4-Methoxytryptamine (4-MeO-T; developmental code name PAL-548) is a serotonin receptor modulator of the tryptamine and 4-hydroxytryptamine families.[1] It is the O-methyl derivative of 4-hydroxytryptamine (4-HT) and a positional isomer of 5-methoxytryptamine and 6-methoxytryptamine.[1]

Pharmacology

[edit | edit source]

The drug has been found to act as a potent serotonin 5-HT2A receptor full agonist, with an EC50Tooltip half-maximal effective concentration of 9.02 nM and an EmaxTooltip half-maximal effective concentration of 108%.[1] It was inactive as a monoamine releasing agent, including of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine, in rat brain synaptosomes (all EC50 = >10,000 nM), but was a very low-potency serotonin reuptake inhibitor (IC50Tooltip half-maximal effective concentration = 4,114 nM).[1]

History

[edit | edit source]

4-Methoxytryptamine was first described in the scientific literature by at least 1962.[2]
