5-hydroxytryptophan and Hypoxia

5-hydroxytryptophan has been researched along with Hypoxia in 26 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.

"The effects of cinepazide, a vasodilator, on the content, biosynthesis and turnover of noradrenaline (NA), dopamine (DA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in the rat brain were examined under room air and hypoxia (10% O2, 90% N2)."7.67The effects of cinepazide on the content, biosynthesis and turnover of noradrenaline, dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine in the rat brain under room air and hypoxia.

( de Fine Olivarius, B; Dupont, E; Engbaek, F; Magnussen, I, 1978)
