racemetirosine and Inadequate Sleep

racemetirosine has been researched along with Inadequate Sleep in 7 studies

alpha-Methyltyrosine: An inhibitor of the enzyme TYROSINE 3-MONOOXYGENASE, and consequently of the synthesis of catecholamines. It is used to control the symptoms of excessive sympathetic stimulation in patients with PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA. (Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Furthermore, mood effects following sleep deprivation plus AMPT suggest that catecholamines may be involved in mood changes during sleep deprivation."2.67Effects of catecholamine depletion on alertness and mood in rested and sleep deprived normal volunteers. ( Belenky, G; Gillin, JC; McCann, UD; Penetar, DM; Shaham, Y; Sing, HC; Thomas, ML; Thorne, DR, 1993)
"Treatment with AMPT or treatment with sleep deprivation increased sleepiness without producing marked or consistent deterioration in performance."2.67Sleep deprivation and impaired cognition. Possible role of brain catecholamines. ( Belenky, G; Gillin, JC; McCann, UD; Penetar, DM; Shaham, Y; Sing, HC; Thomas, MA; Thorne, DR, 1992)
" The dose-response relationship shifted to the left following REMs deprivation (ED50 values in the group-housed, isolated, and REMs-deprived mice were 250, 200, and 27 micrograms/kg, respectively)."1.29Monoamine depletion attenuates the REM sleep deprivation-induced increase in clonidine response in the forced swimming test. ( Asakura, W; Matsumoto, K; Ohta, H; Watanabe, H, 1994)
