'''Fenclonine''', also known as '''''para''-chlorophenylalanine''' ('''PCPA'''), acts as a selective and irreversible inhibitor of [[tryptophan hydroxylase]], which is a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of [[serotonin]].<ref name=Jouvet>{{cite journal | vauthors = Jouvet M | title = Sleep and serotonin: an unfinished story | journal = Neuropsychopharmacology | volume = 21 | issue = 2 Suppl | pages = 24S–27S | date = August 1999 | pmid = 10432485 | doi = 10.1016/S0893-133X(99)00009-3 | doi-access = free }}</ref> |

The effects of serotonin depletion from fenclonine are so drastic that serotonin cannot even be detected [[Histology|immunohistochemically]] within the first day after administration of a control dose. Tryptophan hydroxylase activity can be detected neither in cell bodies or nerve terminals. After one week 10% of control values (the baseline extrapolated for the study) had replenished in the [[Raphe nuclei|raphe nucleus]], and after two weeks from initial treatment as much was again detected in the hypothalamus region. [[Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase|Aromatic <small>L</small>-amino acid decarboxylase]] (AADC) levels were at no time affected.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Park DH, Stone DM, Baker H, Kim KS, Joh TH | title = Early induction of rat brain tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) mRNA following parachlorophenylalanine (PCPA) treatment | journal = Brain Research.
