tryptamine [trip´tah-mēn] a chemical product of the decarboxylation of tryptophan, causing vasoconstriction by the release of norepinephrine at postganglionic nerve endings.trypt·a·mine (trip'tă-mēn, -min), A decarboxylation product of l-tryptophan that occurs in plants and certain foods (for example, cheese). It raises the blood pressure through vasoconstrictor action, by the release of norepinephrine at postganglionic sympathetic nerve endings, and is believed to be one of the agents responsible for hypertensive episodes after therapy with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (for example, pargyline hydrochloride).tryptamine (trĭp′tə-mēn′)n.1.
