PDF Regulation of Blood Pressure during Exercise: Implications for the Role of Dopamine-O-Sulfoconjugate

【Supercategory:7. DESCENTE SPORTS SCIENCE Subcategory:7.5 Vol.5

 1. Dopamine sulfoconjugated isomers were synthesized chemically and used for determinations of them in urine.
 2. Dopamine-O-sulfoconjugate and free adrenaline, noradrenaline and dopamine in urine were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography.
 3. Increase of systolic blood pressure during exercise (3 km running) was associated with parallel increase in the free noradrenaline excretion in urine.
 4. Excretion of dopamine-3-O-sulfoconjugate 1hr after the cessation of exercise decreased to lower levels (1.7±0.6 nmol/min) than that of pre-exercise levels (2.3±0.5 nmol/min).
 5. Negative phase response of systolic blood pressure for recovery of exercise was correlated with dopamine-3-O-sulfoconjugate excretion.
