transmitters

Melitracen hydrochloride (Thymeol hydrochloride) , an antidepressant, is used as potential dopamine D1 2 receptor antagonist to treat depression.

Tyramine (Uteramine) is an indirect sympathomimetic that occurs naturally in cheese and other foods. Tyramine does not directly activate adrenergic receptors, but it can serve as a substrate for adrenergic uptake systems and MONOAMINE OXIDASE to prolong the actions of adrenergic transmitters. It also provokes transmitter release from adrenergic terminals and may be a neurotransmitter in some invertebrate nervous systems.

Tyramine hydrochloride is a biogenic trace amine that is generated via the decarboxylation of the amino acid tyrosine, exhibiting neuromodulatory properties as well as cardiovascular and immunological effects.
