Tyramine is a naturally occurring monoamine compound and trace amine derived from the amino acid tyrosine. Tyramine occurs widely in plants and animals, and is metabolized by the enzyme monoamine oxidase. Tyramine is an alpha-adrenergic agonist. Hypertension can occur, from ingestion of tyramine-rich foods in conjunction with monoamine oxidase inhibitors. The possibility that tyramine acts directly as a neurotransmitter was revealed by the discovery of a G protein-coupled receptor with high affinity for tyramine, called TAAR. It exhibits sympathomimetic effects by causing the release of endogenic norepinephrine. It has been used in mydriatic eyedrops. This has been said to reduce the intraocular pressure in rabbits and in some patients with open-angle glaucoma.

Sample Use Guides

1.25 ug, 4.75 ug, 12.5 ug, 47.5 ug, 125 ug, and 475 ug twice weekly with a minimum of 48 h between doses. The six doses were given in ascending order.
Route of Administration: Topical
In rat cardiomyocytes, 0.3 mM tyramine activated 2-deoxyglucose uptake to around 40% of the maximal insulin effect and benzylamine had no effect. Concentration-dependent studies showed that the EC50 of tyramine in activating hexose uptake was 10 uM in cardiomyocytes, whereas in the presence of vanadate, the EC50 of tyramine was 117 uM in adipocytes.
