24 Hour changes in catecholamine content of rat thyroid and submaxillary glands
The occurrence of diurnal rhythmicity in tissue norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E) and dopamine (DA) levels of rat thyroid and submaxillary glands was assessed in animals killed at eight time intervals during a 24 hour period. In both tissues significant peak values of NE content were found at the...
