Metabolite List
all metabolites that has the same formula 'C5H9N3'
Histamine (BioCAD00000012128)
Formula: C5H9N3 (Exact Mass: 111.0796)
Histamine is an amine derived by enzymatic decarboxylation of histidine. It is a powerful stimulant of gastric secretion, a constrictor of bronchial smooth muscle, a vasodilator, and also a centrally acting neurotransmitter. Histamine can be found in Photobacterium phosphoreum and Lactobacillus (PMID:17066936). Histamine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 2-arylethylamines. These are primary amines that have the general formula RCCNH2, where R is an organic group. High amounts of histamine have been found in spinach, oats and ryes. Another foods such as green beans, broccoli, and beetroots also contain histamine but in lower concentrations. Histamine has also been detected but not quantified in several different foods, such as groundcherries, carobs, bok choy, biscuits, and longans.
Betazole (BioCAD00000026053)
Formula: C5H9N3 (Exact Mass: 111.0796)
Betazole is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a histamine H2 agonist used clinically to test gastric secretory function. [PubChem]Betazole is a histamine analogue. It produces the same effects as histamine, binding the H2 receptor which is a mediator of gastric acid secretion. This agonist action thereby results in an increase in the volume of gastric acid produced.
