Physicochemical Characterization of Kynurenine Pathway Metabolites
The kynurenine pathway is a significant metabolic route involved in the catabolism of tryptophan, producing various bioactive metabolites with crucial roles as antioxidants in immune regulation and neurobiology.

NMDA antagonists as Parkinson's disease therapy: disseminating the evidence [PDF]
Förskolans fysiska inomhusmiljö ska vara stimulerande och locka barnen till lek och lärande, och det kräver av förskollärare att de ständigt reflekterar över och bearbetar den som en del av sitt arbete.

We previously demonstrated that kynurenine pathway (KP) dysregulation associates with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and its symptoms. Here, we profiled 16 KP-related markers in a second, independent cohort; plasma: n = 202 (116 PD (“OFF”), 86 controls); CSF ...

Xanthurenic acid and its rôle in the trytophane metabolism of pyroxidine-deficient rats [PDF]
In a previous publication (1) the isolation of a green pigment from the urine of pyridoxine-deficient rats was described. The green pigment was shown to be the product of a reaction between ferric ammonium sulfate or other ferric salts and a compound ...

Three classes of ligands each bind to distinct sites on the orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR84 [PDF]
Medium chain fatty acids can activate the pro-inflammatory receptor GPR84 but so also can molecules related to 3,3′-diindolylmethane. 3,3′-Diindolylmethane and decanoic acid acted as strong positive allosteric modulators of the function of each other and

Lactobacillus regulate muscle fiber type conversion in Chinese native pigs via tryptophan metabolism
Identifying potential gut microbes and metabolites that can influence muscle fiber type is gaining interest in meat quality research. In this study, muscle fiber characteristics, muscle metabolite profiles, and gut microbiota and metabolome were compared

Simultaneous release of glutamate and acetylcholine from single magnocellular "cholinergic" basal forebrain neurons [PDF]
Basal forebrain (BF) neurons provide the principal cholinergic drive to the hippocampus and cortex. Their degeneration is associated with the cognitive defects of Alzheimer's disease. Immunohistochemical studies suggest that some of these neurons contain

Increased indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase activity is associated with poor clinical outcome in adults hospitalized with influenza in the INSIGHT FLU003Plus study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) mediated tryptophan (TRP) depletion has antimicrobial and immuno-regulatory effects. Increased kynurenine (KYN)-to-TRP (KT) ratios, reflecting increased IDO activity, have been associated with poorer ...
