Epinephrine, or adrenaline, is a hormone released by the adrenal glands as part of a âfight or flightâ response. Its function is to prepare the body to flee or fight back. As such, it must affect a wide range of bodily tissues, including the muscles, circulatory system, and lungs.
Epinephrine and the heart. Epinephrine binds to beta-adrenergic receptors on heart muscle cells. This causes the contraction rate of the heart to increase. This ultimately leads to increased blood supply to the tissues in the body.pinephrine, along with another hormone called glucagon, is responsible for the breakdown of glycogen in liver cells. Glycogen is a form of energy storage in animals. Epinephrine binds to a receptor on the outside of a liver cell causing a conformational change to occur. This change means that a G protein can now bind.
