Serotonin - PubChem

Serotonin - Compound Summary (CID 4048638) Also known as: CHEBI:350546, serotonin cation, Hydroxytryptamine, 3brn, AC1N2LKD, ZINC00057058, 2-(5-hydroxy-1H-indol-3-yl)ethanaminium Molecular Formula: C₁₀H₁₃N₂O⁺ Molecular Weight: 177.22302 InChIKey: QZAYGJVTTNCVMB-UHFFFAOYSA-O A biochemical messenger and regulator, synthesized from the essential amino acid L-TRYPTOPHAN. In humans it is found primarily in the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and blood platelets. Serotonin mediates several important physiological functions including neurotransmission, gastrointestinal motility, hemostasis, and cardiovascular integrity. Multiple receptor families (RECEPTORS, SEROTONIN) explain the broad physiological actions and distribution of this biochemical mediator.
