L-Tryptophan Stimulates Bioactive Metabolite Accumulation and Cell Wall Remodelling in Flax Callus Cultures [PDF]

Molecules
While L-tryptophan is a precursor of plant growth regulators, its effects on secondary metabolism, amino acid profile and cell wall organization in flax callus remain underexplored.

Immunomodulatory, behavioral, and nutritional response of tryptophan application on poultry [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2021
Tryptophan is an essential amino acid for all animals that was discovered through casein hydrolysis. The use of tryptophan as feed additives has been attracting the attention of many nutritionists because it cannot be synthesized enough in an animal's ...

Effect of Varying Levels of Dietary Tryptophan on Aggression and Abnormal Behavior in Growing Pigs

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Body lesions, resulting from tail-biting and ear-biting, can result in decreased health and welfare in pigs. Tryptophan, an indispensable amino acid, is needed to support protein deposition, and the synthesis of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which is ...

Systemic tryptophan homeostasis

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Tryptophan is an essential amino acid, which is not only a building block for protein synthesis, but also a precursor for the biosynthesis of co-enzymes and neuromodulators, such as NAD/NADP(H), kynurenic acid, melatonin and serotonin.

Tryptophan potentiates CD8+ T cells against cancer cells by TRIP12 tryptophanylation and surface PD-1 downregulation

Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2021
Background Tryptophan catabolites suppress immunity. Therefore, blocking tryptophan catabolism with indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitors is pursued as an anticancer strategy.Methods The intracellular level of tryptophan and kynurenine was ...

Disruption of GPR35 Signaling in Bone Marrow-Derived Cells Does Not Influence Vascular Inflammation and Atherosclerosis in Hyperlipidemic Mice

Metabolites, 2021
G-protein-coupled receptor-35 (GPR35) has been identified as a receptor for the tryptophan metabolite kynurenic acid (KynA) and suggested to modulate macrophage polarization in metabolic tissues.

Glycated Tryptophan in the Plasma of Chickens Fed Tryptophan-excess Diets

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2015
When tryptophan is glycated with glucose, it results in forming two types of glycated tryptophan, glucose-tryptophan Amadori product and (1R, 3S)-1-(D- gluco-1,2,3,4,5-pentahydroxypentyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline-3-carboxylic acid (PHP-THβC ...
