Development of indole-3-propionic acid (OXIGON™) for alzheimer’s disease
The accumulation of amyloid-beta and concomitant oxidative stress are major pathogenic events in Alzheimer's disease. Indole-3-propionic acid (IPA, OXIGON) is a potent anti-oxidant devoid of pro-oxidant activity. IPA has been demonstrated to be an inhibitor of beta-amyloid fibril formation and to be a potent neuroprotectant against a variety of ...

Production of Indole-3-Lactic Acid by Bifidobacterium Strains Isolated fromHuman Infants
Recent studies have shown that metabolites produced by microbes can be considered as mediators of host-microbial interactions. In this study, we examined the production of tryptophan metabolites by Bifidobacterium strains found in the gastrointestinal ...

Synthesis, Characterization and Antibacterial Activity Evaluation of New Indole-Based Derivatives
A new series of N-acyl hydrazones (4a-g) derived from indole-3-propionic acid (IPA) were synthesized. These N-acyl hydrazones were prepared by the reaction of 3-(1H-indol-3-yl) propane hydrazide and aldehyde in the existence of glacial acetic acid as a ...

Indole-3-Propionic Acid, a Tryptophan-Derived Bacterial Metabolite, Reduces Weight Gain in Rats [PDF]
Recent evidence suggests that tryptophan, an essential amino acid, may exert biological effects by means of tryptophan-derived gut bacteria products. We evaluated the potential contribution of tryptophan-derived bacterial metabolites to body weight gain.

Response of pine hypocotyl sections to growth regulators and related substances
Growth response of Pinus silvestris hypocotyl sections to some synthetic growth regulators and related substances was studied. Elongation of hypocotyl sections was stimulated by naphtaleneacetic acid, indole-3-acetic acid, in-dole-3-propionic acid ...

Gut microbiota-derived indole-3-propionic acid alleviates diabetic kidney disease through its mitochondrial protective effect via reducing ubiquitination mediated-degradation of SIRT1. [PDF]
Graphical abstract The proposed model for the beneficial effects of indole-3-propionic acid (IPA) on diabetic kidney disease (DKD) involves the mitigation of mitochondrial dysfunction in glomerular endothelial cells (GECs) through the following mechanism:

Evaluation of Sample Recovery of Odorous VOCs and Semi‐VOCs From Odor Bags, Sampling Canisters, Tenax TA Sorbent Tubes, and SPME [PDF]
Odor samples collected in field research are complex mixtures of hundreds if not thousands of compounds. Research is needed to know how best to sample and analyze these compounds.
