摘要: Abstract 14 C-Labeled l -3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine ( -DOPA, 20 μCi, 11 mg/kg) was injected intravenously into control rats and after complete hepatectomy. The were killed min, studies made of the disposition metabolism -[ C]DOPA in plasma, erythrocytes, brain, heart, kidney, gastrointestinal tract, spleen, lung, adrenals, muscle, pancreas liver (of controls). Total C these tissues accounted for 31 per cent dose 53 operated animals. hepatectomized that contained a disproportionately high amount radioactivity heart erythrocytes. Amounts [ C]dopamine higher than animals found most especially kidneys, although there evidence decarboxylation DOPA inhibited Further to norepinephrine limited rats; associated with 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid. This suggests hepatectomy is an impairment vesicular uptake or retention dopamine inhibition β-hydroxylation. As result, formed metabolized by mitochondrial monoamine oxidase [amine (flavincontaining) EC 1.4.3.4] form There little
