3-Hydroxykynurenin
Active
Description
3-Hydroxykynurenine is a metabolite of tryptophan, an essential amino acid used for protein synthesis. Tryptophan metabolism regulates levels of amines, including serotonin, kynurenines, melatonin and trace amines. Tryptophan and its metabolites play a key role in several pathophysiological conditions, including neuroendocrine tumors (i.e. carcinoid tumors with excessive serotonin production), mood disorders such as depression with decreased serotonin production, inflammation, immune-activation, and pregnancy.
