We report the toxic effects of 3,4-dimethoxyphenylethylamine (DMPEA), and tetrahydropapaverine (THP) on the rat nigrostriatal system; THP is a tetrahydroisoquinoline compound which may be derived from DMPEA by conjugation of DMPEA and its oxidative metabolite, dimethoxyphenylacetaldehyde; both are potent inhibitors

This review surveys the discovery of endogenous alkaloids in mammals. The formation of morphine in mammalian brain was assumed in 1970. The existence of morphine was demonstrated by radioimmunoassay. Identification of morphine was performed by spectroscopic methods. The isolation of

The inhibitory effects of tetrahydropapaverine on serotonin biosynthesis in serotonin-producing murine mastocytoma P815 cells were investigated. Tetrahydropapaverine at concentration ranges of 5-20 microM decreased serotonin content in a concentration-dependent manner in P815 cells and showed 42.1% inhibition of serotonin content

The effects of tetrahydropapaverine (THP) and papaverine (PAP), an O-methylated analogue, on rat liver alcohol dehydrogenase (L-ADH) and aldehyde-dehydrogenase (L-ALDH) were studied in vitro. The action of THP on these enzymes was also evaluated in vivo in conjunction with its

Since the discovery of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced parkinsonism, it has been postulated that (a) MPTP-like toxin(s) such as 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (TIQ) may induce Parkinson's disease. As the neuronal degeneration in MPTP-induced parkinsonism is thought to be caused by the inhibition of the
