[1.2] - I3C is converted in the stomach by acid-mediated condensation into various byproducts, including high affinity #AHR ligands DIM and #Indole[3,2-b] carbazole (ICZ) - The main class of dietary #AHR ligands is indoles, including #Indole-3-acetonitrile, #Indole-3-carbinole (I3C), 3,3’-diindolylmethane (DIM) and Indolo(3,4)bicarbazole, which are found mainly in cruciferous vegetables like #Broccoli or Brussel sproutsReferences Notes[ ]
