3-Hydroxykynurenine Toxicity on the Rat Striatum In Vivo

open access: yesThe Japanese Journal of Pharmacology, 1996
3-Hydroxykynurenine (3-HK) is a tryptophan metabolite whose level in the brain is elevated under several pathological states including Huntington's disease. In the present study, we examined the possible toxicity of 3-HK by injection of this substance into rat brain.

3-Hydroxykynurenine as a substrate/activator for mushroom tyrosinase

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2003
3-Hydroxykynurenine is a tryptophan metabolite with an o-aminophenol structure. It is both a tyrosinase activator and a substrate, reducing the lag phase, stimulating the monophenolase activity, and being oxidized to xanthommatin. In the early stage of monophenol hydroxylation, catechol accumulation takes place, whereas 3-hydroxykynurenine is ...

Oxidation of 3‐hydroxykynurenine. A reexamination

Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry, 1988
AbstractThe oxidation mixture of 3‐hydroxykynurenine (1), treated with aqueous acetic anhydride and, subsequently, with acidic methanol, yields the 1‐hydroxy‐3‐carbomethoxy‐5‐methoxy‐11‐(β‐aspartoyl‐N‐acetyl‐methyl ester)pyrido[3,2‐a]phenoxazine (5), the 1‐hydroxy‐11‐(β‐aspartoyl‐N‐acetyl‐methyl ester)‐5.H‐pyrido[3,2‐a]‐phenoxazin‐5‐one (6), the 1 ...

Cytotoxicity of 3-hydroxykynurenine in a neuronal hybrid cell line

open access: yesBrain Research, 1989
The toxicity of 3-hydroxykynurenine (3HK), an endogenous tryptophan metabolite which is markedly elevated in rat CNS tissue as a result of neonatal vitamin B-6 deficiency, was investigated in a neuronally derived hybrid cell line (N18-RE-105). At concentrations in excess of 100 microM, 3HK was toxic to greater than 85% of cultured cells over the course
