Metanephrine (metadrenaline) are classified as catecholamines hormone molecules and they can be produced as a metabolite of adrenaline (epinephrine). These are vital in the regulation of blood flow and pressure throughout the body during periods of physical and emotional stress. They can detect tumors such as pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas, since these tumors are found to be producing these hormones in excess.
