Beschreibung

2-Methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine (2-Me-5HT) is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter that belongs to the group of 5-HT receptor agonists. It induces platelet aggregation, chemotaxis, and anesthetization in animals. 2-Me-5HT can also induce cytosolic calcium ion levels by activating the enzyme phospholipase C. This activation leads to an increase in intracellular calcium ion levels, which can be measured using microdialysis probes or plate tests. 2-Me-5HT is a potent antagonist at 5-HT3 receptors and shows potent effects against 5HT2 receptors when administered as a monoclonal antibody. This drug has been shown to have locomotor activity and stimulates dopamine release as well as exhibiting 5HT1a receptor agonist activity.
