the sympathetic nervous system.”
