Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous single isotope radioenzymatic assay of plasma norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine.
TL;DR: Modification of the original single isotope radioenzymatic assay of Passon and Peuler permits the direct and simultaneous analysis of norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine in plasma samples of 50 μl or less.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minoxidil sulfate is the active metabolite that stimulates hair follicles
TL;DR: These studies show that sulfation is a critical step for hair-growth effects of minoxidil and that it is the sulfated metabolite that directly affects hair follicles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radioenzymatic assay of sulfate conjugates of catecholamines and DOPA in plasma.
TL;DR: This assay methodology may be useful in demonstrating individual variations in the ability to sulfate endogenous catechols inStanding subjects, changes in the free levels and in the ratio of free to total levels of DA and DOPA were less than those noted for NE and E.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hair growth effects of oral administration of finasteride, a steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, alone and in combination with topical minoxidil in the balding stumptail macaque.

TL;DR: Inhibition of the conversion of T to DHT by this 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor reverses the balding process and enhances hair regrowth by topical minoxidil in the male balding stumptail macaque monkeys.

TL;DR: In this paper, the opening of intracellular potassium channels has been suggested as a mechanism regulating hair growth, which is a mechanism shared by several structurally diverse antihypertensive agents including minoxidil sulfate, pinacidil, P 1075, RP-49 356, diazoxide, cromakalim, and nicorandil.
