The effect of increasing single oral doses of the novel catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitor, nitecapone, on enzyme activity in red cells (RBC) and gastroduodenal COMT activity has been studied in healthy male volunteers. A dose-dependent decrease in RBC COMT activity was seen in all cases

The multistep assay of specific catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) activity in human erythrocytes was validated. Enzyme preparations from lysed erythrocytes were incubated with a substrate (3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid) in the presence of Mg2+ and S-adenosylmethionine. The reaction products (vanillic
