3,4-Dihydroxyphenylalanine and 5-Hydroxytryptophan as Reserpine Antagonists [PDF]

Nature, 1957
THE depletion by reserpine of storage in the body of 5-hydroxytryptamine (‘Serotonin’) and of the catechol amines is now well established1–3. In reserpinized animals the peripheral part of the adrenergic system does not function owing to lack of the transmitter2. This is presumably true also of the central part of the adrenergic system.

Proximate composition and anti-nutritional factors in Mucuna pruriens (velvet bean) seed flour as affected by several processing methods

Heliyon, 2023
Mucuna pruriens seed being an underutilized legume with antinutrients was processed to reduce antinutrients and improve nutritional quality. The seeds were cleaned, washed and subjected to single treatments of soaking (24 h, 48 h, 72 h), cooking (20 min,

Beyond Melanin: Proteomics Reveals Virulence-Related Proteins in Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii Yeast Cells Grown in the Presence of L-Dihydroxyphenylalanine

Journal of Fungi, 2020
Species of the genus Paracoccidioides cause a systemic infection in human patients. Yeast cells of Paracoccidioides spp. produce melanin in the presence of L-dihydroxyphenylalanine and during infection, which may impact the pathogen’s survival in the ...

Involvement of the L-DOPA receptor GPR143 in acute and chronic actions of methylphenidate

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2023
Methylphenidate (MPH) and methamphetamine (METH) are the current treatments of choice for attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. We previously reported that METH induces the release of dopamine (DA) and of the neurotransmitter candidate L-3,4 ...

Novel Strecker degradation products of tyrosine and dihydroxyphenylalanine

Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2001
Tyrosine was oxidised with either potassium peroxodisulphate or glyoxal. Volatile reaction products were isolated and analysed by GC/FID and GC/MS, derivatised with diazomethane and analysed by the same methods.

Effects of Aging on Levo-Dihydroxyphenylalanine- Induced Dyskinesia in a Rat Model of Parkinson’s Disease

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
BackgroundIt remains unclear why patients with young-onset Parkinson’s disease more often develop levo-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-dopa)-induced dyskinesia (LID) and have a more severe form than patients with old-onset Parkinson’s disease. Previous studies
