“The activation of alpha 1-adrenergic receptors phenylephrine ) caused an increase in the blood concentrations of ACTH and cortisol, whereas the blockade of alpha 1-adrenergic receptors (prazosin) induced an essential decrease in the concentrations of these hormones in blood of the persons investigated at various age.”
“Epinephrine, norepinephrine, phenylephrine , clonidine, B-HT933, and B-HT920 caused a significant and dose-related increase of the ACTH concentration in the serum.”
“Both methozamine and phenylephrine lowered the very high levels of cyclic AMP that were produced by high concentrations of isoproterenol (10 muM) or ACTH (100 MU/ml), and partially inhibited lipolysis.”
