What is compound extracted from adrenal gland of animals?

Epinephrine (adrenaline) is the compound extracted from the adrenal glands of animals. It is a naturally occurring hormone and neurotransmitter that plays a vital role in the body's "fight or flight" response. Epinephrine is produced by the adrenal medulla, which is located on top of each kidney. When the body is under stress, the adrenal glands release epinephrine into the bloodstream. This causes the heart rate and breathing to increase, the blood vessels to constrict, and the muscles to tense up. It helps the body prepare for physical exertion and mobilization in response to stressful situations.
