  2. Phenethylamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenethylamine

    Phenethylamine [note 1] (PEA) is an organic compound, natural monoamine alkaloid, and trace amine, which acts as a central nervous system stimulant in humans. In the brain, phenethylamine regulates monoamine neurotransmission by binding to trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) and inhibiting vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoaminergic_activity...

    It is known that brain levels of phenethylamine, a known endogenous enhancer substance, decline with age. [7] This may be due to progressively increased levels of MAO-B with age. [7] Decreased levels of phenethylamine may contribute to reduced activation of the enhancer regulation system and reduced brain catecholamine release with age. [9]

    This is caused by low levels of tyrosine, whose metabolic pathway is blocked by deficiency of PAH. Another skin alteration that might occur is the presence of irritation or dermatitis. The child's behaviour may be influenced as well due to augmented levels of phenethylamine which in turn affects levels of other amines in the brain.

  5. Pharmacology of selegiline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharmacology_of_selegiline

    Besides affecting circulating catecholamine levels and increasing brain dopamine levels via MAO-B inhibition, selegiline strongly increases endogenous levels of β-phenethylamine, a major substrate of MAO-B. [13] Levels of β-phenethylamine in the brain are increased 10- to 30-fold and levels in urine are increased 20- to 90-fold.

  6. Trace amine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_amine

    [3] [4] [10] Trace aminergic hypo-function is particularly relevant to ADHD, since urinary and plasma phenethylamine concentrations are significantly lower in individuals with ADHD relative to controls and the two most commonly prescribed drugs for ADHD, amphetamine and methylphenidate, increase phenethylamine biosynthesis in treatment ...

    Cheese, especially the aged kind, like brie, swiss, parmesan, blue, and cheddar contains high levels of tyramine — a compound formed from the breakdown of the amino acid tyrosine. This chemical ...

  8. List of naturally occurring phenethylamines - Wikipedia

    Naturally occurring phenethylamines are organic compounds which may be thought of as being derived from phenethylamine itself that are found in living organisms. Tyramine is a phenethylamine that occurs widely in plants [ 1 ] and animals , and is metabolized by various enzymes , including monoamine oxidases .

    Frieden, the CDC director, said he has been stunned at the level of opposition to the medication from some in the treatment community. “I was at an event about prescription overdoses and I mentioned buprenorphine and I got booed,” he said. “I hope they would kind of understand that other people are going to want to use buprenorphine. …
