The tryptophan–kynurenine pathway in immunomodulation and cancer metastasis
Introduction The activation of the kynurenine pathway in cancer progression and metastasis through immunomodulatory pathways has drawn attention to the potential for kynurenine pathway inhibition.

Neopterin and Kynurenine in Mesangioproliferative Glomerulonephritis [PDF]
Serum kynurenine and neopterin concentrations were determined in patients with chronic mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis with normal renal function and in patients with chronic renal failure. Significantly increased kynurenine and neopterin levels

A history of suicide attempts among individuals with schizophrenia is associated with tryptophan degradation via the salivary kynurenine pathway [PDF]
Background Tryptophan, an essential precursor metabolite within the kynurenine pathway, has been implicated in the neurobiological mechanisms underlying both schizophrenia and associated suicidality. Despite this link, the lack of validated biomarkers to

Kynurenine induces T cell fat catabolism and has limited suppressive effects in vivo
Background: L-kynurenine is a tryptophan-derived immunosuppressive metabolite and precursor to neurotoxic anthranilate and quinolinate. We evaluated the stereoisomer D-kynurenine as an immunosuppressive therapeutic which is hypothesized to produce less ...
