Changes in thiamine concentration in the liver and kidneys were observed when the left ganglion caeliacum was stimulated by two different methods. 1) In rabbits a sham operation caused a decrease of total thiamine concentration in the liver (25-30%) and in the kidneys (27-36%). 2) The pharmacological stimulation by lead acetate and electric stimulation similarly caused a considerable decrease of total thiamine concentration in liver and kidneys after 1-12 hours (35-46%) . 3) Subcutaneous injection of Chlorpromazine suppressed the decrease due to sham operation and sympathetic stimulation. 4) The participation of the autonomic nervous system and pituitary adrenal system in thiamine metabolism was suggested by the above results.
