Plasma concentrations of the major brain metabolite of norepinephrine, 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenethyleneglycol (MHPG), were assayed in patients with essential, renovascular hypertension, pheochromocytoma and in controls. The concentration of MHPG was significantly elevated in patients suffering from pheochromocytoma and was found to be related to tumor size.
对原发性高血压、肾血管性高血压、嗜铬细胞瘤患者及对照组测定了去甲肾上腺素的主要脑代谢产物3-甲氧基-4-羟基苯乙二醇(MHPG)的血浆浓度。嗜铬细胞瘤患者的MHPG浓度显著升高,且发现其与肿瘤大小有关。
