title: Inhibition of dopamine beta-hydroxylase by goitrin, a natural antithyroid compound.
abstract: RS-Goitrin can be conveniently prepared by a simplification of the Ettlinger procedure. Goitrin is a moderate inhibitor of purified bovine adrenal dopamine beta-hydroxylase. The administration of goitrin leads to a depression of brain norepinephrine and to an elevation of heart and adrenal dopamine.
