5-hydroxytryptophan and Adrenal Cortex Neoplasms

5-hydroxytryptophan has been researched along with Adrenal Cortex Neoplasms in 1 studies

5-Hydroxytryptophan: The immediate precursor in the biosynthesis of SEROTONIN from tryptophan. It is used as an antiepileptic and antidepressant.
5-hydroxytryptophan : A tryptophan derivative that is tryptophan substituted by a hydroxy group at position 5.

Adrenal Cortex Neoplasms: Tumors or cancers of the ADRENAL CORTEX.
