The secretion of N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase of mouse submaxillary gland into saliva was stimulated by norepinephrine and phenylephrine but not by pilocarpine and isoproterenol. The stimulative effects of the {alpha}-adrenergic agents were inhibited by {alpha}-blockers, phentolamine, and phenoxybenzamine. These results suggest that the secretion of the enzyme is regulated through {alpha}-adrenergic receptors.
