Chemical Information
FooDB NameAnthranilic acid
Description2-Aminobenzoic acid, also known as anthranilate or anthranilic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aminobenzoic acids. These are benzoic acids containing an amine group attached to the benzene moiety. An aminobenzoic acid that is benzoic acid having a single amino substituent located at position 2. 2-Aminobenzoic acid is a moderately basic compound (based on its pKa). 2-Aminobenzoic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, 2-aminobenzoic acid participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 2-aminobenzoic acid and formic acid can be biosynthesized from formylanthranilic acid through the action of the enzyme kynurenine formamidase. In addition, 2-aminobenzoic acid and L-alanine can be biosynthesized from L-kynurenine through its interaction with the enzyme kynureninase. In humans, 2-aminobenzoic acid is involved in tryptophan metabolism. Outside of the human body, 2-Aminobenzoic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as mexican groundcherries, caraway, cinnamons, sugar apples, and strawberry guava. This could make 2-aminobenzoic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 2-Aminobenzoic acid is a potentially toxic compound.

Anti-arthritic52217 An agent that reduces joint inflammation and alleviates symptoms of arthritis, commonly used in managing rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and other inflammatory joint disorders, to improve mobility and quality of life.DUKE
Anti feedantA substance that inhibits normal feeding behavior, found in certain plants, deterring insects and animals from consuming them. Its therapeutic applications include pest control, while key medical uses involve managing insect-borne diseases and reducing crop damage.DUKE
Anti-inflammatory35472 An agent that reduces inflammation, playing a biological role in suppressing immune responses and therapeutic applications in managing pain, swelling, and redness. Key medical uses include treating arthritis, allergies, and autoimmune disorders, as well as relieving symptoms of conditions such as asthma and dermatitis.DUKE
Insulinase inhibitor23924 An agent that blocks the activity of insulinase, an enzyme that breaks down insulin, thereby increasing insulin levels and activity. It has therapeutic applications in managing diabetes and improving glucose metabolism, with key medical uses in treating type 1 and 2 diabetes.DUKE
InsulinotonicAn agent that enhances insulin secretion, improving glucose uptake and utilization. It plays a biological role in regulating blood sugar levels. Therapeutically, insulinotonic agents are used to manage type 2 diabetes, increasing insulin sensitivity and reducing glucose production in the liver, thereby lowering blood glucose levels.DUKE
Pesticide25944 An agent that kills or repels pests, playing a biological role in controlling insect, weed, and fungal populations. Therapeutically, pesticides have limited applications, but some are used to treat ectoparasitic infestations, such as lice and scabies. Key medical uses include topical treatments for head lice and scabies, highlighting their role in managing parasitic infections.DUKE
