Abstract
In anin vitro rat liver slice incubation system, the synthesis of fibrinogen, when measured by immunoprecipitation technique was stimulated in the presence of epinephrine. An increase in poly (A)+ RNA content of the liver slice was also observed after epinephrine treatment. Thisin vitro experiment demonstrated that epinephrine stimulatedde novo synthesis of fibrinogen by acting directly on the liver.
