5-Hydroxyindole (Standard)

• Description :

  5-Hydroxyindole (Standard) is the analytical standard of 5-Hydroxyindole (HY-W001160) . This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 5-Hydroxyindole is an orally active hydroxylated indole and tryptophan metabolite. 5-Hydroxyindole activates α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and acts on intestinal L-type calcium channels. 5-Hydroxyindole slows down the desensitization of 5-HT3 receptor-mediated ion currents in cells. 5-Hydroxyindole causes convulsions and loss of consciousness. 5-Hydroxyindole is used in the study of neuroblastoma, schizophrenia, and diseases related to intestinal motility disorders[1][2][3][4][5][6][7].
