Effect of epinephrine and cortisol on fasting-induced ghrelin secretion in male rats fed different levels of their energy requirement

Introduction: ghrelin is a potent orexigenic agent in rodents and humans. Some studies have shown that ghrelin participates in the adaptive response to weight loss and plasma concentration of ghrelin rises with dieting. On the other hand, weight loss and fasting is accompanied by increased levels of epinephrine and cortisol. In this study, we investigated the effects of epinephrine and corti...

High levels of circulating epinephrine trigger apical cardiodepression in a β2-adrenergic receptor/Gi-dependent manner: a new model of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.

BACKGROUND Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is an acute heart failure syndrome characterized by myocardial hypocontractility from the mid left ventricle to the apex. It is precipitated by extreme stress and can be triggered by intravenous catecholamine administration, particularly epinephrine. Despite its grave presentation, Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is rapidly reversible, with generally good prognosis....

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy caused by epinephrine-treated bee sting anaphylaxis: a case report

INTRODUCTION Stress-induced cardiomyopathy (Takotsubo) after bee stings in patients who have received catecholamines is rare. Endogenous as well as exogenous administration of catecholamines is thought to trigger stress-induced cardiomyopathy. CASE PRESENTATION A 37-year-old healthy white woman was stung by an unknown Hymenoptera that resulted in an anaphylactic reaction. Intravenous adrenali...

Severe reversible left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction due to accidental iatrogenic epinephrine overdose.

Catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy due to chronic excess of endogenous catecholamines has been recognized for decades as a clinical phenomenon. In contrast, reports of myocardial dysfunction due to acute iatrogenic overdose are rare. A 35-year-old woman whose cervix uteri was inadvertently injected with 8 mg of epinephrine developed myocardial stunning that was characterized by severe hemodyn...

Phosphorylase Activity in Rat Liver and Skeletal Muscle after Catecholamines.

The tune course of liver phosphorylase activation after catecholamine administration and the relative abilities of several adrenergic blocking agents to block catecholamine-induced phosphorylase activation in liver and skeletal muscle was studied in intact anesthetized rats. Subcutaneously injected epinephrine and norepinephrine increased the liver phosphorylase activity, the peak effect occurr...
