Product Information

• Name: L-Tryptophan benzyl ester
• Synonyms: L-tryptophan, phenylmethyl ester

Description

L-Tryptophan benzyl ester is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor that is used as a deodorant. It inhibits the action of ACE, which leads to the formation of angiotensin II and a decrease in blood pressure. L-Tryptophan benzyl ester also prevents the formation of metastases and reduces the risk of cancer cells spreading to other parts of the body. This drug also has solvating properties, which may lead to its ability to inhibit enzymes such as catalase and isomerase. L-Tryptophan benzyl ester has been shown to have antithrombotic effects by inhibiting platelet aggregation and reducing blood clotting time. The geometric isomers of this compound have different plasma concentrations than the optical isomers because they are not metabolised in the same way in humans.
