Indole-3-pyruvic acid (Standard)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Indole-3-pyruvic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Indole-3-pyruvic acid (HY-W028393). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Indole-3-pyruvic acid is an orally active ketone analog of tryptophan, and is an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonist. Indole-3-pyruvic acid inhibits p38/MAPK phosphorylation, regulates the tryptophan metabolic pathway, and also possesses protective activities against skin photodamage, as well as anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiety bioactivities in the gut. Indole-3-pyruvic acid can downregulate the expression of IL-1β, IL-6, Cox-2, and Bax to alleviate UVB-induced keratinocyte toxicity. Indole-3-pyruvic acid can activate AHR to promote Tr1 cell differentiation, increase IL-10, and inhibit Th1 cytokine production. Indole-3-pyruvic acid can alter the levels of kynurenine metabolites in the brain, mediating central nervous system-related effects. Indole-3-pyruvic acid can be used in research on skin lesions, colitis, and anxiety.
