| Abstract | 1 Adrenaline and noradrenaline secretion induced by caffeine was investigated in the perfused cat adrenal glands. 2 Caffeine (10-80 mM) caused a dose-dependent increase in both adrenaline and noradrenaline secretion when applied for 1 min and 10 min after replacing Ca2+ with 10(-5)M EGTA in the perfusion solution. The ratio of adrenaline to noradrenaline was about 1:1. Mg2+ and/or Ca2+ inhibited the response to caffeine. 3 When caffeine (40 mM) was repeatedly applied in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, the secretory response almost disappeared but only at the second challenge with caffeine. However, the response was partially restored after readmission of Ca2+ (2.2 mM) and was augmented after the readmission of Ca2+ with ouabain (10(-5) M). 4 Caffeine-induced secretion of adrenaline and noradrenaline increased with the increase in the preloaded concentration of Ca2+ and attained a maximum at 16 mM Ca2+. 5 During perfusion with Ca2+-free Locke solution containing hexamethonium (10(-3)M), acetylcholine (10(-4)M) caused increases in both adrenaline and noradrenaline secretions with a ratio of about 1:2. The secretory responses were partially inhibited by preceding stimulation with exposure to caffeine (80 mM). 6 These results suggest that caffeine mobilizes Ca2+ from an intracellular storage site that may not be entirely the same as that linked to muscarinic receptors, and causes an increase in both adrenaline and noradrenaline secretion from cat adrenal chromaffin cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
