As with DMT, CYB004 is a potent agonist of the serotonin 5-HT 2A receptor and produces psychedelic-like effects in animals. [ 1 ] [ 5 ] [ 3 ] However, CYB004, due to its deuteration, is more resistant to metabolism than DMT and shows a longer elimination half-life (by 2.5- to 2.9-fold) and slower clearance (by 38 to 55%) in animals.

These two studies are some of the first large controlled studies measuring the effects of psychedelic therapy on depression and anxiety in cancer patients. [66] Across clinician-ratings and self-ratings, the psychedelic treatment produced statistically significant lowered anxiety and depression, with sustenance for at least 6 months.
[164] [166] [167] Similarly to DMT, 5-MeO-DMT is a biased agonist of the serotonin 5-HT 2A receptor, with minimal β-arrestin2 recruitment, and likewise has been associated with little tolerance to its hallucinogenic effects. [168] [142] As DMT has been shown to have slightly better efficacy (EC 50) at human serotonin 2C receptor than at the 2A ...
5-MeO-DMT is being developed and evaluated for potential therapeutic effects in patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). [57] Biopharmaceutical company GH Research has sponsored a completed phase 1 study in healthy volunteers [ 58 ] and phase 1/2 study in TRD patients where 87.5% of patients with TRD were brought into remission on ...
6-MeO-DMT, or 6-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, also known as 6-OMe-DMT, is a serotonergic drug of the tryptamine family. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is the 6- methoxy derivative of the serotonergic psychedelic N , N -dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and is a positional isomer of the serotonergic psychedelic 5-MeO-DMT .
To date studies have explored the utility of psilocybin in a variety of diseases, including TRD, [14] [15] smoking addiction, [16] [17] and anxiety and depression in people with cancer diagnoses. [18] LSD is being tested in phase 2 trials for cluster headaches and anxiety. [19] DMT is being studied for depression. [20]
Although anxiety can temporarily increase as a withdrawal symptom, there is evidence that a reduction or withdrawal from benzodiazepines can lead to a reduction of anxiety symptoms in the long run. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Due to these increasing physical and mental symptoms from long-term use of benzodiazepines, slow withdrawal is recommended for long-term ...
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI) have been known to prolong and enhance the effects of dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and one study assumed that the effect on psilocybin would be similar since it is a structural analogue of DMT. [143] However, only a small portion of psilocin appears to be metabolized by MAO. [16]
