Specifications
Target Information
5-Hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) is the main metabolite of serotonin. 5-Hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), the primary metabolite of serotonin (5-HT), plays a crucial role in chemical analysis of urine samples to determine serotonin levels in the body. Clinically, it is most frequently tested for the diagnosis of carcinoid tumors arising from the enterochromaffin (Kultschitzsky) cells of the small intestine, which release substantial amounts of serotonin. Research has shown that bovine aortic endothelial cells maintained in tissue culture are capable of transporting serotonin with subsequent production of 5-HIAA.
