3-甲氧基酪胺

化合物

3-甲氧基酪胺3-MT),或称3-甲氧基-4-羟基苯乙胺,是一种人体痕量胺,是神经递质多巴胺代谢产物[1]通过儿茶酚-O-甲基转移酶(COMT)将一个甲基引入多巴胺而形成。3-MT可进一步被单胺氧化酶(MAO)代谢形成高香草酸(HVA),然后随尿液排出人体。

The highest level of brain CYP2D activity was found in the substantia nigra ... The in vitro and in vivo studies have shown the contribution of the alternative CYP2D-mediated dopamine synthesis to the concentration of this neurotransmitter although the classic biosynthetic route to dopamine from tyrosine is active. ... Tyramine levels are especially high in the basal ganglia and limbic system, which are thought to be related to individual behavior and emotion (Yu et al., 2003c). ... Rat CYP2D isoforms (2D2/2D4/2D18) are less efficient than human CYP2D6 for the generation of dopamine from p-tyramine. The Km values of the CYP2D isoforms are as follows: CYP2D6 (87–121 μm) ≈ CYP2D2 ≈ CYP2D18 > CYP2D4 (256 μm) for m-tyramine and CYP2D4 (433 μm) > CYP2D2 ≈ CYP2D6 > CYP2D18 (688 μm) for p-tyramine
