Human class I alcohol dehydrogenases catalyze the interconversion of alcohols and aldehydes in the metabolism of dopamine.

G Mårdh et al.

Biochemistry, 25(23), 7279-7282 (1986-11-18)

The class I human liver alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) catalyze the interconversion of the intermediary alcohols and aldehydes of dopamine metabolism in vitro, whereas those of the class II and class III do not. The individual, homogeneous class I isozymes oxidize

Effects of neuroleptic treatment on cortisol and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethyl glycol levels in blood.

G Wik

The Journal of endocrinology, 144(3), 425-429 (1995-03-01)

Plasma cortisol and serum 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethyl glycol (MHPG) were determined before and after 5-6 weeks of neuroleptic treatment in patients with schizophrenia. Following drug treatment both plasma cortisol and serum MHPG levels in patients decreased and plasma cortisol levels were also

The metabolism of dopamine in the blood of ruminant animals: an enzyme system to metabolize dopamine released from the mast cells in these species?

D F Sharman et al.

Comparative biochemistry and physiology. C, Comparative pharmacology and toxicology, 75(2), 217-222 (1983-01-01)

Following the i.v. administration of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylethylamine (dopamine) to sheep, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylethanol and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid rapidly appeared in the blood. 3,4-Dihydroxyphenylethanol can be formed from dopamine by blood plasma of ruminants in vitro. It is suggested that this plasma enzyme system might
