Benzylamine, also known as phenylmethylamine, is an organic chemical compound with the condensed structural formula C 6 H 5 CH 2 NH 2 (sometimes abbreviated as PhCH 2 NH 2 or BnNH 2).It consists of a benzyl group, C 6 H 5 CH 2, attached to an amine functional group, NH 2.
Xylamine is a monoaminergic neurotoxin and benzylamine derivative that is closely related to DSP-4. [1] [2] It is a relatively selective noradrenergic neurotoxin, which is attributed to its high affinity for the norepinephrine transporter (NET). [1]
Benzidine (trivial name), also called 1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (systematic name), is an organic compound with the formula (C 6 H 4 NH 2) 2. It is an aromatic amine. It is a component of a test for cyanide. Related derivatives are used in the production of dyes. Benzidine has been linked to bladder and pancreatic cancer. [2]
Neurochemistry is the study of the different types, structures, and functions of neurons and their chemical components. Chemical signaling between neurons is mediated by neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, hormones, neuromodulators, and many other types of signaling molecules.
The biological basis of personality is a collection of brain systems and mechanisms that underlie human personality. Human neurobiology, especially as it relates to complex traits and behaviors, is not well understood, but research into the neuroanatomical and functional underpinnings of personality are an active field of research.
Test batteries such as the PACE (Personal Assessment and Crisis Evaluation Clinic) and COPS (Criteria of Prodromal Syndromes), which measure low-level psychotic symptoms and cognitive disturbances, are used to evaluate people with early, low-level symptoms of psychosis.
The wide structural variety and divergent chemical properties of organochlorides lead to a broad range of names, applications, and properties. Organochlorine compounds have wide use in many applications, though some are of profound environmental concern, with TCDD being one of the most notorious.
Benzodiazepines share a similar chemical structure, and their effects in humans are mainly produced by the allosteric modification of a specific kind of neurotransmitter receptor, the GABA A receptor, which increases the overall conductance of these inhibitory channels; this results in the various therapeutic effects as well as adverse effects ...
