Kynurenine pathway
text:
The kynurenine pathway is a metabolic pathway leading to the production of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Metabolites involved in the kynurenine pathway include tryptophan, kynurenine, kynurenic acid, xanthurenic acid, quinolinic acid, and 3-hydroxykynurenine. The kynurenine pathway is responsible for about 95% of total tryptophan catabolism. Disruption in the pathway is associated with certain genetic and psychiatric disorders.
