0 a hormone (= chemical substance) produced by the body when a person is frightened, angry, or excited, which makes the heart beat faster and prepares the body to react to danger --
The use of adrenaline (epinephrine), on the other hand, induced a metabolic change which made oocytes cytoplasmically mature.
The present results concerning the effect of adrenaline on nuclear maturation would support this mechanism of action.
Challenge or risk, something to literally get their adrenaline pumping, can be key to keeping their attention and to eliciting optimum performance.
However, pretreatment of the follicles with adrenaline resulted in a significant inhibition of progesteroneinduced nuclear maturation while, with noradrenaline, this inhibition was markedly lower.
However, pretreatment with adrenaline caused a significant inhibition of progesterone-induced meiotic resumption while, with noradrenaline, inhibition was noticeably lower.
A normal cardiac rhythm and output was established after administration of adrenaline via an endotracheal tube.
The exceptions to the switch are adrenaline and noradrenaline, where manufacturers will be encouraged to use both names on product packaging and literature.
Experiments using adrenergic agonists and antagonists allowed us to determine that the metabolic effect of adrenaline is caused by interaction with 2-receptors.
