Abstract

SummaryIn this study, adrenalectomy prevented a rise in lactic acid content of brain tissue in hypoxic rats. When various adrenal hormones were injected, the brain lactic acid level of adrenalectomized hypoxic rats was elevated to the same extent as intact hypoxic rats. Animals adapted to a simulated altitude of 18,000 feet did not respond to the same degree as non-adapted animals when both groups were exposed to severe hypoxia.
