• Beschreibung: Indole-3-propionic acid is a metabolite of tryptophan. It has been shown to have a number of physiological effects, including the induction of apoptosis and inhibition of cell proliferation. Indole-3-propionic acid may be a potential biomarker for bowel disease, as well as an analytical method for detecting hydrogen bonding interactions. This compound has also been shown to have pharmacological effects in the treatment of diseases such as mitochondrial dysfunction, heart failure, and cancer.
