During chemotherapy, ondansetron and tropisetron are used to antagonize the interaction of this molecule with its 5HT3 receptors, and ecstasy causes it to be released from synaptic vesicles at the 5HT-2A receptor.
A product of the breakdown of this molecule, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid, can be indicative of certain types of tumors if present in high concentration in the urine. During chemotherapy, ondansetron and tropisetron are used to antagonize the interaction of this molecule with its 5HT3 receptors, and ecstasy causes it to be released from synaptic vesicles at the 5HT-2A receptor. This neurotransmitter is found sequestered in platelets and in the gastrointestinal tract where it is synthesized in enterochromaffin cells from tryptophan. FTP, identify this monoamine neurotransmitter thought to affect sleep, mood, body temperature, and sexuality.
