5-hydroxytryptophan elevates serum melatonin.

M A Namboodiri, D Sugden, D C Klein, I N Mefford.   

Abstract

Daytime administration of 5-hydroxytryptophan to sheep elevated serum melatonin more than sevenfold within 2 hours. This suggests that administration of 5-hydroxytryptophan could be used as the basis of a clinical test of pineal function and that melatonin might mediate some clinical effects of 5-hydroxytryptophan.
