Description

Hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde (HIAA) is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of serotonin. It is produced from tryptophan through a series of enzymatic reactions. HIAA is further metabolized to 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), which is the major urinary metabolite of serotonin. HIAA levels in the body are often used as an indicator of serotonin production and metabolism. Research suggests that HIAA may play a role in various neurological processes, including mood regulation, sleep, and appetite. Altered levels of HIAA have been associated with conditions such as depression, anxiety, and neurodevelopmental disorders. Studying HIAA can help elucidate the mechanisms of serotonin biosynthesis and metabolism, and its involvement in various physiological and pathological processes.'
