Tryptophan metabolism in depression [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1970 Psychiatric patients suffering from endogenous depression and a control group without endogenous depression were given oral loads of L-tryptophan and urinary excretion determined of the tryptophan metabolites on the pyrrolase pathway: kynurenine, 3-hydroxykynurenine, and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid.

Tryptophan Metabolism in Rabbits
, 2003 Enzyme activities involved in tryptophan metabolism along the kynurenine pathway were studied in male New Zealand white rabbits. Activities are expressed both as specific activity and per g of fresh tissue. Liver tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase activity (TDO), when assayed in either the absence (holoenzyme) or presence of added haematin (apoenzyme), did not

The Engagement of Cytochrome P450 Enzymes in Tryptophan Metabolism
Metabolites, 2023 Tryptophan is metabolized along three main metabolic pathways, namely the kynurenine, serotonin and indole pathways. The majority of tryptophan is transformed via the kynurenine pathway, catalyzed by tryptophan-2,3-dioxygenase or indoleamine-2,3 ...

A Defect in Tryptophan Metabolism [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1976 Oral tryptophan loading tests were performed in a patient with photosensitive pellagra-like skin rash and cerebellar ataxia but without hyperaminoaciduria. Plasma tryptophan concentrations after loading were similar in the patient and control subjects.

Metabonomic Study of the Involvement of the Intestinal Microflora in the Improvement of Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) by Auricularia auricula Melanin in Mice [PDF]
Shipin Kexue, 2023 Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a common iron deficiency disease. IDA has become one of the major public health problems worldwide. Our previous studies have shown that Auricularia auricula melanin (AAM) can alleviate IDA, but the mechanism is not clear.

Tryptophan metabolism in bipolar disorder
European Psychiatry, 2022 Introduction Immune mediated inflammatory processes are involved in the aetiopathogenesis of bipolar disorder (BD) and weight associated comorbidities. Tryptophan breakdown via indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO-1) along the kynurenine axis concomitant ...
