3-Methylindole-induced splenotoxicity: Biochemical mechanisms of cytotoxicity

3-Methylindole (3-MI) is a pneumotoxic metabolite of l-tryptophan that can form in the digestive tracts of humans and ruminants as a result of microbial protein metabolism. Alternatively, human lungs can be directly exposed to 3-MI formed during protein pyrolysis and inhalation of tobacco smoke. 3-M...
