Tryptamine NEW

Tryptamine is a monoamine alkaloid found in plants, animals, and fungi, containing an indole nucleus that is structurally similar to tryptophan (lacking a carboxyl group), hence its name. It exists in trace amounts in the mammalian brain and is thought to act as a neuromodulator and neurotransmitter. Tryptamines are a group of compounds whose parent structure is tryptamines and contain many biologically active substances, such as neurotransmitters.

Tryptamine is a monoamine alkaloid that may function as a neuromodulator and neurotransmitter. It is an agonist for hTAAR1, as well as a non-selective serotoninreceptor agonist and serotonin-norepinephrine-dopamine releaser (SNDRA).
