We investigated L-kynurenine distribution and metabolism in rats with experimental chronic renal failure of various severity, induced by unilateral nephrectomy and partial removal of contralateral kidney cortex. In animals with renal insufficiency the plasma concentration and the content of L-tryptophan in homogenates of kidney, liver, lung, intestine and spleen were significantly decreased. Th...
Paper chromatography has provided an excellent method for the detection and identification of tryptophan and its fluorescing metabolites (1) and has proved helpful in the development of methods for the quantitative calorimetric estimation of tryptophan, kynurenine, and anthranilic acid (2). The purpose of this communication is to report the use of these techniques in determining the effect of a...
BACKGROUND Disturbances in mineral and bone metabolism represent one of the most complex complications of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Serotonin, a monoamine synthesized from tryptophan, may play a potential role in bone metabolism. Brain-derived serotonin exerts a positive effect on the bone structure by limiting bone resorption and enhancing bone formation. Tryptophan is the precursor not on...
Background: Tryptophan metabolites such as serotonin, kynurenine, or kynurenic acids are considered to be the most important of gut microbiota. We wanted know about changes in tryptophan various diseases which etiology microbiota participate. Methods: Ultra-high speed liquid chromatography/mass spectroscopy (LC/MS) has been used analyze simultaneously all metabolites, we have explored for first...
In a preliminary report (I), we have described an intense inhibitory action of the sulfate esters of estrone, estradiol, and diethylstilbestrol on the kynurenine transaminase of rat kidney and on the phosphorylase a of rabbit muscle. More recently, we have also found that this interaction results in protection of the kynurenine transaminase from proteolysis and from the inactivation that normal...
Kynurenine transaminase activity in rat liver was found in both the mitochondrial and supernatant fractions. The mitochondrial and supernatant fractions contained (a) kynurenine-pyruvate transaminase, which showed a preference for pyruvate as amino acceptor and a pH optimum between 8.0 and 8.5, and (b) kynurenine-alpha-oxoglutarate transaminase, with a preference for alpha-oxoglutarate and a pH...
The biosynthesis of quinolinate, the de novo precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), may be performed by two distinct pathways, namely, the bacterial aspartate (aspartate-to-quinolinate) and the eukaryotic kynurenine (tryptophan-to-quinolinate). Even though the separation into eukaryotic and bacterial routes is long established, recent genomic surveys have challenged this view, be...
The primary headache disorders include migraine, which is one of the most frequent neurological disorders, which influences more than 14% of the whole population. Despite the research efforts, its exact pathomechanism is not fully revealed, but evidence points to the role of glutamate and its receptors. Kynurenic acid is an endogenous glutamate receptor antagonist produced by the kynurenine pat...
To assess the role of the kynurenine pathway in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the expression and localization of key components of the kynurenine pathway including the key regulatory enzyme tryptophan 2,3 dioxygenase (TDO), and the metabolites tryptophan, kynurenine, kynurenic acid, quinolinic acid and picolinic acid were assessed in different brain regions of triple transgenic AD ...
To quantify the full range of tryptophan metabolites along the kynurenine pathway, a liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and used to analyse brain extracts of rodents treated with the kynurenine-3-mono-oxygenase (KMO) inhibitor Ro61-8048 during pregnancy. There were significant increases in the levels of kynurenine, kynurenic acid, anthranilic acid and 3-hydrox...
