Hesperidin Plays Neuroprotective Effects Against Quinolinic Acid in Human SH-SY5Y Cells: Focusing on ROS Levels and Cell Cycle Arrest [PDF]
Background and objectives: In some neurodegenerative diseases, an aberrant accumulation of quinolinic acid is frequently associated with the loss of nerve cells and a condition known as neuritis.

An expanding range of targets for kynurenine metabolites of tryptophan [PDF]
The kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism accounts for most of the tryptophan that is not committed to protein synthesis and includes compounds active in the nervous and immune systems.

4-Chlorobenzoic acid–quinoline (1/1) [PDF]
In the title compound, C(7)H(5)ClO(2)·C(9)H(7)N, the 4-chloro-benzoic acid mol-ecule is almost planar, with a dihedral angle of 2.9 (14)° between the carb-oxy group and the benzene ring. In the crystal, the two components are connected by an O-H⋯N hydrogen bond.

The kynurenine pathway and the brain: challenges, controversies and promises [PDF]
Research on the neurobiology of the kynurenine pathway has suffered years of relative obscurity because tryptophan degradation, and its involvement in both physiology and major brain diseases, was viewed almost exclusively through the lens of the well ...

Obesity and cancer: existing and new hypotheses for a causal connection [PDF]
Existing explanations of obesity-associated cancer emphasise direct mutagenic effects of dietary components or hormonal imbalance. Some of these hypotheses are reviewed briefly, but recent evidence suggests a major role for chronic inflammation in cancer

Kynurenine pathway inhibition reduces central nervous system inflammation in a model of human African trypanosomiasis [PDF]
Human African trypanosomiasis, or sleeping sickness, is caused by the protozoan parasites <i>Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense</i> or <i>Trypanosoma brucei gambiense</i>, and is a major cause of systemic and neurological disability ...
