amitriptyline
Amitriptyline, formerly sold under the brand name Elavil among others, is a tricyclic antidepressant primarily used to treat major depressive disorder, and a variety of pain syndromes such as neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, migraine and tension headaches. Due to the frequency and prominence of side effects, amitriptyline is generally considered a second-line therapy for these indications.

N-acetylserotonin
'''N-Acetylserotonin (NAS), also known as normelatonin''', is a naturally occurring chemical intermediate in the endogenous production of melatonin from serotonin. It also has biological activity in its own right, including acting as a melatonin receptor agonist, an agonist of the TrkB, and having antioxidant effects.
diosmetin
Diosmetin, also known as 5,7,3′-trihydroxy-4′-methoxyflavone, is an O-methylated flavone, a chemical compound that can be found in the Caucasian vetch.
5,7,8-trihydroxyflavone
Norwogonin, also known as 5,7,8-trihydroxyflavone (5,7,8-THF), is a flavone, a naturally occurring flavonoid-like chemical compound which is found in Scutellaria baicalensis (Baikal skullcap). It has been found to act as an agonist of the TrkB, the main signaling receptor of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and appears to possess roughly the same activity in this regard to that of the closely related but more well-known tropoflavin (7,8-DHF).
NTF3
Neurotrophin-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NTF3 gene.
