The actions of metaraminol on the secretion of fluid and glycoproteins from rat submandibular glands were investigated using phentolamine, propranolol and reserpine. Metaraminol at doses from 1 to 8 mg/kg (i.p.) increased the salivation and the amounts of protein in submandibular saliva in a dose-dependent manner. The salivation induced by metaraminol at 2 mg/kg was inhibited strongly by pretreatment with propranolol, whereas the salivation induced by metaraminol at 8 mg/ kg was inhibited strongly by phentolamine. Reserpine inhibited the secretion of fluid caused by both doses of metaraminol. The electrophoretic profiles of saliva evoked by metaraminol at 2 mg/kg revealed two main bands of glycoprotein, I and IV, which originated from the acinus, and the intensities of these bands were decreased by treatment with propranolol, whereas the major band in saliva induced by 8 mg/kg of metaraminol was glycoprotein III, which originated from the granular tubules. The intensity of band III was decreased by pretreatment with phentolamine. These results suggest that metaraminol, at small doses, stimulates mainly the β-adrenoceptor in the acinus, whereas at large doses, it prominently stimulates the α-adrenoceptors in the granular tubules, although metaraminol at small and large doses is able to stimulate α- and β-adrenoceptors in rat submandibular gland.
