3-hydroxyanthranilic acid and Vitiligo

3-hydroxyanthranilic acid has been researched along with Vitiligo in 2 studies

3-Hydroxyanthranilic Acid: An oxidation product of tryptophan metabolism. It may be a free radical scavenger and a carcinogen.
3-hydroxyanthranilic acid : An aminobenzoic acid that is benzoic acid substituted at C-2 by an amine group and at C-3 by a hydroxy group. It is an intermediate in the metabolism of the amino acid tryptophan.
3-hydroxyanthranilate : A hydroxybenzoate that is the conjugate base of 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid.

Vitiligo: A disorder consisting of areas of macular depigmentation, commonly on extensor aspects of extremities, on the face or neck, and in skin folds. Age of onset is often in young adulthood and the condition tends to progress gradually with lesions enlarging and extending until a quiescent state is reached.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Tryptophan metabolism "via kynurenine" is altered in vitiligo: after a load of the amino acid the urinary excretion of 3-hydroxykynurenine and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid is decreased, whereas that of xanthurenic acid and its 8-methyl ether is increased."7.66Alterations of the tryptophan--nicotinic acid metabolism in vitiligo. ( Allegri, G; Cardin Dè Stefani, EL; Costa, C; De Antoni, A; Vanzan, S, 1982)
