3-methylhistidine is a histidine derivative that is produced as a by-product of muscle protein breakdown. It is excreted in urine and its levels can be used as a marker of muscle protein breakdown. 3-methylhistidine is synthesized by the enzyme histidine decarboxylase, which is found in muscle tissue. 3-methylhistidine has been shown to have a number of effects, including stimulating the growth of muscle cells, reducing inflammation, and protecting against oxidative stress. It is also being studied for its potential to treat a number of diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease.'
