Efectos psicoactivos de la ingesta de Aphanizomenon flos-aquae como fuente de feniletilamina

Abstract

Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) es una cianobacteria que pertenece al género Aphanizomenon sp., género muy extendido por todos los sistemas de agua dulce del mundo. Pero por lo que realmente destaca esta cianobacteria en concreto, es por la presencia de fitonutrientes biológicamente activos como son la feniletilamina (PEA), ficocianina (C-PC) y polisacáridos potenciadores del sistema inmunitario. Concretamente, esta revisión se centra en la cantidad de PEA que posee esta cianobacteria. Esta amina aromática es un estimulante natural producido por nuestro propio cerebro. Se trata, por tanto, de una molécula endógena considerada un neuromodulador general cuya vida media es corta ya que, es rápidamente degradada por la monoaminooxidasa B (MAO-B), por lo que su acción en nuestro cerebro se encuentra muy acotada. Los estudios analizados muestran que AFA es rica en PEA y además posee compuestos, como la C-PC y micosporinas (MAAs), que inhiben la MAO-B y evitan la eliminación de PEA, dando lugar al aumento de los niveles de la misma en el cerebro y de su tiempo de acción. La presente revisión se centra en los efectos psicoactivos de la cianobacteria mencionada, así como en los posibles beneficios y perjuicios que causa consumirla, además de mencionar sus propiedades nutricionales y terapéuticas.
