5-hydroxytryptophan and Ischemic Attack, Transient

5-hydroxytryptophan has been researched along with Ischemic Attack, Transient in 2 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.

Ischemic Attack, Transient: Brief reversible episodes of focal, nonconvulsive ischemic dysfunction of the brain having a duration of less than 24 hours, and usually less than one hour, caused by transient thrombotic or embolic blood vessel occlusion or stenosis. Events may be classified by arterial distribution, temporal pattern, or etiology (e.g., embolic vs. thrombotic). (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp814-6)

"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)
