Abstract

An investigation on unanesthetized and anesthetized cats showed that noradrenalin acts directly on the brain vessels and increases their tone. Noradrenalin was also found to affect blood vessels of the different arterial systems of the brain unequally: It raised the perfusion pressure in the system of the carotid arteries more than in the vertebral arterial system.
