Abstract
1. Addition of the β-adrenergic agonist clenbuterol to the diet of steers increased blood flow in portal-drained viscera, liver and tissues of the hindquarters.
2. Uptake of oxygen increased with clenbuterol feeding in hindquarters but not portal-drained viscera or liver.
3. On day 1 of clenbuterol feeding, the principal source of circulating l-lactate switched from portal-drained viscera to hindquarters.
4. Both net release of α-amino nitrogen by the portal-drained viscera and net uptake by the hindquarters decreased on day 1 of clenbuterol feeding. Over time of clenbuterol feeding, both release of α-amino nitrogen by the portal-drained viscera and uptake by the hindquarters increased to equal or greater than pretreatment values, respectively.
