• Description: 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydronaphthalene-1-carbaldehyde is an organic compound that contains a nitrogen atom. It is used to treat autoimmune diseases and eye disorders. The compound has been shown to inhibit the production of glutamate in the retina of rats with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), which may be due to its ability to suppress the activation of microglia cells and the release of proinflammatory cytokines. Tetrahydronaphthalene-1-carbaldehyde also inhibits cancer cell growth by binding to estrogen receptors and regulating gene expression. This drug also has anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting cyclooxygenase 2 and lipoxygenase, as well as being a control agent for chronic kidney disease.
