In times of stress the sympathetic nervous system stimulates the adrenal medulla which then secretes catecholamines. The catecholamines includes; Dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine. Catecholamines are made by nerve tissue, the brain, and the adrenal glands. They help the body respond to stress or fright and prepare the body for "fight or flight" reactions.

Sensory neurons pass through the dorsal root ganglion after that the dorsal root and in the gray matter the neurons synapse to inter neurons in the posterior horn or may continue to the white matter and  then enter the spinal cord.

Anterior horn:

The motor portion of the nervous system has two parts; i) the somatic motor system and the ii) autonomic nervous system. The somatic motor neuron stimulates the skeletal muscle with stimulation. The somatic motor neuron cell bodies (part of verve cell) are in the anterior horn of the gray matter.

Lateral horn:  

The autonomic motor neuron send stimulation to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands etc. The cell bodies( part of nerve cell) of the autonomic motor neuron are in the lateral horn of the gray matter.
