Metabonomic Study of the Involvement of the Intestinal Microflora in the Improvement of Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) by Auricularia auricula Melanin in Mice [PDF]
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.

Metformin reprograms tryptophan metabolism to stimulate CD8+ T cell function in colorectal cancer.
Colorectal carcinogenesis coincides with immune cell dysfunction. Metformin has been reported to play a role in stimulating anti-tumor immunity, suggesting it could be used to overcome immunosuppression in colorectal cancer (CRC).

Tryptophan Metabolism and Gut-Brain Homeostasis
Tryptophan is an essential amino acid critical for protein synthesis in humans that has emerged as a key player in the microbiota-gut-brain axis. It is the only precursor for the neurotransmitter serotonin, which is vital for the processing of emotional ...

Tryptophan metabolism in depression [PDF]
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.
