this diagram shows biosynthesis of bioactive compounds (indole , other derivatives) tryptophan bacteria in gut. indole produced tryptophan bacteria express tryptophanase. clostridium sporogenes metabolizes tryptophan indole , subsequently 3-indolepropionic acid (ipa), highly potent neuroprotective antioxidant scavenges hydroxyl radicals. ipa binds pregnane x receptor (pxr) in intestinal cells, thereby facilitating mucosal homeostasis , barrier function. following absorption intestine , distribution brain, ipa confers neuroprotective effect against cerebral ischemia , alzheimer’s disease. lactobacillus species metabolize tryptophan indole-3-aldehyde (i3a) acts on aryl hydrocarbon receptor (ahr) in intestinal immune cells, in turn increasing interleukin-22 (il-22) production. indole triggers secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (glp-1) in intestinal l cells , acts ligand ahr. indole can metabolized liver indoxyl sulfate, compound toxic in high concentrations , associated vascular disease...
