The Kynurenine Pathway Modulates Neurodegeneration in a Drosophila Model of Huntington's Disease

TL;DR: This study provides the first genetic evidence that inhibition of KMO and TDO activity protects against neurodegenerative disease in an animal model, indicating that strategies targeted at two key points within the KP may have therapeutic relevance in HD, and possibly other neuro degenerative disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired Kynurenine Pathway Metabolism in The Prefrontal Cortex of Individuals With Schizophrenia

TL;DR: The present results further support the hypothesis that the normalization of cortical KP metabolism may constitute an effective new treatment strategy in SZ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Of mice, rats and men: Revisiting the quinolinic acid hypothesis of Huntington's disease

TL;DR: Data supporting the idea that metabolites of the kynurenine pathway (KP) of tryptophan degradation provide a critical link between mutant htt and the pathophysiology of HD are reviewed, and pharmacological normalization of the imbalance in brain KP metabolism may provide clinical benefits.
