Core Tip Microbiota-derived tryptophan metabolites contribute to intestinal immune homeostasis, but the immunoregulatory role of trans-3-indoleacrylic acid (IDA) in ulcerative colitis (UC) remains unclear. This study demonstrates that IDA alleviates dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis by suppressing pro-inflammatory M1 macrophage polarization through activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR)-CYP1A1 pathway. IDA treatment is also associated with alterations in gut microbiota composition and short-chain fatty acid profiles. These findings identify the IDA-AHR-macrophage axis as a potential therapeutic target for UC.
