kynurenine and Pleural Effusion

kynurenine has been researched along with Pleural Effusion 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.

Pleural Effusion: Presence of fluid in the pleural cavity resulting from excessive transudation or exudation from the pleural surfaces. It is a sign of disease and not a diagnosis in itself.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Pleural fluid from patients with TBP had significantly higher kynurenine concentrations and significantly lower tryptophan concentrations, resulting in significantly higher IDO activity compared with pleural effusion or serum from non-tuberculous pleuritis (all P < 0."3.79Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase in the pathogenesis of tuberculous pleurisy.
