产品描述

5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid (5-MIAA) is a methoxyindole that is synthesized in rat pineal gland, retina, and harderian gland.1 Following conversion to a peroxyl radical by horseradish peroxidase (HRP), 5-MIAA increases the rate of formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in liposomes and is cytotoxic to V79 hamster cells.2,3 In vivo, 5-MIAA (100 and 200 μg/animal) prolongs the estrous cycle and increases diestrous smears, uterine weight, the number of uterine follicles, and plasma levels of 17β-estradiol in female rats.1

Effect of light on 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid in the rat

J Neural Transm (Vienna) 2001;108(5):503-11.PMID:11459072DOI:10.1007/s007020170052.

This study aims to determine the effects of light on the levels of 5-MIAA to provide further information on this indoleamine, using a sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay (RIA) for immunoreactive 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid (5-MIAA) developed in our laboratories using a specific antibody and tritiated label. Significant differences were found in the immunoreactive 5-MIAA levels between mid-light and mid-dark pineal glands in rats adapted to 12/12 hrs light/dark and in constant darkness. Under constant light, the circadian rhythm was abolished. The rat serum displayed no diurnal variations in 5-MIAA levels under aux photic conditions. The persistence of rhythms found in constant darkness but abolished in constant light suggests that the pineal 5-MIAA is endogenous and uses light as an environmental cue. In addition to melatonin, 5-MIAA could possibly be another pineal photoperiodic signal in animals.

Identification and quantification of 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid in human urine

Anal Biochem 1985 Jan;144(1):86-93.PMID:2580458DOI:10.1016/0003-2697(85)90087-9.

A putative pineal metabolite, 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid, was quantified in human urine by a gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric method. Excretion of 4.77 +/- 2.25 microgram/day (mean +/- SD) was consistent from each of three normal subjects over 2-4 weeks. Excretion did not vary with regard to menstrual cycle. The daily pattern of excretion bore no relationship to that of 6-hydroxymelatonin, the major metabolite of melatonin, indicating that the major portion of urinary 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid does not derive from melatonin.

Demonstration of antifungal and anti-human immunodeficiency virus reverse transcriptase activities of 6-methoxy-2-benzoxazolinone and antibacterial activity of the pineal indole 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid

Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2002 Jun;132(2):261-8.PMID:12106902DOI:10.1016/s1532-0456(02)00071-6.

6-methoxy-2-benzoxazolinone (6-MBOA), a naturally occurring progonadal compound present in grasses with structural resemblance to melatonin, was tested for antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum, Rhizoctonia solani and Coprinus comatus. A variety of pineal products was also examined for the sake of comparison, including 5-methoxytryptamine, melatonin, 5-methoxytryptophol, 5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid and 5-hydroxytryptophol. The assay for antifungal activity was carried out in Petri plates containing potato dextrose agar. It was found that 6-MBOA most potently inhibited the growth of C. comatus, R. solani and F. oxysporum. When 6-MBOA and pineal indoles were tested for antibacterial activity against the bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens, 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid was found to be the most potent. 6-MBOA most potently inhibited human immunodeficiency virus-1 reverse transcriptase.

The pineal gland of the mole (Talpa europaea L.). VII. Activity of hydroxyindole-O-methyltransferase (HIOMT) in the formation of 5-methoxytryptophan, 5-methoxytryptamine, 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid, 5-methoxytryptophol and melantonin in the eyes and the pineal gland

J Neural Transm 1981;51(3-4):271-82.PMID:6169801DOI:10.1007/BF01248958.

Using a method in which no substrate is added to the incubation medium, the capacity of HIOMT to synthesize 5-methoxytryptophan, 5-methoxytryptamine, 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid, 5-methoxytryptophol and melatonin has been determined in the pineal and the eyes of the mole, a mammal having an atrophied visual system. The results demonstrate that the indoleamine metabolism in the retina is similar to the indoleamine metabolism in the pineal. Moreover, in all animals studied both eyes together synthesize 2 to 30 times more of 5-methoxyindoles than the pineal, a result which proves again that the pineal is not the only and not always the most important source of 5-methoxyindoles. With the exception of 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid, the synthesis of which is practically neglectable, the production of all other 5-methoxyindoles in the pineal as well as in the retinae is always larger than that of melatonin. In the pineal, 5-methoxytryptophan, for example, is synthesized in a quantity which is 60 to 170 times larger than that of melatonin, while in the retinae the synthesized amount of 5-methoxytryptophan is even 60 to 1000 times larger than that of melatonin.

Retinal 5-methoxytryptamine and 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid in the rat and quail: diurnal rhythms and interspecies differences

Biochem Biophys Res Commun 1997 Oct 9;239(1):353-6.PMID:9345324DOI:10.1006/bbrc.1997.7475.

Endogenous 5-methoxytryptamine (5MT) and its biosynthetic oxidation product, 5-Methoxyindole-3-acetic acid (5MIAA), were successfully identified and measured in the retina of the rat and quail by gas chromatography/electron-capture negative ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry (GC/EC-NICI-MS). In the rat retina, diurnal rhythms of 5MT and 5MIAA, with high levels at mid-light and opposite to that of melatonin, were observed. In the quail, high levels of retinal 5MT and 5MIAA were found at mid-dark, and in phase to that of melatonin. Biosynthetic pathways for retinal 5MT and 5MIAA in the rat and quail were discussed in relation to the diurnal rhythms observed. Our results indicate that the biosynthesis and physiological functions of retinal 5MT and 5MIAA could be species dependent.
