N-Caffeoyl serotonin
N-Caffeoyl serotonin is a COX-2 inhibitor, with IC50 and Kᵢ values of 42.5 μM and 65.5 μM against COX-2, respectively. N-Caffeoyl serotonin exhibits weak inhibitory activity against BACE1, with an IC50 > 400 μM. N-Caffeoyl serotonin has free radical scavenging activity. N-Caffeoyl serotonin can be used in the research of allergic diseases and Alzheimer's disease.
