homovanillic acid and Diseases in Twins

homovanillic acid has been researched along with Diseases in Twins in 7 studies

Homovanillic Acid: A 3-O-methyl ETHER of (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acetic acid.
homovanillate : A hydroxy monocarboxylic acid anion which is obtained by deprotonation of the carboxy group of homovanillic acid.
homovanillic acid : A monocarboxylic acid that is the 3-O-methyl ether of (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acetic acid. It is a catecholamine metabolite.

Diseases in Twins: Disorders affecting TWINS, one or both, at any age.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In this study, plasma obtained from monozygotic twin pairs discordant for schizophrenia (n = 10) or major affective disorder (n = 3) was assayed for epinephrine, norepinephrine, dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, homovanillic acid, adrencorticotropin hormone, and cortisol."3.71Plasma hormones and catecholamine metabolites in monozygotic twins discordant for psychosis. ( Bonsall, R; Walder, DJ; Walker, EF, 2002)
"Homovanillic acid levels were 65 and 60 ng/ml, respectively, and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid levels were 36 and 39 ng/ml."1.28Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome in twins: clinical and neurochemical data. ( Goetz, CG; Tanner, CM, 1990)
