Adrenergic system or Adrenergic nervous system (ANS) is a group of organs and nerves in which adrenaline (epinephrine) and/or noradrenaline (norepinephrine) act as neurotransmitters. ANS is counted as one of the main neurohormonal systems that regulate cardiovascular function, including smooth muscle tone.^[1]

The peripheral adrenergic nervous system consists of three main components:^[2]

The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) comprises the autonomic outflow from the thoracic and high lumbar segments of the spinal cord;
The parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) includes the outflow from the cranial nerves and the low lumbar and sacral spinal cord
The enteric nervous system (ENS) are intrinsic neurons in the wall of the gut.
