5-羥色氨酸

5-羥色氨酸(英語:5-Hydroxytryptophan,簡稱5-HTP),也叫歐西曲坦(INN:oxitriptan),是一種天然氨基酸代謝中間產物,同時也是血清素褪黑素生物合成前體

5-羥色氨酸作為給抑鬱症厭食症失眠患者服用的膳食補充劑,在美國英國加拿大非處方方式出售;同時也作為治療重性抑鬱障礙的藥物在歐洲許多國家銷售。[1][2]幾個安慰劑雙盲臨床試驗已證明5-HTP有治療抑鬱症的效果[1],但缺乏極顯著性[3],需要更進一步的臨床對照研究[4]

代謝

神經組織肝細胞[5],5-羥色氨酸在芳香族L-氨基酸脫羧酶維生素B6幫助下脫羧生成血清素(5-羥色胺)[6]。 5-羥色氨酸可以穿過血腦屏障[7],但血清素不能。過量的5-羥色氨酸會被代謝排出體外,體內的維生素B6會促進這種代謝。[8][9]
