Biological Activity: DHICA (5,6-Dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid) is an eumelanin building block, GPR35 agonist and melanin synthesis intermediate. DHICA activates GPR35, triggering dynamic mass redistribution and β-arrestin translocation. DHICA interacts with DNA and interferes with Fpg activity. DHICA promotes the generation of single-strand breaks in plasmid DNA. DHICA increases the activity and expression levels of SOD and Catalase. DHICA is applicable to research related to skin cancer and colon cancer[1][2][3].
