Abstract
The ingestion of a single, 40% protein meal increased serum and retinal tyrosine levels and stimulated retinal tyrosine hydroxylation rate in light-adapted rats. Consumption of a similar, protein-free meal elicited none of these effects. The results thus indicate for retinal dopamine neurons that physiologically induced increases in tyrosine level can readily stimulate in vivo tyrosine hydroxylation rate.
