Modulation of brain catecholamine absorbing proteins by dopaminergic agents
Abstract
Catecholamine absorbing proteins (CATNAPs) are localized in the brain and thus far have no known biochemical and pharmacological characteristics consistent with other receptor proteins or metabolic enzymes in the central nervous system. The oxidative metabolism of catecholamines in the brain, especially the catabolism of dopamine and its conjugation with metabolic brain proteins, results in the production of highly toxic free radicals. Since …
