Adrenal medulla produces what large amounts of the hormone?
epinephrine and norpepinephrine
What fatty acids produce eicosanoids?
Eicosanoids are produced from arachidonic acid, which is an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid. Other fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from the omega-3 family, can compete with arachidonic acid and lead to the production of different types of eicosanoids with potentially different biological effects.
Does post ganglionic fibers release epinephrine?
No, postganglionic fibers release norepinephrine, not epinephrine. Epinephrine is released by the adrenal medulla.
What organ secrets epinephrine?
The adrenal gland secretes epinephrine--also known as adrenalin.
Do eicosanoids include hydrocortisones?
No, eicosanoids and hydrocortisones are not the same. Eicosanoids are a group of signaling molecules derived from fatty acids, while hydrocortisones are a type of corticosteroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands.

What is the first drug of choice for acute heart failure?

When a person is physically stressed what hormone is released quickly to stimulate an increase in blood glucose concentration?
is it epinephrine?
What distinguishes a vial of lidocaine with epinephrine from a vial without epinephrine?
if lidocaine is represented by a percentage(1% or 2%) followed by a 1:100,000 then it contains epinephrine. the 1:100,000 is the concentration of epinephrine in the medication.
What fatty acids produce eicosanoids?
