Research progress on the kynurenine pathway in the prevention and treatment of Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterised by progressive death of dopamine (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) and pathological accumulation of α-synuclein fibrils, as well as central nervous system inflammation.

Current Evidence for a Role of the Kynurenine Pathway of Tryptophan Metabolism in Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]
The kynurenine pathway (KP) is the major metabolic pathway of the essential amino acid tryptophan (TRP). Stimulation by inflammatory molecules, such as interferon-γ (IFN-γ), is the trigger for induction of the KP, driving a complex cascade of production ...

Hydrogen sulfide reduces oxidative stress in Huntington’s disease via Nrf2
The pathophysiology of Huntington’s disease involves high levels of the neurotoxin quinolinic acid. Quinolinic acid accumulation results in oxidative stress, which leads to neurotoxicity. However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which quinolinic

The serotonergic and immunological hypothesis of depression proposes that certain types of excessive stress distort the relationship between the activities of the innate immune and central nervous systems, so that the stress caused by an infection, or ...

4‐HBA upregulates NKIRAS2 levels, inhibiting the activation of the NF‐κB pathway and subsequently reducing the levels of neuroinflammatory markers. This modulation helps restore normal mood and behavior in hyperlipidemic conditions, providing a potential therapeutic strategy for managing hyperlipidemia‐associated depression.
