The types of proteins secreted by the submandibular glands of rats in response to high doses of α-adrenergic agonists are electrophoretically different from those secreted in response to cholinergic and β-adrenergic agonists, but, in mice and hamsters, they appear to be independent of the nature of the stimulus.
