Effects of kynurenic acid on cardiovascular system
Kynurenic Acid (KYNA) is an endogenous metabolite of tryptophan (TRP) which is produced by aminotransferase KAT I and KAT II in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues. Moreover it has been shown that it can be supplied with food.

Probiotics-enhanced kynurenic acid mitigates cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in mice [PDF]
Summary: Cisplatin chemotherapy is limited by dose-dependent nephrotoxicity. This study investigates the nephroprotective potential of kynurenic acid (KYNA), a tryptophan metabolite, against cisplatin-induced renal injury.

Reactions of kynurenic acid with hypobromous acid and hypochlorous acid
Kynurenic acid, a tryptophan metabolite, acts as antagonist or agonist of several receptors. Hypobromous acid (HOBr) and hypochlorous acid (HOCl) are generated by eosinophils and neutrophils. At inflammation sites, kynurenic acid may encounter HOBr and HOCl to generate products.
