| ==Pharmacology== | |||
| In small doses its activity is reported to be stimulant-like, while in higher doses more opiate-like. These effects agree with the profile of mitragynine's actions developed by study of its action on the brain. It has been shown to be adrenergic (like some related alkaloids from ]) at lower doses, while at higher doses mitragynine acts on the mu- and delta-opiate receptors. The mu-opiate receptors are responsible for the enjoyable effects of the opiates, analgesia, and physical dependence. Its potential for treating drug addiction, perhaps in combination with ], is being investigated{{Who|date=August 2010}}. It is orally active. | |||
| Mitragynine itself acts primarily via μ-opioid receptors, although its oxidation product ], which is likely to be a major component of kratom that has been aged or stored for extended periods, acts as a fairly selective ] ] with little affinity for μ or κ receptors.<ref name="pmid11960505">{{cite journal | author = Takayama H, Ishikawa H, Kurihara M, Kitajima M, Aimi N, Ponglux D, Koyama F, Matsumoto K, Moriyama T, Yamamoto LT, Watanabe K, Murayama T, Horie S | title = Studies on the synthesis and opioid agonistic activities of mitragynine-related indole alkaloids: discovery of opioid agonists structurally different from other opioid ligands | journal = J.

| ==Discovery== | |||
| Mitragynine was isolated in 1907 by D. Hooper, a process repeated in 1921 by E. Field who gave the alkaloid its name. Its structure was first fully determined in 1964 by D. Zacharias, R. Rosenstein and E. Jeffrey. | |||
| ==Structure== | |||
| It is structurally related to both the ] ]s and, more distantly, ]. Chemically, mitragynine is 9-methoxy-corynantheidine. | |||
| ==Dose== | |||
| Dry kratom leaf contains roughly 0.25% mitragynine. A typical dose ranges from 15 mg to 65 mg. | |||
| ==Synthesis== | |||
| The first ] of mitragynine was reported by Takayama et al. in 1995.<ref name="Takayama_1995">{{cite journal | author = Takayama H.; Maeda M.; Ohbayashi S.; Kitajima M.; Sakai S.-i.; Aimi N. | title = The First Total Synthesis of (-)-Mitragynine, An Analgesic Indole Alkaloid in Mitragyna speciosa | journal = Tetrahedron Letters | volume = 36 | issue = 51 | year = 1995 | pages = 9337–9340 | doi = 10.1016/0040-4039(95)02022-H }}</ref> | |||
| ==Chemical properties== | |||
| Physically the ] is a white, amorphous powder. It is soluble in alcohol, chloroform and acetic acid. | |||
