Decreased Noradrenaline (Norepinephrine) Synthesis in Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 1968
Three patients with idiopathic orthostatic (postural) hypotension were infused over a 4-hr period with 104.6 µc of 3-hydroxytyramine-2- 14 C, the immediate precursor in the synthesis of the sympathetic neurohormone, that is, noradrenaline (norepinephrine).

Vasoactivity of Rac GTPase, Cytohesin and Kinase Inhibitors in Renal Interlobar and Coronary Arteries Reveals Shared and Distinct Patterns of Inhibitory Effects in Vascular and Prostate Smooth Muscle Contraction

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 13, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Inhibition of vasocontraction accounts for side effects in treating voiding symptoms in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We examined the vasoactivity of compounds previously showing inhibition of prostate smooth muscle contraction. Contractions of porcine renal interlobar and coronary arteries were induced by agonists or electric field ...

Droxidopa in Patients with Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension Associated with Parkinson's Disease (NOH306A)

open access: yesJournal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2014
Background: Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) is common in Parkinson's disease (PD), and represents a failure to generate norepinephrine responses appropriate for postural change.

Management of Orthostatic Hypotension in Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesJournal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2020
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a common non-motor feature of Parkinson’s disease that may cause unexplained falls, syncope, lightheadedness, cognitive impairment, dyspnea, fatigue, blurred vision, shoulder, neck, or low-back pain upon standing.

Use of droxidopa for blood pressure augmentation after acute spinal cord injury: case reports [PDF]

open access: yesAcute and Critical Care
Hypotension secondary to autonomic dysfunction is a common complication of acute spinal cord injury (SCI) that may worsen neurologic outcomes. Midodrine, an enteral α-1 agonist, is often used to facilitate weaning intravenous (IV) vasopressors, but its ...

Cardiorespiratory Response to Exercise in Parkinson's Disease: Associations with Autonomic Dysfunction and Physical Activity

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, Volume 12, Issue 11, Page 1882-1890, November 2025.
Abstract Background Both autonomic dysfunction and low levels of physical activity could contribute to reduced cardiorespiratory fitness in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the interrelationship between these concepts is not well understood.

Polyneuropathy in Wild‐Type Transthyretin Amyloidosis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 32, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is a systemic disorder characterized by the extracellular accumulation of amyloid fibrils, classified as either mutant (ATTRv, v for variant) or wild‐type (ATTRwt), based on the genetic sequence of the transthyretin (TTR) protein.
