Functions of octopamine in the mammalian brain are still not well known. An important aspect of this problem is the relationship between octopamines and catecholamines. Previous data have shown that their respective ontogenic evolutions are not parallel. Do the changes

[11C]-p- and m-octopamine hydrochloride were synthesized from [11C]HCN in a two-step sequence. Chemical and enzymatic approaches were used for the formation of the [11C]cyanohydrin intermediates as the key step. Isolated radiochemical yields of 0.7-2.3% at the end-of-synthesis were obtained with

Administration of p-octopamine by intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) or intrathecal (i.t.) routes, but not orally, produced antinociception in the acetylcholine-induced abdominal constriction test (ED50 = 24.8 and 3.6 micrograms, respectively). Likewise, i.c.v. and i.t., but not peripheral (up to 200 mg/kg s.c.)

Phenolamines, particularly octopamines, are of special importance in avoidance behavior. In the Roman low avoidance (RLA) strain, p-octopamine can induce locomotor behavioral activity that is normally observed in the Roman high avoidance (RHA) strain. For these reasons, the levels of
