5-hydroxytryptophan and Brain Damage, Chronic

5-hydroxytryptophan has been researched along with Brain Damage, Chronic in 3 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.

Brain Damage, Chronic: A condition characterized by long-standing brain dysfunction or damage, usually of three months duration or longer. Potential etiologies include BRAIN INFARCTION; certain NEURODEGENERATIVE DISORDERS; CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA; ANOXIA, BRAIN; ENCEPHALITIS; certain NEUROTOXICITY SYNDROMES; metabolic disorders (see BRAIN DISEASES, METABOLIC); and other conditions.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A patient with long-standing intention myoclonus was treated with oral clonazepam, which resulted in clinical and electrophysiologic improvement as manifested by dramatic reduction in intention myoclonus and diminished amplitude of somatosensory evoked potentials after treatment."1.27Posttraumatic intention myoclonus. ( Bjork, RJ; Snyder, BD; Starosta-Rubinstein, S; Tulloch, JW, 1983)
