Product Information

• Name: 6-Hydroxytryptamine creatinine sulfate
• Synonyms: 3-(2-Aminoethyl)-indol-6-ol Creatinine Sulfate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 6-Hydroxytryptamine creatinine sulfate (HTPS) is a metabolite of serotonin and dopamine that can be found in human urine. HTPS is not active on its own, but it has been shown to increase blood pressure in rats when administered together with other substances such as 5-hydroxytryptamine. HTPS also interacts with noradrenaline and hydroxylates serotonin to produce 6-hydroxyserotonin. The biosynthesis of HTPS starts with the hydroxylation of tryptophan by tryptophan 4-hydroxylase (TPH), followed by the conversion of 5-hydroxytryptophan to 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5HIAA). This enzyme is inhibited by drugs such as clozapine, which is used for treatment of schizophrenia. 6-Hydroxytryptamine creatinine sulfate can be found in many tissues, including the brain and kidney
