This study examines the in vivo effects of 2,3-dichloro-alpha-methylbenzylamine (DCMB), a centrally active phenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase (PNMT) inhibitor, on alpha 2-adrenoceptors. Sixty-six rats received either DCMB, SKF29661, the peripheral PNMT inhibitor, at a dose of 50 mg/kg or saline intraperitoneally. To examine
