Effects of nepicastat upon dopamine-β-hydroxylase activity and dopamine and norepinephrine levels in the rat left ventricle, kidney, and adrenal gland

Background and Objective: Evaluate the activity of dopamine-β-hydroxylase (DβH) as well as the effect of the DβH inhibitor nepicastat upon enzyme activity and levels of dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE) in the rat left ventricle, kidney, and adrenal glands. Methods: DβH assay consisted of the en...
