Description

5-Amino-1-pentanol is a chemical compound that has been shown to stimulate angiogenesis, which is the process of developing new blood vessels from pre-existing ones. It is not currently approved for use in humans and has only been tested on mice. 5-Amino-1-pentanol stimulates angiogenesis by binding to the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) protein, which is involved in regulating blood vessel formation. This drug also suppresses cancer gene expression and selectively binds to DNA polymerase α. The amide group of 5-amino-1-pentanol reacts with trifluoroacetic acid to form an amine, which then reacts with water vapor to form a hydroxyl group. This reaction solution can be used as a diagnostic tool for detecting the presence of amines or other nitrogenous compounds.
