Monoamine metabolites in human cerebrospinal fluid: indicators of neuronal activity?
Med Biol.
1985.
Abstract
Concentrations of monoamine metabolites in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) have been widely used as indicators of the level of functional activity in the central monoaminergic neuronal pathways. This article reviews the relationship between the turnover of the neurotransmitter monoamines noradrenaline, serotonin, and dopamine, and the concentrations in CSF of their principal metabolites, 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), and homovanillic acid (HVA). It attempts to summarise what is known of the effects of various illnesses and drug treatments on the concentrations of these metabolites.
