F Moroni et al.
Journal of neurochemistry, 47(6), 1667-1671 (1986-12-01)
Quinolinic acid (QUIN), an excitotoxic tryptophan metabolite, has been identified and measured in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) using a mass-fragmentographic method. Furthermore, its content has been evaluated in frontal cortex obtained at autopsy from the cadavers of patients who died
Apsara Kandanearatchi et al.
The FEBS journal, 279(8), 1366-1374 (2012-01-21)
This brief review will first consider HIV associated neurocognitive disorder followed by the current understanding of its neuropathogenesis. Against this background the role of the kynurenine pathway will be detailed. Evidence both direct and indirect will be discussed for involvement
Katherine R Leaver et al.
ACS chemical neuroscience, 3(2), 114-119 (2012-08-04)
There is evidence that excitotoxicity and prolonged microglial activation are involved in neuronal death in neurodegenerative disorders. Activated microglia express various molecules, including the translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO; formerly known as the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor) on the outer mitochondrial
Isabelle M Medana et al.
The Journal of infectious diseases, 185(5), 650-656 (2002-02-28)
A retrospective study of 261 Vietnamese adults with severe malaria was conducted to determine the relationship between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of metabolites of the kynurenine pathway, the incidence of neurologic complications, and the disease outcome. Three metabolites were measured:
Gilles J Guillemin et al.
Neuro-degenerative diseases, 2(3-4), 166-176 (2006-08-16)
The kynurenine pathway (KP) is a major route of L-tryptophan catabolism leading to production of several neurobiologically active molecules. Among them is the excitotoxin quinolinic acid (QUIN) that is known to be involved in the pathogenesis of several major inflammatory
