Description
(extracted from source data)
PHARMACODYNAMICS
The psychoactive action of 5-HTP is thought to be due to increased serotonin production in central nervous system tissue.
METABOLISM
5-Hydroxytryptophan is decarboxylated to serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT) by the enzyme aromatic-L-amino-acid decarboxylase via a vitamin B6 dependent reaction in nervous tissue and in the liver.
DESCRIPTION
L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (L-5-HTP), a naturally occurring amino acid and a dietary supplement for use as an antidepressant, appetite suppressant, and sleep aid, is the immediate precursor of the neurotransmitter serotonin and a reserpine antagonist[1]. L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (L-5-HTP) is used to treat fibromyalgia, myoclonus, migraine, and cerebellar ataxia[2][3][4][5].

DESCRIPTION
Oxitriptan is a naturally occurring amino acid that is used to manage post-hypoxic myoclonus. It is a naturally occurring amino acid and metabolic intermediate in the synthesis of serotonin and melatonin.

DESCRIPTION
5-Hydroxy-L-tryptophan-4,6,7-d3 is L-5-Hydroxytryptophan labeled with 2H. L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (L-5-HTP) is a dietary supplement and a precursor to serotonin, which inhibits the IFN-γ induced PD-L1 expression. It promotes anti-tumor immunity and is used in research on migraine and depression.
