Tryptophan metabolism

Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2013
Aging is an important risk factor for many debilitating diseases, including cancer and neurodegeneration. In model organisms, interfering with metabolic signaling pathways, including the insulin/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) 1 (IIS) and TOR pathways, can protect against age-related pathologies and increase lifespan.

Tryptophan metabolism in depressive illness

Psychological Medicine, 1974
SYSNOPSIS[Methylene-14C]-L-tryptophan was administered intravenously to five patients suffering from severe depression before and after clinical recovery, and to six control subjects; all subjects were tested while on a standard diet. [14C]-5-Hydroxyindoleacetic acid and [14C]-indoleacetic acid were isolated from urine during the following 48 hours and

The Control of Tryptophan Metabolism

1975
This volume as a whole describes enzyme induction mechanisms and the influences of enzyme induction upon metabolism and its control. The present chapter deals with various ways in which the metabolism of a single amino acid tryptophan is controlled. While processes influencing this include induction, the de novo synthesis of enzymes which metabolize ...

Tryptophan Metabolism in Affective Psychoses

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1966
Tryptophan has attracted attention during recent years for the possible role played by some of its metabolites in the aetiology and treatment of psychiatric disorders. Of these metabolites, serotonin has received special attention and considerable work has been carried out in order to elucidate its physiological and pharmacological actions.

Tryptophan Metabolism

Archives of Dermatology, 1967
A young girl with scleroderma and 21 members of her family were studied for their ability to metabolize tryptophan by the pathway which leads to nicotinic acid. Nine of ten female members of the family and two of 12 males had abnormal tryptophan metabolism.

Screening for defects in tryptophan metabolism

Journal of Chromatography A, 2000
We introduced a two-step procedure for the detection of defects in metabolism of tryptophan: (1) HPTLC (described previously) is suitable when starting the investigation, (2) two HPLC methods with isocratic elution and spectrophotometric detection are used at the next step, when pathological findings are to be confirmed and the individual metabolites ...

Tryptophan metabolism in experimental porphyria

Biochemical Pharmacology, 1967
Abstract Although there seems to be no qualitative difference in the excretion of certain urinary metabolites of l -tryptophan between normal and porphyric rats, quantitative determination showed that there is a decrease in the level of excretion of l -kynurenine and 3-OH-kynurenine.

Tryptophan metabolism in liver disease

Clinica Chimica Acta, 1971
Abstract Plasma levels of tryptophan were observed in the fasting state and after oral administration of l -tryptophan in normal subjects and in patients with chronic liver disease. Mean plasma tryptophan levels in patients with liver cirrhosis slightly but not significantly increased, while in patients with hepatic encephalopathy or coma they ...
