1 The present study was undertaken to investigate the direct effects of the hormones prolactin, angiotensin II and cortisol on catecholamine release from fetal adrenal medulla, and to determine whether the effect of the hormones change during development into adulthood.

2 In newborn cells, only the highest concentration of 200 micrograms/ml ovine prolactin stimulated total catecholamine release at 6 h and 12 h, with significant increases of the three catecholamines at 12 h. In maternal cells, stimulation of catecholamine release was observed also with the highest concentration of prolactin tested (200 micrograms/ml) and after 12 h of incubation, when only the release of epinephrine was significantly enhanced by 324%.
