Abstract

7,N,N-Trimethyltryptamine (TMT) was synthesized and evaluated as an inhibitor of synaptosomal biogenic amine uptake in rat forebrain homogenates. In addition to inhibiting ³H-serotonin uptake (IC₅₀=0.4 μm). TMT appears to be quite selective and is much less potent in blocking either ³H-norepinephrine or ³H-dopamine uptake (IC₅₀=180 μM and 61 μM, respectively).
