kynurenine and Muscle Spasm

kynurenine has been researched along with Muscle Spasm in 5 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.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"These results highlight the importance of tryptophan-kynurenine metabolism in infantile spasms and provide evidence for new-targeted therapies such as indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 inhibition or microbiota manipulation to promote kynurenic acid production as a strategy to reduce spasms in infantile spasms."8.12Seizure modulation by the gut microbiota and tryptophan-kynurenine metabolism in an animal model of infantile spasms. ( Barrett, KT; Choudhary, A; Mayengbam, S; Mu, C; Rho, JM; Scantlebury, MH; Shearer, J, 2022)
"There was a statistically significant decrease of CSF kynurenic acid in patients with epileptic spasms compared to OND (p<0."8.12Decreased cerebrospinal fluid kynurenic acid in epileptic spasms: A biomarker of response to corticosteroids.
