The physiological role of catecholamines, particularly dopamine and norepinephrine, in the regulation of gonadotropin secretion in humans is unclear. We administered the tyrosine hydroxylase inhibitor alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine (AMPT, 500 mg at 800 and 1000 h) to five women in the early

We have previously synthesized a chemical analog of dopamine (DA) in which the amine group has been replaced by a permanently charged dimethylsulfonium group. In the present study, we have determined whether this compound can exert DA agonist activity in
Amfonelic acid antagonism of dopamine and norepinephrine depletion by alpha-methyl-m-tyrosine in rat brain.
