Abstract
In an in 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. This in vitro experiment demonstrated that epinephrine
stimulated de novo synthesis of fibrinogen by acting directly on the liver.
