AB  - In anesthetized cats the increase in oxygen consumption rate caused by dinitrophenol is markedly greater if epinephrine be infused intravenously at a physiological rate during, or just before, the period of dinitrophenol action. The enhancement so produced is significantly greater than the increase in oxygen consumption yielded by epinephrine alone. This synergic calorigenic action is a major factor in the enhancement of dinitrophenol metabolic stimulation observed in hypothermic animals.
