Abstract
Cats were anesthetised with ether, and the chorda tympani of one side was removed as completely as possible. At various times after this operation the control and the decentralized submaxillary glands were stimulated with acetylcholine by close intra-arterial inj. It was found that severance of the parasympathetic nerve supply sensitized the submaxillary gland of the cat to acetylcholine, the effect being apparent 10 days after the operation and lasting at least through the 27th day.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
