Hazard Information

Chemical Properties

Crystalline

Uses

4-Chloro-DL-phenylalanine has been used:

as tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1) inhibitor to treat kras⁺ male zebrafish
to induce insomnia in rat models
used to treat embryos to examine its effect on serotonin
for the selection of Enterococcus faecalis transformants with pESentA32 plasmid
to feed flies to explore serotonin effect

Uses

4-Chloro-DL-phenylalanine is an irreversible tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor that depletes serotonin in the brain.

Uses

An irreversible tryptophan hydroxylase inhibitor.

Definition

ChEBI:2-amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)propanoic acid is a phenylalanine derivative.

Biological Activity

4-Chloro-DL-phenylalanine (Fenclonine, PCPA, CP-10188) is a selective and irreversible inhibitor of tryptophan hydroxylase, a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of serotonin (5-HYDROXYTRYPTAMINE). 4-Chloro-DL-phenylalanine acts pharmacologically to deplete endogenous levels of serotonin.

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.

in vivo

4-Chloro-DL-phenylalanine(PCPA) markedly attenuates MCT(monocrotaline)-induced pulmonary vascular remodeling and lung inflammation, inhibits the expression of Tph-1 and SERT and suppresses the expression of MMP-2/-9, TIMP-1/-2, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). PCPA inhibits 5-HT by suppressing Tph-1, regulating SERT and the serotonin downstream signaling pathway.
