Adrenaline has been shown to inhibit the release of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) elicited by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) when tested in vitro on cultured human blood cells and rat macrophages. In this report we have examined the effect of the in vivo administration of adrenaline on TNF serum levels
Adrenaline is a catecholamine hormone secreted by the adrenal medulla in response to acute stress. Previous studies have shown that adrenaline suppresses the nitric oxide (NO) response of murine macrophages (M phi s) stimulated in vitro with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). We have now extended these
BACKGROUND
It is often maintained that a local anaesthetic (usually lidocaine) with adrenaline must not be used in fingers and toes because it may cause necrosis due to vascular spasm in end arteries. This review article is an attempt to find evidence to support this warning.
METHODS

The effect of a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation, BL-3459, on adrenaline-induced myocardial necrosis was investigated in beagle dogs. BL-3459, an alpha-adrenergic receptor blocking agent, phenoxybenzamine, and a beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent, propranolol, were compared for their
The influence of inosine (200 and 400 mg/kg i.p.) on adrenaline-induced myocardial necrosis in rats was studied. Adrenaline in a single dose (1 and 2 mg/kg s.c.) produced heart cell necrosis estimated by plasma activities of CPK-MB, CPK, blood lactates concentration and histopathological
The effects of adrenaline and isoproterenol, a specific beta-adrenergic agonist, on TNF production were investigated. Both agents inhibited the production of TNF by human blood and THP-1 cells stimulated by LPS. The effect of adrenaline was prevented by a beta-receptor antagonist, but not by an
