Article Synopsis
- - The study examines how specific skin bacteria, which metabolize tryptophan, produce ligands that activate the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a key player in inflammatory disorders.
- - Out of 18 bacteria tested, 14 were found to metabolize tryptophan, and the metabolites from these bacteria were analyzed using advanced techniques like liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
- - The results reveal a strong connection between skin microbiota, their production of tryptophan metabolites, and the activation of AhR, indicating potential implications for skin health and inflammation.
