Bacterial species, such as Pseudomonas putida , Microbacterium testaceum , Pantoea agglomerans , Bacillus spp., Rhizobium strains, and Azospirillum brasilense have been reported to produce auxins such as indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), 4-chloroindole-3-acetic acid, indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), indole-3-propionic acid (IPA) ( -1 of tryptophan concentration, and they detected higher auxin production (41.4 and 24.8 g mL -1 ) with 500 g mL -1 tryptophan
Unlike hGH, which carries broader systemic effects and risks associated with elevated IGF-1 levels, AOD9604 appears to selectively promote fat metabolism without triggering growth-related side effects, suggesting its potential as a safer therapeutic candidate for obesity and metabolic disorders [2]
