Kynuramine, an endogenously occurring amine, is a fluorescent substrate and probe of plasma amine oxidase[1][2].
Kynuramine inhibits both presynaptic and postsynaptic α-adrenoceptors in vitro[2].
Kynuramine has been shown to act as a partial agonist on serotonin receptors in dog cerebral arteries[2].
Kynuramine (20 μg/mL) frequently causes a small contraction of the ileum but failed to alter the twitch response to cholinergic stimulation[2].
Kynuramine (0.064, 0.32, 1.6 or 8 μg; ICV; single does) may serve a physiological role in the modulation of female sexual behavior[3].
Kynuramine (1.25, 2.5 and 5.0 mg/kg; i.v.; single does) increases heart rate and blood pressure in pithed rats[4].
