Previous studies have demonstrated that the compound N-acetyl-L-tryptophan (NAT) reduces brain edema and improves functional outcome following traumatic brain injury (TBI). In this study we examined whether this effect was mediated via the neurokinin-1 receptor, and whether there was an

Tryptophan and melatonin are nitrated by peroxynitrite; tryptophan residues in proteins are susceptible to attack by reactive nitrogen species. Nitrated tryptophan might therefore be used as a biomarker for the involvement of reactive species derived from nitrogen oxide in a
