Journal ArticleDOI
Nitric oxide-related vasodilator responses to parasympathetic stimulation of the submandibular gland in the cat
A V Edwards,John R. Garrett +1 more
TL;DR: Results provide further support for the view that both acetylcholine and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide‐like immunoreactivity (VIP) are released from the postganglionic parasympathetic nerve terminals and produce effects on the blood vessels in submandibular glands of the cat.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of splanchnic nerve section on the sensitivity of the adrenal cortex to adrenocorticotrophin in the calf.
A V Edwards,C T Jones +1 more
TL;DR: The sensitivity of the adrenal steroidogenic response to ACTH was found to be substantially reduced 7 or more days after section of both splanchnic nerves in conscious 2‐6‐week‐old calves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secretion of corticotrophin releasing factor from the adrenal during splanchnic nerve stimulation in conscious calves.
A V Edwards,C T Jones +1 more
TL;DR: CRF isolated from adrenal venous effluent plasma was separated by reverse‐phase high‐pressure liquid chromatography and found to elute in a position identical to that of human 41CRF, suggesting that adrenal CRF is structurally closely similar to its pituitary counterpart.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural vasodilator control in the rectum of the cat and its possible mediation by vasoactive intestinal polypeptide.
TL;DR: Vascular and motor responses in the rectum to pelvic nerve stimulation are described in the anaesthetized cat and compared with corresponding effects observed in the colon, and VIP seems to be the most likely putative neurotransmitter responsible for non‐cholinergic rectal vasodilatation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parotid responses to stimulation of the parasympathetic innervation in bursts in weaned lambs.
TL;DR: The effects of stimulation of the peripheral end of the parotid nerve in 1 sec bursts at 10 sec intervals has been investigated in weaned Suffolk lambs 3‐4 months after birth.
