3-hydroxykynurenine and Vitiligo

3-hydroxykynurenine has been researched along with Vitiligo in 1 studies

3-hydroxykynurenine: RN given refers to cpd without isomeric designation
3-hydroxykynurenine : A hydroxykynurenine that is kynurenine substituted by a hydroxy group at position 3.
hydroxykynurenine : A hydroxy-amino acid that is kynurenine substituted by a single hydroxy group at unspecified position. A "closed" class.

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.

Research Excerpts

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)
