General description
Tyrosine hydroxylase plays an important role in the physiology of adrenergic neurons. It is the first and rate-limiting enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of the catecholamines Dopamine and Norepinephrine from tyrosine. TH is, therefore, a useful marker for dopaminergic and noradrenergic neurons. The enzymatic activity of TH requires ferrous ions as cofactors and is believed to be regulated by phosphorylation. At least four isoforms of human TH have been identified which result from alternative splicing.
Specificity
Other species have not been tested.
Tyrosine Hydroxylase, phosphoSer40. The antibody recognizes a protein of 60 kDa corresponding to TH phosphorylated at Ser40. Depending on brain region being studied, protein loads and detection methods used some higher molecular weight bands may be detected.
Immunogen
Epitope: phospho-Ser40
Synthetic peptide from the phosphoSer40 of rat Tyrosine Hydroxylase.

Among cathinone drugs known as bath salts, methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV) exerts its potent actions via the dopamine (DA) system, and at intoxicating doses may produce adverse behavioral effects. Previous work by our group suggests that prolonged alterations in correlated neural activity

Pharmacological studies indicate that dopamine D1-like receptors (D1 and D5) are critically involved in cognitive function. However, the lack of pharmacological ligands selective for either the D1 or D5 receptors has made it difficult to determine the unique contributions of

Chronic opiate exposure induces neurochemical adaptations in the noradrenergic system. Enhanced responsiveness of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis after morphine withdrawal has been associated with hyperactivity of ascending noradrenergic input from the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS-A(2)) cell group to the
