Which Observation suggestcd to Sutherland the involvement of a second messenger in epinephrine's effect on liver cells?
- (A) Enzymatic activity was proportional to the amount of calcium added to a cell-freeextract.
- (B) Receptor studies indicated that epinephrine was a ligand.
- (C) Glycogen breakdown was observed only when epinephrine was administered to intact cells.
- (D) Glycogen breakdown was observed only when epinephrine and glycogen Phosphorylase were mixed.
