25. CSF concentration gradients of monoamine metabolites in patients with hydrocephalus.
Concentration gradients of homovanillic acid (HVA), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG), were assessed in 762 successive CSF fractions (2 ml lumbar CSF) from 15 patients with the adult hydrocephalus syndrome (AHS) and 11 patients with hydrocephalus of other causes (mixed group). A mean volume of 49.6 (SD 11.8) ml C

26. Daidzin and its antidipsotropic analogs inhibit serotonin and dopamine metabolism in isolated mitochondria
Daidzin, a major active principle of an ancient Chinese herbal treatment (Radix puerariae) for alcohol abuse, selectively suppresses ethanol intake in all rodent models tested. It also inhibits mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH-2). Studies on ethanol intake suppression and ALDH-2 inhibition by structural analogs of daidzin established a link between

27. Efflux of 5-hydroxytryptamine and noradrenaline into spinal cord superfusates during stimulation of the rat medulla.
High pressure liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection was used to quantify the efflux, in the same sample, of endogenous 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), noradrenaline (NA), and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) into superfusates of the rat spinal cord in vivo. The efflux of these three agents was measured prior to, and during, electrical stimulati

28. Excretion of tryptophan metabolites in Friedreich's ataxia
The overnight urinary excretions of the tryptophan metabolites 5-hydroxy indole acetic acid (5HIAA), indole acetic acid (IAA), indoxyl sulphate, and kynurenine were determined in 10 cases of Friedreich's ataxia and in 11 controls. Levels of 5HIAA and IAA were slightly lower and of indoxyl sulphate higher than in the controls but within normal limits; kynuren

29. Concentration gradients of monoamine metabolites in human cerebrospinal fluid.
The monamine metabolites 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), homovanillic acid (HVA), vanillylmandelic acid (VMA), and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenylglycol (HMPG) were analysed in CSF from different regions of the CSF system to study the caudocranial concentration gradient of the metabolites. Four consecutive 10 ml fractions of CSF were withdrawn in 17 patients

30. CSF studies on the relationship between dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine in Parkinsonism and other movement disorders.
In Parkinson's disease, the concentration of homovanillic acid (HVA) was reduced in lumbar CSF from patients with idiopathic Parkinsonism (n = 54, P less than 0.05) and post-encephalitic Parkinsonism (n = 19, P less than 0.01). The reduction in the concentrations of 5-hydroxyindolylacetic acid (5-HIAA) was not significant, and there was no alteration in the

31. Use of cerebrospinal fluid drawn at pneumoencephalography in the study of monoamine metabolism in man
Concentrations of homovanillic acid (HVA) and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) were significantly higher in CSF obtained after injection of air during pneumoencephalography (PEG) than in lumbar CSF, as drawn before the injection. There was a high correlation between levels in the `mixed' and lumbar samples of CSF in the case of each of the two acids. The

32. Cerebrospinal fluid adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid and homovanillic acid in patients with sleep apnoea syndrome
Adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) and homovanillic acid (HVA) were determined in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with respiratory disorder and hypersomnia and in control patients. Patients with the sleep apnoea syndrome confirmed polygraphically showed elevated levels of cyclic AMP and 5-HIAA. Cyclic AMP leve

33. Monoamine metabolite concentrations in lumbar cerebrospinal fluid of patients with histologically verified Alzheimer's dementia.
Concentrations of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG), 5-hydroxy indoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) and homovanillic acid (HVA) were determined in lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from control subjects and patients of both presenile and senile age with histologically verified Alzheimer's dementia. CSF HVA increased with age in control but not in Alzheimer patient

34. Spinal reflexes and the concentrations of 5-HIAA, MHPG, and HVA in lumbar cereborspinal fluid after spinal lesions in man.
Descending bulbospinal pathways that employ specific neurotransmitter substances are known to be capable of modulating segmental reflex activity in the experimental animal. To determine whether this might also occur in man correlations have been sought between the activity in spinal reflex pathways and the lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of 5

35. Concentration of homovanillic acid and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in the ventricular cerebrospinal fluid of patients with obstructive hydrocephalus.
In 12 patients with different posterior fossa tumours the concentrations of homovanillic acid (HVA) and of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) were measured in cerebrospinal fluid from the lateral ventricles. All patients had obstructive hydrocephalus. Patients with a clear increase of 5-HIAA/HVA ratio in the ventricular CSF have died subsequently. This feat

36. Comparative simultaneous measurement of cerebrospinal fluid 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid and blood serotonin levels in delirium tremens and clozapine-induced delirious reaction.
Cerebrospinal fluid 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid and total blood serotonin levels were measured simultaneously in 11 female patients with delirium tremens and nine schizophrenic women with clozapine-induced acute delirium. Both groups had significantly raised levels of 5HIAA in CSF and significantly reduced blood 5HT levels as compared with normal control subj
