3,4-Dihydroxyphenylglycolaldehyde (DOPEGAL), also known as 3,4-dihydroxymandelaldehyde (DHMAL) as well as norepinephrine aldehyde or epinephrine aldehyde, is a metabolite of the monoamine neurotransmitters norepinephrine and epinephrine. DOPEGAL is a noradrenergic neurotoxin.[1]
Formation
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bd/Noradrenaline_breakdown.svg/350px-Noradrenaline_breakdown.svg.png)
DOPEGAL is formed by monoamine oxidase (MAO) via oxidative deamination.[3][4][5][6][7][8] Following its formation, DOPEGAL is metabolized. Through the metabolism process, it is converted into 3,4-dihydroxymandelic acid (DHMA) via aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), or into 3,4-dihydroxyphenylglycol (DHPG) via aldehyde reductase (ALR).[2][4][5][6][7]
