Effects of tranylcypromine and pargyline on brain tryptamine
Experientia
|March 15, 1977
Abstract:
Tranylcypromine produces behavioral excitation while pargyline produces depression. Tranylcypromine increased brain tryptophan which led to an accumulation of tryptamine. The levels of tryptamine after tranylcypromine were found to be 3 times those found after pargyline.
