| 1 | The epididymal portion of the rat vas deferens from normal and castrated rats exhibited clear differences regarding both the threshold and the maximal response to acetylcholine. | Acetylcholine | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
| 2 | Alpha adrenoceptor antagonists, hexamethonium and 6-hydroxydopamine diminished the effectiveness of low acetylcholine concentrations on normal and castrated preparations of the epididymal portion of isolated rat vas deferens, but did not influence the maximal response. | Acetylcholine | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
| 3 | The results obtained suggest that low doses of acetylcholine may affect the contractile function of the isolated epididymal portion of rat vas deferens by producing a release of norepinephrine from presynaptic sites and acts in a similar fashion on preparations from both normal and castrated animals. | Acetylcholine | arginine vasopressin | Rattus norvegicus |
