Application
Adrenochrome has been used to study the effect of adrenochrome on coronary artery constriction in the rat heart.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Adrenochrome is an oxidation product of adrenaline. It has been implicated in cardiotoxicity. It is a short-lived cytotoxic molecule and is part of the leukocyte response used to kill bacteria. Adrenochrome is also suggested to exhibit psychotomimetic effects. It is used to determine superoxide dismutase activity.
