(1R,3S)-1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline-3-carboxylic acid (MTCA) is a β-carboline indole alkaloid naturally occurring in plants, foods, insects, and endogenously in mammals and humans. It exerts antioxidant and antithrombotic properties. MTCA is thought to be a possible causative substance of eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome associated with ingestion of L-tryptophan.
