A Fluorescence-Based Competitive Antibody Binding Assay for Kynurenine, a Potential Biomarker of Kidney Transplant Failure

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
Kynurenine is a tryptophan metabolite linked to several inflammatory processes including transplant failure, a significant challenge in transplant medicine. The detection of small molecules such as kynurenine, however, is often complex and time consuming.

The genetic architecture of plasma kynurenine includes cardiometabolic disease mechanisms associated with the SH2B3 gene

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Inflammation increases the risk of cardiometabolic disease. Delineating specific inflammatory pathways and biomarkers of their activity could identify the mechanistic underpinnings of the increased risk. Plasma levels of kynurenine, a metabolite involved

Involvement of the microbiota-gut-brain axis in chronic restraint stress: disturbances of the kynurenine metabolic pathway in both the gut and brain

open access: yesGut microbes, 2021
Emerging evidence suggests that the gut microbiota may interact with the host brain and play pivotal roles in the pathogenesis of neuropsychiatric disorders. However, the mechanism underlying reciprocal interactions along the microbiota-gut-brain axis in

Kynurenine Pathway in Diabetes Mellitus—Novel Pharmacological Target?

open access: yesCells, 2023
The tryptophan–kynurenine pathway (Trp–KYN) is the major route for tryptophan conversion in the brain and in the periphery. Kynurenines display a wide range of biological actions (which are often contrasting) such as cytotoxic/cytoprotective, oxidant ...

COVID-19 infection alters kynurenine and fatty acid metabolism, correlating with IL-6 levels and renal status.

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2020
Reprogramming of host metabolism supports viral pathogenesis by fueling viral proliferation, by providing, for example, free amino acids and fatty acids as building blocks.

Immune Influencers in Action: Metabolites and Enzymes of the Tryptophan-Kynurenine Metabolic Pathway

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
The tryptophan (TRP)-kynurenine (KYN) metabolic pathway is a main player of TRP metabolism through which more than 95% of TRP is catabolized. The pathway is activated by acute and chronic immune responses leading to a wide range of illnesses including ...

Adipocyte-derived kynurenine promotes obesity and insulin resistance by activating the AhR/STAT3/IL-6 signaling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Aberrant amino acid metabolism is a common event in obesity. Particularly, subjects with obesity are characterized by the excessive plasma kynurenine (Kyn).
