Psychotropic compound causing a reduction in serotonin level and in tryptophan hydroxylase activity in the brain. May cause structural damage to serotonenergic neurons.
Other Notes
CAS# 116861-63-3, which was listed previously, is for histidine-copper complex.
The effect of N-ethyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDE) on the central serotonergic system was studied. Within 1 hr after administration of MDE (10 mg/kg), the concentration of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and the activity of tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) had declined significantly in the hippocampus but
N-ethyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDE) is one of a group of substituted amphetamines which have effects on several serotonergic markers such as tissue levels of serotonin and activity of tryptophan hydroxylase. In this study we have compared its effects on the rat brain

3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), or ecstasy, is excreted as unchanged drug, 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA), and free and glucuronidated/sulfated 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymethamphetamine (HMMA), and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyamphetamine (HMA) metabolites. The aim of this paper is to describe the pattern and timeframe of excretion of MDMA and its metabolites

The 3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine (MDMA)-related designer drug 3,4-methylenedioxyethylamphetamine (MDEA, Eve) is a chiral compound that is mainly metabolized by N-deethylation and demethylenation during phase I metabolism. The involvement of several cytochrome P450 (P450) isozymes in these metabolic steps has been demonstrated by
Our group has conducted several Internet investigations into the biobehavioural effects of self-reported recreational use of MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine or Ecstasy) and other psychosocial drugs. Here we report a new study examining the relationship between self-reported Ecstasy use and traces of
