AB  - The vascular responses of the isolated perfused rat liver to epinephrine were found to be very similar to that organ's response in vivo, namely a prompt and (lose-dependent vaso-constriction which reduces blood flow. This effect of epinephrine could be blocked or reversed by dihydroergotamine. By contrast, drug-induced potassium and glucose losses from the perfused organ are slow and are less than those which might be expected from this organ in vivo. The Williams & Wilkins Comapny
