Ergothionine is a natural amino acid, a thiourea derivative of histidine, containing a sulfur atom in the imidazole ring.This compound is produced in relatively few organisms, particularly actinomycetes, cyanobacteria, and certain fungi.Ergothionine was discovered in 1909 and named after ergot, and its structure was first purified in 1911.
In vitro analysis and in vivo animal models are used in basic research to identify its potential biological properties.
In humans, ergothionine is obtained only through diet and accumulates in red blood cells, bone marrow, liver, kidneys, semen, and eyes.Ergothionine requires a special transporter, ETT, also known as OCTN1(the genetic symbol SLC22A4), to enter cells.ETT has been demonstrated to be expressed in human and animal cell lines and has demonstrated its functional ability to transport ergothionine in vivo.Although the role of ergothionine in vivo is an active research area, the physiological role of ergothionine in human body is still uncertain.
