The output of amylase into saliva secreted after injection of methacholine or substance P was increased after parasympathetic denervation, but the salivary concentration of amylase was unchanged. The increased output corresponded to the increased flow. Isoprenaline injected during the methacholine-induced secretion raised the output, more being secreted from the denervated than from the contralateral gland. Vasoactive intestinal peptide, given while substance P caused salivation, also increased the amylase output, but equally from the two glands.
