Despite the widespread use of tyramine as a pharmacological tool to assess the effects of norepinephrine release from sympathetic nerve terminals, its vascular effects are not adequately characterized. In particular, previous results indicate that intravenous tyramine produces little if any

The over-expression of NF-κB signalling in both muscle and immune cells contribute to the pathology in dystrophic muscle. The anti-inflammatory properties of glucocorticoids, mediated predominantly through monomeric glucocorticoid receptor inhibition of transcription factors such as NF-κB (transrepression), are postulated to

Evidence suggests that compounds that increase the synaptic availability of more than one neurotransmitter have greater efficacy in the treatment of depression than single-acting drugs. Preclinical studies indicate that duloxetine acts to inhibit serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) transporters. The

At concentrations higher than that required to produce maximal vasoconstriction, tyramine caused concentration-dependent relaxation of rat aortic strips contracted maximally by tyramine, norepinephrine, phenylephrine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, prostaglandin F2 alpha, endothelin, angiotensin II and potassium; isoproterenol did not relax potassium-contracted strips.

Tyrosinase activity is monitored by pi-donor-acceptor force interactions between a bipyridinium-modified AFM tip and the biocatalytic reaction product generated on a tyramine- (or dopamine-) modified surface. Upon oxidation of the surface to dopaquinone as a result of tyrosinase activity, force
