No.: HY-N18471CAS No.: 31363-74-3Synonyms: 5,7-DHP5,7-Dihydroxytryptamine (5,7-DHP) is an autofluorescent (λex≈365 nm), selective neurotoxin and a transport substrate for MAO-A and 5-HT. 5,7-Dihydroxytryptamine can specifically target and damage central and peripheral 5-HTergic neurons, while affecting 5-HT-related pathways and neurotransmitter balance. 5,7-Dihydroxytryptamine can be used to establish 5-HTergic neuron injury models for studies on neural development, neurodegenerative diseases, as well as mechanisms related to platelet function and retinal neurons.
