Carotid bodies (CBs) are secondary sensory receptors in which the sensing elements, chemoreceptor cells, are activated by decreases in arterial PO2 (hypoxic hypoxia).

Effects of Low Dose Dexmedetomidine Infusion on Intraoperative Haemodynamic Stress Response in Patients Undergoing Oral Oncological Surgeries: A Randomised Control Study [PDF]
Introduction: Maintaining stable haemodynamics throughout oral and maxillofacial surgeries helps to decrease intraoperative bleeding and thus improves the surgical field avoiding unnecessary damage to vital structures and tissues.

Catecholamine-induced Myocarditis in a Child with Pheochromocytoma
Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors. The clinical presentation of pediatric PPGLs is highly variable. In cases with pheochromocytoma (PCC), excess catecholamine may stimulate myocytes and cause structural changes ...

Neural response to catecholamine depletion in remitted bulimia nervosa: Relation to depression and relapse. [PDF]
Bulimia nervosa has been associated with a dysregulated catecholamine system. Nevertheless, the influence of this dysregulation on bulimic symptoms, on neural activity, and on the course of the illness is not clear yet.

The clinical conundrum of a catecholamine secreting giant adrenal myelolipoma
Adrenal myelolipomas are uncommon tumours of unknown aetiology. They arise from the adrenal cortex and comprise lipomatous and myeloid elements. They are considered to be functionally inert, and metabolic evaluation is not mandatory for them.

CHARACTERISATION, LOCALISATION AND REGULATION OF CATECHOLAMINE SYNTHESIZING ENZYMES
This chapter discusses a study analyzing characterization, localization and regulation of catecholamine synthesizing enzymes. In the study, aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) was purified from bovine adrenal glands.

Renalase, a catecholamine-metabolising enzyme? [PDF]
Recently, a new FAD-dependent amine oxidase, renalase, was described. It was secreted by the kidney into the blood and shown to have significant cardiovascular actions, which were attributed to its catecholamine-metabolising activity.

Perioperative Management of Catecholamine-Secreting Glomus Jugulare Tumors
To treat patients with a catecholamine-secreting glomus jugulare tumor, perioperative management is important. Perioperative catecholamine hypersecretion causes severe problems in the treatment of a catecholamine-secreting glomus tumor.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,
