Monoaminergic control of spinal locomotor networks in SOD1G93A newborn mice [PDF]
Mutations in the gene that encodes Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) are the cause of approximately 20% of familial forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons ...

A trace amine beta‐phenylethylamine is anxiolytic and reduces brain acetylcholine at 12 μg/L, but elevates anxiety and cortisol levels at 1000 μg/L. Acute tryptamine at 7 mg/L is anxiogenic, reduces shoaling and social interaction, but elevates brain acetylcholine and cortisol levels. Acute tyramine at 15 μg/L, and octopamine at 125, 500, and 1500 μg/L,

Rapid heat stabilization of brain tissue preserves the natural levels and spatial distribution of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides better than traditional snap freezing. Using matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI‐MSI), we show that heat stabilization effectively prevents postmortem enzymatic degradation ...

α-Methyl derivatives of biogenic amines as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
AbstractThe values of Km app and Vmax for three natural substrates of monoamine oxidase have been determined at various stages in the isolation of the enzyme from rat liver tissue. The results are consistent with the presence in the enzyme preparation of at least two distinct molecular forms of the enzyme.Using the α-methyl derivatives of the natural ...

Octopamine underlies the counter-regulatory response to a glucose deficit in honeybees (Apis mellifera) [PDF]
An animal’s internal state is a critical parameter required for adaptation to a given environment. An important aspect of an animal’s internal state is the energy state that is adjusted to the needs of an animal by energy homeostasis.
