The phenolamines tyramine and octopamine are decarboxylation products of the amino acid tyrosine. Although tyramine is the biological precursor of octopamine, both compounds are independent neurotransmitters, acting through various G-protein coupled receptors. Especially, octopamine modulates a plethora of behaviors, peripheral

Octopamine (OA) and tyramine (TA) are the invertebrate counterparts of the vertebrate adrenergic transmitters. They are decarboxylation products of the amino acid tyrosine, with TA as the biological precursor of OA. Nevertheless, both compounds are independent neurotransmitters that act through

Headache, 22(1), 30-34 (1982-01-01)
The hypothesis that oral tyramine causes migraine headache in certain patients was proposed by Hanington in 1967. In all, there are 11 published reports that experimentally test the hypothesis. Six of these studies provide support for the hypothesis whereas the
M G Bianchetti et al.
Klinische Wochenschrift, 60(9), 465-470 (1982-05-03)
Responses of blood pressure and plasma catecholamines to intravenous injection of tyramine at increasing dosage (30, 45, and 60 microgram/kg, respectively) were evaluated in 25 normal subjects and 20 patients with mild essential hypertension. Basal plasma norepinephrine and epinephrine concentrations

Neurotoxicology, 25(1-2), 243-250 (2003-12-31)
The major side effect with the use of first generation of non selective monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors as neuropsychiatric drugs was what became known as the "cheese reaction". Namely, potentiation of sympathomimetic activity of ingested tyramine present in cheese and
