Abstract
1. Plasma noradrenaline and adrenaline were measured radioenzymatically in twelve hypertensive and four normotensive subjects before and during handgrip. In the resting arm (n=11), plasma noradrenaline increased by 17% (P0.1). 2. The noradrenaline response suggests a small and variable sympathetic adrenergic response; the significant difference (P<0.05) in adrenaline responses between resting and exercising arms may reflect local variation in tissue clearance.Keywords
