Age variation in the increase of hypothalamic and brain stem contents of phenylethanolamine m-octopamine and p-octopamine in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SH Kyoto).

Phenylethanolamine, m-octopamine and p-octopamine contents were determined as a function of age in the hypothalamus and brain stem of spontaneously hypertensive rats and controls Wistar Kyoto. In hypothalamus, the content of the 3 amines was 2--4-fold greater for the SH rats. In the brain stem, the phenylethanolamine and p-octopamine contents were 2--3-fold greater in SH rats but 5--6-fold higher in the case of m-octopamine. The difference appears at 3 weeks and correlates the blood pressure with the increase of age. The significance of these findings is discussed.

Influence of phenylethanolamine on octopamine plasma determination in hepatic encephalopathy.

Octopamine and phenylethanolamine levels were measured by a radioenzymatic procedure in 30 cirrhotic patients with and without hepatic coma and in 15 normal controls. Octopamine data were obtained either by direct extraction with 40% isoamyl alcohol in toluene according to Molinoff et al. (Molinoff, P.B., Landsberg, L. and Axelrod, J. (1969) J. Pharm. Exp. Ther. 170, 253), or after pre-extraction of phenylethanolamine with 3% isoamyl alcohol in toluene. Phenylethanolamine was statistically correlated with the grade of hepatic encephalopathy. Octopamine levels also appeared to parallel the grade of coma, although the values obtained after pre-extraction were lower and less significant than those obtained with 40% isoamyl alcohol in toluene extraction. The higher values of directly extracted octopamine are due to contamination of other beta-hydroxylated phenylethylamines, among which is phenylethanolamine.
