Effect of beta-adrenergic blockade on plasma dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activity and triiodothyronine in hyperthyroidism.
The effect of propranolol on plasma dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activity and triiodothyronine was investigated in twelve subjects with Graves' disease. Plasma DBH activity, serum triiodothyronine and thyroxine were determined beforehand and electrocardiograms were recorded on the same days as the blood samples were taken. Propranolol administration was associated with clinical amelioration in blo...
متن کاملSerum dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activity.
Dopamine-yS-liydroxylase, the enzyme which converts dopamine to norepinephrine, is released into the perfusate upon stimulation of the isolated perfused adrenal gland and after stimulation of the nerves to the isolated perfused spleen. This study was undertaken to determine whether dopamine-/?hydroxylase activity could be detected circulating in blood. By using a sensitive new enzymatic assay, ...
متن کاملPlasma dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activity in oral contraceptive hypertension.
A prospective study was undertaken to evaluate the relative contribution of changes in sympathetic nervous system activity, as reflected by changes in dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (DBH) activity, to the pathogenesis of oral contraceptive-induced hypertension. Precontraceptive and serial post contraceptive determinations of blood pressure, plasma renin activity (PRA), DBH activity, and changes in b...
متن کاملEffect of imipramine treatment on plasma dopamine beta-hydroxylase activity in chronic mild stress in rats.
Dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) which catalyzes conversion of dopamine into noradrenaline, may be a good blood marker of unipolar depression. Therefore, we studied the effect of classic antidepressant drug imipramine (10 mg/kg ip) on activity of this enzyme in plasma of rats subjected to chronic mild stress (CMS), the model of anhedonia. CMS induced reductions in DBH activity by the second day ...
متن کاملEffect of alcohol withdrawal on blood pressure, plasma renin activity, aldosterone, cortisol and dopamine beta-hydroxylase.
Sixty-five alcoholic patients admitted for detoxification had blood pressure, withdrawal symptoms, plasma cortisol (PC) and plasma aldosterone (PA) levels, plasma renin activity (PRA), and serum dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) levels measured on the first and fourth days after admission. On the morning after admission blood pressure was elevated (greater than 140/90) in 32 patients (49%) and wa...
