Attempts to produce dilatation of the intestinewere successful when was injected, therebeing a strong constriction followed by a produced constriction only. Intestinal dilatation was the only indication of thepresence of an adrenalin vasodilator mechanism in the horse. Artiodactyla (Capra)In vieAY of the unsatisfactory condition of thehorse, it was imperative that another animal belong-ing to the ungulates be tried. An experiment witha goat (weight kgm.) removed all doubt as tothe existence of adrenalin vasodilator mechanisms inthis order. A depressor effect (Fig. 6) as well as.

However nothing but constriction in the intes-tine (Fig. 8) resulted from even large doses of adren-alin until perfusion was attempted. A loop of intes-rine, Avith nerves intact, but shut off from the generalcirculation and perfused with oxygenated Ringerssolution gave pronounced dilatation both when 130 ADRENALIN IN VERTEBRATES
