  • Title: Lumbar cerebrospinal fluid homovanillic acid concentrations are higher in female than male non-human primates.
    Author: Seegal RF.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1985 May 20; 334(2):375-9. PubMed ID: 2581673.
    Abstract:
    Concentrations of homovanillic acid and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid were determined in lumbar cerebrospinal fluid from intact male and female Macaca nemestrina. Concentrations of homovanillic acid, but not 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid were significantly higher in the females under baseline conditions. Following probenecid treatment, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid concentrations were significantly elevated over baseline conditions in both sexes although only homovanillic acid concentrations were significantly higher in the female monkeys.
