Uremic toxicity of indoxyl sulfate.

Nagoya journal of medical science, 2010
Indoxyl sulfate, a uremic toxin, is accumulated in the serum of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. A part of the dietary protein-derived tryptophan is metabolized into indole by tryptophanase in intestinal bacteria. Indole is absorbed into the blood from the intestine, and is metabolized to indoxyl sulfate in the liver.
