What does harminoid mean?

"Harminoid" refers to a class of compounds that are structurally related to harmine, a naturally occurring beta-carboline alkaloid found in plants like Peganum harmala. These compounds often exhibit psychoactive properties and can influence neurotransmitter systems, particularly in relation to serotonin. Harminoid compounds are of interest in both pharmacology and ethnobotany for their potential therapeutic effects.
