| Abstract | 1. Hepatic volume was recorded by a plethysmographic technique in cats anaesthetized with pentobarbitone; the hepatic artery and portal vein remained intact. Dose-response curves were obtained for intravenous infusions of adrenaline, noradrenaline, angiotensin, vasopressin and histamine.2. Adrenaline and noradrenaline decreased hepatic blood volume and did not differ significantly in potency. Up to 40% of the hepatic blood volume was expelled by doses within the range secreted by the adrenal medullae.3. Isoprenaline, infused into the hepatic artery, had no significant effect on hepatic blood volume in doses which caused maximal vasodilatation of the hepatic arterial bed. Relaxation of hepatic capacitance vessels mediated by beta-adrenoceptors did not occur.4. Angiotensin infusions in doses previously shown to cause intestinal and splenic vasoconstriction, decreased hepatic blood volume and on a molar or microgramme basis, angiotensin was the most potent of the agents tested. Doses within the probable physiological range of endogenous production decreased hepatic blood volume by up to 20%. The responses were not significantly different when the hepatic nerves were intact or sectioned.5. Vasopressin infusions produced only small decreases in hepatic blood volume. Doses within the range secreted by the posterior pituitary which constrict the intestinal and splenic resistance vessels, did not decrease hepatic blood volume by more than 10%.6. Histamine produced no change in hepatic blood volume in doses which readily produce outflow block in dogs. Either the specific hepatic venous smooth muscle involved in outflow block is absent in the cat or it has no histamine receptors.7. After the rapid change in hepatic blood volume at the onset of the infusion, hepatic volume remained steady for the duration of each infusion. There was no evidence that these agents caused net transsinusoidal fluid movements. |

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.
