Serotonin Synthesis & Metabolism

Serotonin is stored in cells and metabolized by MAO, influencing CNS, GI, and platelet functions.

血清素合成及代谢

血清素（5-羟色胺）主要存在于三种主要细胞类型中：i）中杻神经系统（CNS）和肠肌间神经丛中的血清素能神经元，ii）胃肠道粘膜中的肠嗜铬细胞，和iii）血小板。血清素的代谢主要通过外部线粒体膜酶单胺氧化酶（MAO）进行，它以两种分子亚型存在，分别称为MAO-A和MAO-B。

Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC)-a naturally occurring isothiocyanate in cruciferous vegetables-has been extensively studied as a chemopreventive agent in several preclinical species and in humans. Pharmacokinetic features of unchanged PEITC are (I) linear and first-order absorption, (II) high protein binding and capacity-limited

β-Phenylethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) has been demonstrated to fight many types of cancers through various molecular pathways. In this study, we focused on its effect on the induction of apoptosis to inhibit cell growth and molecular mechanism in oral cancer. 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(2,4-disulfophenyl)-2-(4
