Description

Stability Hygroscopic
Applications 3-Indolepropionic-d2 acid is deuterium labelled 3-Indolepropionic acid (I627170). 3-Indolepropionic acid is a deamination product of Tryptophan (T947200) that protects the hippocampus (studied in gerbils) from ischemic damage and oxidative stress. It’s ability to protect the neurons in this way is attributed to its potent antioxidative effects. 3-Indolepropionic acid is also hypothesized to have protective effects on the thyroid gland.
