AFMK Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Melatonin is a neurotransmitter widely distributed in eukaryotes and is closely linked to circadean rhythms in mammals including humans. AFMK is a melatonin metabolite first identified in rat brain. AFMK has antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities in several experimental models. AFMK may also be measured in plasma as an index of melatonin synthesis and metabolism.

Chemical Properties

Light Brown Solid

Uses

A metabolite of melatonin (M215000).

Definition

ChEBI: N-gamma-Acetyl-N-2-Formyl-5-Methoxykynurenamine is an aromatic ketone.

in vivo

AFMK is a potent antioxidant in vivo. AFMK significantly reverses radiation-induced decline in the total antioxidant capacity of plasma in mice[2].

Animal Model:Male C57BL mice 8 wk of age[2]
Dosage:10 mg/kg body weight
Administration:Intraperitoneal injection
Result:Radiation-induced decline in the total antioxidant capacity of plasma was significantly reversed in AFMK pretreated mice.
AFMK-pretreated irradiated groups showed a significantly lower value of comet tail length and % DNA in tail.

IC 50

Human Endogenous Metabolite
