Cyclic AMP, adrenaline and noradrenaline in plasma during surgery. 1978

S N Madsen, and F Fog-Møller, and C Christiansen, and T Vester-Andersen, and A Engquist

Plasma concentrations of cyclic AMP, adrenaline and noradrenaline were measured in 6 patients undergoing hysterectomy from before induction of anaesthesia to 6 h after skin incision. Noradrenaline did not vary significantly during the observation period, whereas cyclic AMP and adrenaline increased after skin incision. A significant correlation was found between plasma concentrations of cyclic AMP and adrenaline (r = 0.84, P less than 0.01), suggesting that the latter is responsible for the increase in plasma cyclic AMP which is observed in relation to surgical procedures. Peak concentrations of cyclic AMP and adrenaline were seen in the early postoperative phase. This indicates that the most pronounced acute endocrine stress response to surgery of moderate severity occurs after termination of anaesthesia.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007044 Hysterectomy Excision of the uterus. Hysterectomies
D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.

D004837 Epinephrine The active sympathomimetic hormone from the ADRENAL MEDULLA. It stimulates both the alpha- and beta- adrenergic systems, causes systemic VASOCONSTRICTION and gastrointestinal relaxation, stimulates the HEART, and dilates BRONCHI and cerebral vessels. It is used in ASTHMA and CARDIAC FAILURE and to delay absorption of local ANESTHETICS.

D000242 Cyclic AMP An adenine nucleotide containing one phosphate group which is esterified to both the 3'- and 5'-positions of the sugar moiety. It is a second messenger and a key intracellular regulator, functioning as a mediator of activity for a number of hormones, including epinephrine, glucagon, and ACTH.
