The Kynurenine Pathway in Obese Middle-Aged Women with Normoglycemia and Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
We examined the relationships of tryptophan (Trp) and the metabolites of the kynurenine pathway (KP) to the occurrence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic risk factors in obese middle-aged women.

Immunometabolic Network Interactions of the Kynurenine Pathway in Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
Dysregulation of the kynurenine pathway has been regarded as a mechanism of tumor immune escape by the enzymatic activity of indoleamine 2, 3 dioxygenase and kynurenine production. However, the immune-modulatory properties of other kynurenine metabolites

Stage-Dependent Changes in Kynurenine Pathway Enzyme Expression Suggest Immune-Related Involvement in Bladder Cancer Progression. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Urol
ABSTRACT L‐tryptophan (Trp) metabolism through the L‐kynurenine (Kyn) pathway contributes to immune escape in neoplasms, including bladder cancer (BC). Indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase‐1 (IDO1) is a key enzyme, and its catabolites—Kyn, 3‐hydroxykynurenine (3HK), and 3‐hydroxyanthranilate (3HAA)—depend on other enzymes and play a crucial role in ...

Detection of 3-hydroxykynurenine in a plant pathogenic fungus [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2003
A redox-active compound has been purified from the barley powdery mildew fungus Blumeria (Erysiphe) graminis f. sp. hordei. A combination of spectrophotometry, MS and NMR has identified it as 3-hydroxykynurenine (3OHKyn). This compound, never previously detected in any fungus or pathogen, is best known for its role in vertebrate cataracts.

Characterization of the 3-HKT gene in important malaria vectors in India, viz: Anopheles culicifacies and Anopheles stephensi (Diptera: Culicidae)

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2008
The 3-hydroxykynurenine transaminase (3-HKT) gene plays a vital role in the development of malaria parasites by participating in the synthesis of xanthurenic acid, which is involved in the exflagellation of microgametocytes in the midgut of malaria ...
