Kynurenic acid and its analogues
Tryptophan serves as a rate-limiting essential amino acid and a distinctive building block of peptides and proteins. Many immune system cells are known to be regulated by tryptophan metabolites. Kynurenic acid, an endogenous byproduct of tryptophan metabolism, functions as a wide-spectrum inhibitor of excitatory amino acid receptors and may serve as a ...

Tryptophan metabolites clearance in hemodialyzed patients
Hemodialysis (HD) and hemodiafiltration (HDF) procedures have limited efficacy regarding removal of selected toxins. Tryptophan (Trp) metabolites formed through the kynurenine (KYN) pathway are known to contribute to kidney failure (KF) complications ...
