Metabolite Identification
Common NameMethysergide
DescriptionMethysergide, also known as metisergida, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as lysergamides. These are amides of Lysergic acids. Methysergide is a drug which is used for the treatment of vascular headache. A synthetic ergot alkaloid, structurally related to the oxytocic agent methylergonovine and to the potent hallucinogen LSD and used prophylactically to reduce the frequency and intensity of severe vascular headaches. Methysergide is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Methysergide is a potentially toxic compound.

General function:
Involved in G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway
Specific function:
This is one of the several different receptors for 5- hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone, and a mitogen. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase
