2. 5-Hydroxytryptophan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-Hydroxytryptophan

   5-HTP is produced from the amino acid tryptophan through the action of the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase. Tryptophan hydroxylase is one of the biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. Production of 5-HTP is the rate-limiting step in 5-HT (serotonin) synthesis. 5-HTP is normally rapidly converted to 5-HT by amino acid decarboxylase. [1]

3. Oxitriptan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxitriptan

   5-HTP is rapidly absorbed with a t max of ≈1.5 h, and rapidly eliminated with a half-life of ≈1.5 – 2 h. Co-administration of a decarboxylase inhibitor (e.g., carbidopa, benserazide ) doubles the half-life of 5-HTP to ≈ 3 – 4 h , [ 37 ] [ 34 ] and enhances exposure several-fold, depending on the dosing regimen.

4. Carbidopa/oxitriptan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbidopa/oxitriptan

   Carbidopa/oxitriptan (developmental code name EVX-101), or carbidopa/5-hydroxytryptophan (carbidopa/5-HTP), is a combination of 5-hydroxytryptophan (oxitriptan), a serotonin precursor, and carbidopa, a peripherally selective aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor, which is under development as an antidepressant for the treatment of depressive disorders. [1]

5. Melatonin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melatonin

   The initial step in the melatonin biosynthesis pathway is the hydroxylation of L-tryptophan's indole ring by the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase, resulting in the formation of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP). Subsequently, 5-HTP undergoes decarboxylation, facilitated by pyridoxal phosphate and the enzyme 5-hydroxytryptophan decarboxylase, yielding ...

7. 5-HT receptor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT_receptor

   5-HT receptors, 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors, or serotonin receptors, are a group of G protein-coupled receptor and ligand-gated ion channels found in the central and peripheral nervous systems. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] They mediate both excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission .
