Noradrenaline Metabolism (Venous Wall) (N/A)
- Target
- N/A
- Molecular classification
- Enzyme (MAO, COMT), G protein-coupled receptor (Adrenergic receptors)
01
Overview
Noradrenaline metabolism in the venous wall involves the breakdown of noradrenaline by MAO and COMT, as well as its interaction with alpha and beta adrenergic receptors. This process regulates venous smooth muscle tone, influencing venous return and blood pressure. The primary effect is venoconstriction mediated by alpha-adrenoceptors. Clinically, noradrenaline is used to treat hypotension and shock, but its use carries risks such as tissue necrosis and hypertension.
