Direct inhibition of tyrosine hydroxylase activity by catechol estrogens.
Open accessAbstract
Catechol estrogens, the 2-hydroxylated metabolites of estrogens, recently shown to be formed in brain, inhibit tyrosine hydroxylase, the enzyme that catalyzes the pivotal step in the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine. The nature of the inhibition is by competition with the pterin cofactor and thus resembles feedback inhibition of the enzyme by catecholamines.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
