Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Indolelactic Acid
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126749MetabolicIndolelactic acid (CAS: 1821-52-9) is a tryptophan metabolite found in human plasma, serum, and urine. … Indolelactic acid is also a microbial metabolite; urinary indole-3-lactate is produced by Clostridium sporogenes.Phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan are all metabolized through the reductive pathway
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Vanillic Acid
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126881MetabolicVanillic acid is a phenolic acid found in some forms of vanilla and many other plant extracts. It is a flavouring and scent agent that produces a pleasant, creamy odour. … Vanillic acid selectively and specifically inhibits 5'nucleotidase activity. Vanillic acid is a microbial metabolite found in Amycolatopsis, Delftia, and Pseudomonas.
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of β-Hydroxybutyric acid
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126987MetabolicKetone synthesis in the liver produces acetoacetate and beta-hydroxybutyrate from two acetyl CoA molecules. Acetyl-CoA is a metabolite derived from glucose, fatty acid, and amino acid catabolism. … This acid is metabolized by 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (catalyzes the oxidation of 3-hydroxybutyrate to form acetoacetate, using NAD+ as an electron acceptor).
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of 2-Aminobenzoic acid
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126869DiseaseKynureninase catalyzes the cleavage of L-kynurenine (L-Kyn) and L-3-hydroxykynurenine (L-3OHKyn) into anthranilic acid (AA) (which is also known as 2-Aminobenzoic acid) and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3 … In particular, 2-aminobenzoic acid and formic acid can be biosynthesized from formylanthranilic acid through its interaction with the enzyme kynurenine formamidase.

smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126879Metabolicp-Hydroxyphenylacetic acid can be found in numerous foods such as olives, cocoa beans, oats, and mushrooms. p-Hydroxyphenylacetic acid can be found throughout all human tissues and in all biofluids. … at the 2-position. p-Hydroxyphenylacetic acid is considered to be slightly soluble (in water) and acidic.
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Indole Acetic Acid
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0123235MetabolicIndole acetic acid is shown to cause inflammation and disrupt the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation causing muscle atrophy. … After being transported into gut microbes, tryptophan undergoes a reaction with the enzymes tryptophan monooxygenase and indole-3-acetamide hydrolase to form indole acetic acid.

smpdb.ca/view/SMP0125537Metabolic4-Hydroxyhippuric, also known as 4-hydroxybenzoylglycine or 4-hydroxyhippate acid, is a metabolite of hippuric acid, and a uremic toxin. … Benzoic acid is present in many fruits, such as apricots, prunes, and berries; many vegetables such as mushrooms (fungus), snap peas, cucumbers, and radishes; spices such as cinnamon, cloves, and allspice
Fatty Acid Metabolism
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000051MetabolicWhen ATP is needed, ATP may be generated by increasing fatty acid metabolism. Fatty acid metabolism is essentially the reverse reaction of fatty acid synthesis. … Fatty acid metabolism is also known as beta-oxidation. During metabolism, acetyl CoA is produced that can then enter the citric acid cycle.
