Abstract
Mammalian carotid bodies contain substantial amounts of norepinephrine (NE) (1,2). Despite its abundance in the chemoreceptor tissue, the role of norepinephrine in carotid body function remain uncertain. Several investigators have examined the effects of norepinephrine on carotid body activity (3–6). The reported chemoreceptor responses to NE include inhibition as well as excitation, often inhibition preceeds the excitation.
