title: 5-Hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde
text: 5-Hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde (5-HIAL), also known as 5-hydroxytryptaldehyde or as serotonin aldehyde, is an inactive metabolite and metabolic intermediate of the monoamine neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT). 5-HIAL is formed from serotonin by oxidative deamination via monoamine oxidase (MAO). MAO-mediated deamination is the primary metabolic pathway of serotonin inactivation. Monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) has about 120-fold higher affinity for serotonin than monoamine oxidase B
