Notes: Lactoyl phenylalanine is a secondary metabolite.{55810} It is formed from lactate and phenylalanine by cytosolic non-specific dipeptidase (CNDP2). Lactoyl phenylalanine (50 mg/kg per day) decreases food intake, body weight, and adiposity, as well as improves glucose homeostasis in a mouse model of high-fat diet-induced obesity. Plasma levels of lactoyl phenylalanine are increased following exercise in mice.
