Abstract

Guinevere and oscar observed (1944) that heat production is maintained at a normal level in the absence of medullary adrenal tissue, but the effects of loss of the cortical tissue on hear production are not entirely clear. Most reports indicate that in mammals the loss of cortical hormones leads to an early decrease of the metabolic rate. it has been reported by Grollman, Brownell, and Hartman that sodium salt, like other treatments ( cortin, sodium factors, and desoxycorticosterone), maintained adrenalectomized dogs in good condition with a normal metabolic rate (8).
