Metabolism / Metabolites
Indole undergoes pyrrole ring cleavage to produce N-formyl-o-aminobenzoic acid, an unstable compound that decomposes into o-aminobenzoic acid and formic acid. Indole is first hydroxylated to produce indolephenol, then indigo, which may undergo a hydrolytic ring-opening reaction. ...Indole is metabolized in rats to produce indolephenol, oxyindole, 5-hydroxyoxyindole, and indigo... 2,2-bis(3-indole)indolephenol is produced in horseradish. Deoxyviolin is produced in Chromobacterium. Cis-6,7-dihydroxy-6,7-dihydroxyindole may be present in Pseudomonas. /Excerpt from Table/ 3,3'-Diindolylacetic acid is produced in peas. o-Formamidobenzaldehyde is produced in scopolamine. 3-Hydroxyindole is produced in cocci. /Excerpt from table/ For more complete data on the metabolism/metabolites of indole (10 in total), please visit the HSDB record page. Known human metabolites of indole include 6-hydroxyindole, indophenol, and indoleone. |

| Additional Infomation |
1H-Indole is an indole compound and a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. It is a metabolite of Escherichia coli and a tautomer of 3H-indole. Indole is a metabolite found or produced in Escherichia coli (K12 strain, MG1655 strain). Indole has also been reported in Tetrastigma hemsleyanum, Daphne odora, and other organisms with relevant data. Mechanism of Action: This study investigated the effects of heterocyclic compounds on hepatic enzymes that metabolize exogenous substances in mice. Female CD-1 mice were administered 5 μmol/kg coumarin, trimethylene oxide (TMO), or trimethylene sulfide (TMS) by gavage for 6 days; or daily by gavage of benzofuran, indole, or indole-3-methanol (IC) for 10 days. Animals were sacrificed 1 or 2 days after the last administration; livers were removed and the activities of epoxide hydrolase, glutathione S-transferase (GST), reduced NADH-quinone reductase (NADH/QR), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), glutathione reductase (GSSG-red), uridine diphosphate glucose dehydrogenase (UDPGDH), aniline hydroxylase, 7-ethoxycoumarin deethylase (ECOD), cytochrome c reductase (cyt-c-red), and cytochrome P450 were measured. Except for indole, all compounds significantly enhanced epoxide hydrolase activity. Except for TMO and TMS, all compounds increased GST activity. NADH/QR activity was increased only by coumarin and benzofuran. Indole only enhanced the activities of glutathione S-transferase (GST), uridine diphosphate glucose dehydrogenase (UDPGDH), and cytochrome c reductase. IC enhanced the activities of GST, UDPGDH, cytochrome c reductase, epoxide hydrolase, and cytochrome P450 and its associated monooxygenases. The reactions of benzofuran and coumarin were more diverse. Both compounds enhanced the activities of epoxide hydrolase, GST, and NADH/QR. Benzofuran decreased cytochrome P450 levels and increased cyclooxygenase (ECOD) activity.

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (23.47 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 27.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (23.47 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 27.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
