Application
4-Chloro-DL-phenylalanine has been used:
- as tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1) inhibitor to treat kras+ male zebrafish[1]
- to induce insomnia in rat models[2]
- used to treat embryos to examine its effect on serotonin[3]
- for the selection of Enterococcus faecalis transformants with pESentA32 plasmid[4]
- to feed flies to explore serotonin effect[5]
Biochem/physiol Actions
4-Chloro-DL-phenylalanine (PCPA) is an inhibitor of 5-hydroxytrytamine (5-HT) synthesis. It helps to improve the inflammation of lung tissue and remodeling pulmonary artery. PCPA can reduce the expression of tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) and pro-inflammatory factors.[6]
Tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor.
