“ Carbidopa , in a dose-dependent manner, attenuated or completely prevented MDL-induced stimulation of melatonin biosynthesis in the pineal gland located outside the blood-brain-barrier.”
The acute effect of the bioprecursor of the selective brain MAO-A inhibitor, MDL 72392, on rat pineal melatonin biosynthesis.“In these experiments, rats were treated with a dose of the aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor, carbidopa , that was sufficient to inhibit the synthesis of pineal serotonin and melatonin but not brain serotonin (Oxenkrug et al. 1984b).”
“ Carbidopa , an aromatic acid decarboxylase inhibitor, has been shown to significantly decrease the pineal concentration of melatonin , N‐acetyl serotonin (NAS), serotonin (5‐HT), and 5‐hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5‐HIAA) but not the hypothalamic concentrations of these indoles.”
