Harmalol is an indole alkaloid that belongs to the group of substances consisting of β-carbolines and harmane alkaloids .
Occurrence
It occurs in Ayahuasca , in the stems of Passiflora incarnata and Hippophae rhamnoides , in the roots of Apocynum cannabinum , and in the seeds of the rue ( Peganum harmala ).
Physiological effect
Harmalol is a monoamine oxidase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitor. It also inhibits the cancer-activating enzyme CYP1A1 . It is used in DNA or RNA alkaloid binding studies. Harmalol increased pulse amplitude , maximal aortic flow, and cardiac muscle contraction in anesthetized dogs with normal blood pressure.
