Key result
Sympathetic nerve stimulation altered tracer disappearance rate at 0.5-6.0 imp/sec and local blood content at 0.1-0.5 imp/sec via alpha-adrenergic receptors in the cat nasal mucosa.

Does sympathetic nerve stimulation affect tracer disappearance rate and local blood content in the nasal mucosa of cats?
Sympathetic nerve stimulation in cats demonstrates functional differentiation in vasoconstrictor control of exchange and capacitance vessels in the nasal mucosa at different frequencies.
Änggård et al. (1974) studied this question. Sympathetic nerve stimulation was evaluated on Tracer disappearance rate and local blood content. Sympathetic nerve stimulation altered tracer disappearance rate at 0.5-6.0 imp/sec and local blood content at 0.1-0.5 imp/sec via alpha-adrenergic receptors in the cat nasal mucosa.
