Bufotenin(CAT: I023792) is a naturally occurring tryptamine derivative and a potent serotonin receptor agonist, particularly at 5-HT2A and 5-HT1A receptors. Structurally similar to serotonin, it exhibits psychoactive properties and plays a role in modulating neurotransmission. Bufotenin is frequently studied in neuropharmacology for its effects on serotonin-mediated pathways, including perception, cognition, and mood regulation. Its potential to influence central nervous system activity makes it a valuable compound for research into neurological disorders, psychiatric conditions, and the development of serotonin-targeting therapeutics. Bufotenin’s high receptor specificity ensures its utility in advancing our understanding of serotoninergic systems.
