3,4-Dimethoxyphenethylamine is also known as Homoveratrylamine, or HVA, is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter. As a catecholamine, HVA is derived from the amino acid tyrosine and serves as a precursor to the hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine. The laboratory studies on Homoveratrylamine have revealed its involvement in cognitive and emotional regulation, reward and motivation, and autonomic functions. The actions of Homoveratrylamine are believed to target multiple receptors in the brain, including dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine receptors. By modulating the activity of these receptors, Homoveratrylamine can induce changes in behavior and cognition.
