Metabolite Identification
Common NameN-Hydroxyl-tryptamine
DescriptionN-hydroxyl-tryptamine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 3-alkylindoles. 3-alkylindoles are compounds containing an indole moiety that carries an alkyl chain at the 3-position. N-hydroxyl-tryptamine has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as pak choys (Brassica rapa var. chinensis), eggplants (Solanum melongena), limes (Citrus aurantiifolia), oval-leaf huckleberries (Vaccinium ovalifolium), and chinese cinnamons (Cinnamomum aromaticum). This could make N-hydroxyl-tryptamine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. N-hydroxyl-tryptamine is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on N-hydroxyl-tryptamine. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). N-hydroxyl-tryptamine is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically N-Hydroxyl-tryptamine is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
