Description and Uses

Indole-3-propionic acid is a bacterial metabolite that has antioxidant and neuroprotective activities. It scavenges ABTS radicals in a cell-free assay when used at concentrations ranging from 50 to 150 μM and decreases hydrogen peroxide-induced malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in rat striatal membranes (IC50 = 180 μM). Indole-3-propionic acid also decreases increases in MDA levels induced by amyloid β (1-42) in PC12 cells. It decreases ischemia-induced increases in cell death of pyramidal neurons and levels of 4-hydroxy nonenal (HNE; ) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in the hippocampal CA1 region in gerbils when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg per day.

Reactant for preparation of:

  • Fluorescent analogues of strigolactones
  • Anti-tumor agents
  • Melanocortin receptors ligands
  • Immunosuppressive agents
  • Iinhibitors of hepatitis C virus
  • Histamine H4 receptor agonists
  • NR2B/NMDA receptor antagonists
  • CB1 antagonist for the treatment of obesity
  • Antibacterial agents
  • Inhibitor of TGF-β receptor binding
Indole-3-propionic acid may be used in the synthesis of oxindole-3-propionic acid via reaction with N-bromosuccinimide in acetic acid followed by treatment with H2/Pd catalyst.
