Abstract
Monoamine levels in brain and urine of homozygous and heterozygous diabetes insipidus (DI) rats (Brattleboro strain) were assessed. Homozygous DI rats had a higher whole brain content of serotonin than their heterozygous littermates. However, when corrected for differences in brain weight, homozygous DI also appeared to have higher brain concentrations of noradrenaline, tyrosine and GABA. The total 24 h excretion of all amines and their precursors was greater in the homozygous than in the heterozygous rats.
