Adrenotropic Receptor in the Frog Atria

Abstract
|
|
|
1. On isolated atrial preparation of frog, effects of sympathomimetic amines were investigated.
2. Isoproterenol, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and phenylephrine produced positive chronotropic and inotropic effects. The relative potencies for the effects of these agents were: isoproterenol>epinephrine>norepinephrine>phenylephrine. Methoxamine had no effects or depressed the atria.
3. Pronethalol antagonized the positive effects of these adrenergic agents competitively.
4. Regitine did not affect the effects of these agents.
5. These data indicate that the adrenergic agents activate the atrial tissue of the frog via stimulation of adrenergic beta-receptor.
