  • Title: Catecholamines in the vasculature of the rat and rabbit: dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine.
    Author: Head RJ, Hempstead J, Berkowitz BA.
    Journal: Blood Vessels; 1982; 19(3):135-47. PubMed ID: 7074227.
    Abstract:
    A highly sensitive radioenzymatic assay for the measurement of catecholamines in small blood vessels was applied to the measurement of the levels of norepinephrine (NE), dopamine (DA) and epinephrine (E). The results showed the presence of NE, E and DA in all segments of rat or rabbit vascular tissue analyzed. The predominant catecholamine in the vasculature from both species was NE, and the contents of E and DA were similar for most vessels. Unexpectedly large concentrations of E were associated with rabbit blood vessels.
