在这篇简短的文章中，将简要回顾将大脑中5-羟色胺（5-HT）的合成与其氨基酸前体色氨酸（TRP）的可用性联系起来的信息。此外，还将讨论影响脑TRP摄取的生理因素，包括食物摄取、饥饿、应激和运动。由于现有的数据连接这些生理现象，脑TRP和5 HT合成在许多情况下是不完整的，建议将有关未来的研究方向。希望进一步的调查将解决这个复杂领域中一些令人困惑的问题。
In this short article, information will be briefly reviewed that ties serotonin (5HT) synthesis in brain to the availability of its amino acid precursor, tryptophan (TRP). In addition, the physiologic factors influencing brain TRP uptake will also be discussed, which include food ingestion, starvation, stress and exercise. Since available data linking these physiologic phenomenon to brain TRP and 5HT synthesis are in many cases incomplete, suggestions will be made concerning future research directions. The hope is that further investigation will resolve some of the perplexing issues in this complex area.
