Auszug
Die wichtigsten Hormone des Nebennierenmarks sind die physiologisch aktiven Katecholamine Dopamin, Noradrenalin und Adrenalin. Außerhalb des Nebennierenmarks werden die Katecholamine im Gehirn, in den sympathischen Nervenendigungen und in den chromaffinen Geweben gebildet. Die wichtigsten Metabolite der Katecholamine sind Vanillin- und Homovanillinmandelsäure sowie Meta- und Normetanephrin, die im Urin ausgeschieden werden. Die Messung der Metanephrine und Katecholamine im Serum oder im Urin wird für die Diagnose hormonaktiver Tumoren des Nebennierenmarks oder des Grenzstrangs herangezogen.
