3-iodothyronamine (T1AM) is an endogenous thyronamine. T1AM is a high-affinity ligand for the trace amine-associated receptor TAAR1 (TAR1, TA1), a G protein-coupled receptor.[1][2] When injected into rodents, T1AM causes a rapid drop in body temperature and alterations in blood pressure and heart rate.[3] T1AM may be part of a signaling pathway to modulate cardiac function as the compound can induce negative inotropic effects and decrease cardiac output.[4] [edit] See also [edit] External links [edit] References - ^ Scanlan T, Suchland K, Hart M, Chiellini G, Huang Y, Kruzich P, Frascarelli S, Crossley D, Bunzow J, Ronca-Testoni S, Lin E, Hatton D, Zucchi R, Grandy D (2004).
