5-Carboxamidotryptamine

Description:

5-Carboxamidotryptamine, also known as 5-CT, is a chemical compound that belongs to the tryptamine family, which is characterized by its indole structure. This substance is notable for its role as a selective agonist for serotonin receptors, particularly the 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 receptor subtypes. It is often studied in pharmacological research due to its potential effects on mood and behavior, as well as its implications in understanding serotonin-related disorders. The compound is typically found in a crystalline form and is soluble in water, which facilitates its use in various biological assays. Its molecular structure includes a carboxamide group, contributing to its polar characteristics and influencing its interaction with biological systems. As with many tryptamines, 5-Carboxamidotryptamine may exhibit psychoactive properties, although its specific effects can vary based on dosage and the biological context. Safety and handling precautions are essential when working with this compound, as with any chemical substance that interacts with neurotransmitter systems.

5-Carboxamidotryptamine

CAS: 74885-09-9

5-Carboxamidotryptamine is a drug that inhibits the enzyme cytochrome P450 and has been shown to have antioxidative properties. 5-Carboxamidotryptamine has been shown to be a low potency inhibitor of the 5-HT2 receptor, which may be due to its ability to act as a cyclase inhibitor. 5-Carboxamidotryptamine has also been shown to behave as a ligand for the 5-HT7 receptor with low affinity, although it does not inhibit the activity of this receptor.
