The chemical reactions and pathways involving indolalkylamines, indole or indole derivatives containing a primary, secondary, or tertiary amine group. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine). The chemical reactions and pathways involving any hormone, naturally occurring substances secreted by specialized cells that affects the metabolism or behavior of other cells possessing functional receptors for the hormone, as carried out by individual cells. The chemical reactions and pathways involving compounds derived from indole (2,3-benzopyrrole). The chemical reactions and pathways involving melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine). The chemical reactions and pathways involving any hormone, naturally occurring substances secreted by specialized cells that affects the metabolism or behavior of other cells possessing functional receptors for the hormone. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine). The chemical reactions and pathways by which individual cells transform chemical substances. The chemical reactions and pathways occurring at the level of individual cells involving any of a group of naturally occurring, biologically active amines, such as norepinephrine, histamine, and serotonin, many of which act as neurotransmitters.
