kynurenine and Central Nervous System Infection

kynurenine has been researched along with Central Nervous System Infection in 2 studies

Kynurenine: A metabolite of the essential amino acid tryptophan metabolized via the tryptophan-kynurenine pathway.
kynurenine : A ketone that is alanine in which one of the methyl hydrogens is substituted by a 2-aminobenzoyl group.

"We measured concentrations of kynurenine (Kyn) and tryptophan (Trp) in 221 cerebrospinal fluid samples from patients with bacterial and viral (due to herpes simplex, varicella zoster, and enteroviruses) meningitis/encephalitis, neuroborreliosis, autoimmune neuroinflammation (due to anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor [NMDA] encephalitis and multiple sclerosis), and noninflamed controls (ie, individuals with Bell palsy, normal pressure hydrocephalus, or Tourette syndrome)."7.91Kynurenine Is a Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarker for Bacterial and Viral Central Nervous System Infections.
