5-Methoxytryptamine hydrochloride  (Synonyms: 5-甲氧基色胺盐酸盐)

5-Methoxytryptamine hydrochloride, a metabolite of Melatonin, is a nonselective 5-HT receptor agonist. 5-Methoxytryptamine hydrochloride has no affinity for the 5-HT3 receptor. 5-Methoxytryptamine hydrochloride is also a potent antioxidant and has radioprotective action^[1][2][3].

5-Methoxytryptamine hydrochloride induces a significant hyperglycemia above the dosage of 1 mg/kg in rats^[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
