Dopamine

•  Epinephrine

  Epinephrine, widely called adrenaline, is a hormone and neurotransmitter. When produced in the body it increases heart rate, contracts blood vessels and dilates air passages and participates in the fight-or-flight response of the sympathetic nervous system. It is a catecholamine, a monoamine produced only by the adrenal glands from the amino acids phenylalanine and tyrosine.

•  Methyldopa

  Methyldopa (-α-Methyl-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine; Aldomet, Aldoril, Dopamet, Dopegyt, etc) is a psychoactive drug used as a sympatholytic or antihypertensive. Its use is now deprecated following introduction of alternative safer classes of agents. However, it continues to have a role in otherwise difficult to treat hypertension and gestational hypertension (also known as pregnancy-induced hypertension).

•  Isoprenaline

  Isoprenaline or isoproterenol (USAN, trade names Medihaler-Iso and Isuprel) is a sympathomimetic beta adrenergic agonist medication. It is structurally similar to adrenaline but acts selectively on beta receptors, activating β1 and β2 receptors equally.

•  D-DOPA

  -DOPA (-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine; Dextrodopa) is similar to -DOPA (Levodopa), but with opposite chirality. Levo- and dextro- rotation reference a molecule's ability to rotate planes of polarized light in either direction. Whereas -DOPA is moderately effective in the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD), -DOPA is biologically inactive.

•  Hexoprenaline

  Hexoprenaline is a β2-adrenergic receptor agonist used in the treatment of asthma. Hexoprenaline is also used as a tocolytic agent i.e. It can suppress labor. Contraindications to its use as a tocolytic agent are cardiovascular disease, surgical shock, tachycardia, diabetes mellitis.

•  Lampyrini

  The Lampyrini are a tribe of fireflies in the large subfamily Lampyrinae. The lineage formerly separated as Pleotomini seems to be a specialized offshoot of the Lampyrini not too distant from the type genus Lampyris and is therefore included here. This tribe occurs throughout the Holarctic and contains the typical "glowing" or "continuous-light" fireflies from that region.
