homovanillic acid and Heart Failure

homovanillic acid has been researched along with Heart Failure in 1 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.

Heart Failure: A heterogeneous condition in which the heart is unable to pump out sufficient blood to meet the metabolic need of the body. Heart failure can be caused by structural defects, functional abnormalities (VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION), or a sudden overload beyond its capacity. Chronic heart failure is more common than acute heart failure which results from sudden insult to cardiac function, such as MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Sixteen patients with chronic congestive heart failure (CHF) and 6 patients with pure autonomic failure (PAF) were also studied to investigate possible effects of sympathetic nervous system overactivity and underactivity on peripheral HVA production and plasma HVA concentration."1.29Regional homovanillic acid production in humans.
