AhR ligand (endogenous)
Molecular Weight:
300.22
Purity:
98% by TLC NMR (Conforms)
Form:
Red solid
CAS Number:
[606-59-7]
Formula:
C14H8N2O6
Application Notes:
A novel endogenous tryptophan metabolite which acts as an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonist1. It drives IL-22 production by stimulating the differentiation of human and mouse T cells producing IL-221. Induces apoptosis in thymocytes2. Activates type 4 metabotropic glutamate receptors3. Counteracts excitotoxic neuronal cell death induced by NMDA in mixed cultures of cortical cells. Displays neuroprotective activity3.
