Urine-normetanephrine, a predictor of mortality risk in patients with adrenal adenomas [PDF]
Scientific ReportsUrine-metanephrines are used in the screening for pheochromocytomas in patients with adrenal incidentalomas, but their potential as markers for mortality in patients with adrenal adenomas has not been studied. A retrospective cohort study was designed to

Metanephrine and Normetanephrine Urine Excretion in Patients with PCOS [PDF]
Acta Medica Bulgarica, 2022 Aims: The present study aims to investigate the association between catecholamine metabolites (normetanephrine [NMN] and metanephrine [MN]) and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and its clinical manifestations.

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2015 Background: Pheochromocytomas (PHEO) and paragangliomas (PGL) are derived from paraganglia of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Most of the sympathetic PHEO/PGL secrete either catecholamine or their metabolites, metanephrines, whereas ...

Harmonization of LC-MS/MS Measurements of Plasma Free Normetanephrine, Metanephrine, and 3-Methoxytyramine. [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 2021 BACKGROUND Plasma-free normetanephrine and metanephrine (metanephrines) are the recommended biomarkers for testing of pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL).

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2021 Catecholamine release increases in dogs with pheochromocytomas and in situations of stress. Although plasma catecholamines degrade rapidly, their metabolites, normetanephrine (NME) and metanephrine (ME), are stable in acidified urine.

Specificities of Antibodies to Normetanephrine [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1972 Antibodies to normetanephrine were produced in rabbits by immunization with conjugates synthesized by linking the amino group of the hapten to the amino groups of the carrier macromolecules using glutaraldehyde. The antibodies are highly specific for the ring structure of the normetanephrine molecule and also recognize substitutions in the side chain ...

Biochemical testing for neuroblastoma using plasma free 3‐O‐methyldopa, 3‐methoxytyramine, and normetanephrine [PDF]
Pediatric Blood & Cancer, 2019 Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood, produces catecholamines that are metabolized within tumor cells. Homovanillic acid (HVA) and vanillylmandelic acid (VMA), the end products of catecholamine metabolism, have limited ...

Pheochromocytoma – clinical manifestations, diagnosis and current perioperative management [PDF]
Journal of Mind and Medical Sciences, 2019 Pheochromocytoma is a neuroendocrine tumor characterized by the excessive production of catecholamines (epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine). The diagnosis is suspected due to hypertensive paroxysms, associated with vegetative phenomena, due to the
