4-Hydroxyindole is a simple indole derivative. It effectively inhibits Abeta peptide-induced amyloid fibril formation and prevent cell death induced by the peptide in culture. 4-Hydroxyindole was glucuronidated mainly by UGT1A6, with minor activity by UGT1A9. 4-hydroxyindole is used for the synthesis of anti-inflammatory angular pyrrolocoumarins.

4-hydroxyindole (4HI) had the most significant inhibitory effect on Abeta1-40 cytotoxicity. When 25 or 50 uM 4HI was added to a solution containing Abeta1-40, the viability rate of PC12 cells was elevated by ∼25% when compared with that under control conditions.
