Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) market size was valued at US$ 70 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 129 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 9.4% during review period.

5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is an intermediate product generated during tryptophan metabolism and is a direct precursor for the synthesis of serotonin (5-HT) in the body. 5-HTP participates in regulating mood, sleep, appetite, and nervous system function by supplementing serotonin levels. Due to its potential role in alleviating depression, anxiety, insomnia, and appetite control, 5-HTP is widely used in dietary supplements. Its main source is plant extraction, especially the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia seeds. It should be noted that high-dose use may cause side effects such as nausea or gastrointestinal discomfort, and should be taken under professional guidance.

At present, the method of extracting 5-HTP from natural products cannot meet market demand due to high cost and lack of raw materials. Chemical synthesis does not rely on natural products, however, due to the tedious steps and required conditions involved, it is difficult to synthesize 5-HTP economically and effectively. With the development of biotechnology such as bioinformatics, genetics, metabolic engineering, biochemistry, and protein engineering, new strategies have emerged for synthesizing 5-HTP using microorganisms. Microbial synthesis has the advantages of short production cycle, low cost, high yield, and easy large-scale production, and has great application prospects.
