Abstract
Isoproterenol-induced accumulation of cyclic AMP was investigated in aorta rings from 7 to 18 weeks old rats. The effect of isoproterenol on cyclic AMP reached a maximum in 1 min. The concentration-effect curves showed a significant decrease of the maximal accumulation of cyclic AMP as a function of age, without any variation in the effective concentration range. These results parallel the previously reported decrease of beta-adrenergic relaxation of rat aorta with age.Entities:
