5-hydroxytryptophan and Anoxia, Brain

5-hydroxytryptophan has been researched along with Anoxia, Brain in 10 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The data suggest that this rat cardiac arrest model may be a valuable tool for investigating the pathophysiologic mechanisms of posthypoxic myoclonus and for developing new therapeutic strategies for treating the disorder."1.29Novel rat cardiac arrest model of posthypoxic myoclonus. ( Hussong, MJ; Matsumoto, RR; Schwartz, PH; Truong, DD; Wasterlain, CG, 1994)
"The auditory-induced myoclonus continues to worsen, reaches a peak about 2 weeks after the arrest, then declines over time to subnormal levels."1.29Novel rat cardiac arrest model of posthypoxic myoclonus. ( Hussong, MJ; Matsumoto, RR; Schwartz, PH; Truong, DD; Wasterlain, CG, 1994)
"In 18 patients with intention myoclonus due to anoxia or other brain damage, 11 derived more than 50% overall improvement during treatment with L-5HTP and carbidopa."1.26Long-term therapy of myoclonus and other neurologic disorders with L-5-hydroxytryptophan and carbidopa. ( Bowers, MB; Howieson, J; Rosenbaum, D; Van Woert, MH, 1977)
"The neurochemical basis of myoclonus responding to 5HT precursors and clonazepam is discussed."1.26Clinical, biochemical, and physiological features distinguishing myoclonus responsive to 5-hydroxytryptophan, tryptophan with a monoamine oxidase inhibitor, and clonazepam. ( Chadwick, D; Hallett, M; Harris, R; Jenner, P; Marsden, CD; Reynolds, EH, 1977)
