Description
Skatole (3-Methylindole) is a bacterially derived metabolite that acts as an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonist, activating pathways like p38 MAPK to modulate intestinal epithelial function. It is a valuable research tool for studying host-microbiome interactions, gut barrier integrity, and immune signaling in both in vitro and in vivo models.
