Fenclonine, also known aspara-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA), acts as a selective and irreversible inhibitor oftryptophan hydroxylase, which is a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis ofserotonin.[2]

It has been used experimentally to treatcarcinoid syndrome, but the side effects, mostly hypersensitivity reactions and psychiatric disturbances, have prevented development for this use.[3]

The effects of serotonin depletion from fenclonine are so drastic that serotonin cannot even be detectedimmunohistochemically within the first day after administration of a control dose. Tryptophan hydroxylase activity can be detected neither in cell bodies or nerve terminals. After one week 10% of control values (the baseline extrapolated for the study) had replenished in theraphe nucleus, and after two weeks from initial treatment as much was again detected in the hypothalamus region.AromaticL-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) levels were at no time affected.[4]

It is used in scientific research in humans[5] and animals[2] to investigate the effects of serotonin depletion.
