General description
N-Acetylserotonin (NAS)/normelatonin acts as a precursor of melatonin in the tryptophan metabolic pathway.
Application
N-Acetyl-5-hydroxytryptamine has been used to treat neuron cells and to analyze its effects on Krüppel-like factor 15 (KLF15) expression.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Immediate precursor of melatonin. It is formed from serotonin and acetyl-CoA in a reaction catalyzed by serotonin N-acetyl transferase, the rate-limiting enzyme in melatonin biosynthesis. This indoleamine is a weak agonist at melatonin receptors, and has moderate effects on G-protein stimulation and inhibition of cAMP accumulation.
N-acetyl-serotonin (NAS/normelatonin) can act as a shelter to neurons due to its protecting ability against oxidative challenges. It can also repress the actions of the transcription factor NF-kappaB. NAS possesses antioxidant and antiaging actions. It has protective action against β-amyloid induced neurotoxicity. It helps to maintain the optimal fluidity of the biological membranes.

N-Acetylserotonin (NAS) is a naturally occurring chemical intermediate in biosynthesis of melatonin. Previous studies have shown that NAS has different brain distribution patterns from those of serotonin and melatonin, suggesting that NAS might have functions other than as a precursor
