The secretion of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase of mouse submaxillary gland into saliva was stimulated by norepinephrine and phenylephrine but not by pilocarpine and isoproterenol. The stimulative effects of the alpha-adrenergic agents were inhibited by alpha-blockers, phentolamine, and phenoxybenzamine. These results suggest that the secretion of the enzyme is regulated through alpha-adrenergic receptors.
