Biochemically derived from tryptophan, serotonin is primarily found in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, platelets, and in the central nervous system (CNS) of animals including humans. It is a well-known contributor to feelings of well-being; therefore it is also known as a happiness hormone despite not being a hormone. Approximately 80 percent of the human body's total serotonin is located in the enterochromaffin cells in the gut, where it is used to regulate intestinal movements.The remainder is synthesized in serotonergic neurons in the CNS where it has various functions. These include the regulation of mood, appetite, and sleep. Serotonin also has some cognitive functions, including in memory and learning. Modulation of serotonin at synapses is thought to be a major action of several classes of pharmacological antidepressants.;Description:Rabbit Anti-5-HydroxyIndole Polyclonal Antibody;Host Species:Rabbit;Species Reactivity:Human;Isotype:IgG;Application:IEP, ELISA.;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C.
