General description

3-Hydroxy-DL-kynurenine is a tryptophan metabolite with a molecular weight corresponding to 224Da. It is a chromophore or hydrophilic yellow compound present in the lens of the eye. 3-Hydroxy-DL-kynurenine is synthesized from kynurenine by the action of enzyme kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO). It is metabolized to 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid and xanthurenic acid in the presence of enzymes kynureninase and kynurenine aminotransferases, respectively.

Application

3-Hydroxy-DL-kynurenine has been used:
  • as a substrate for the recombinant human kynureninase assay
  • as a reference standard in tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) analysis
  • as a control for quantifying serum 3-Hydroxy-DL-kynurenine levels in diabetic retinopathy patients

Biochem/physiol Actions

3-Hydroxy-DL-kynurenine (3-HKYN) has antioxidant functionality and prevents lipid peroxidation in cerebral cortex. It may modulate synaptic neurotransmission. The levels of 3-HKYN is elevated in Huntington′s disease. However, its role in neurodegenerative diseases is still not understood well. Kynurenine metabolism is linked with glutamatergic neurotransmission and the level of 3-HKYN is linked to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.

Neuroactive metabolites of the kynurenine pathway (KP) of tryptophan degradation have been implicated in the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative disorders, including Huntington's disease (HD) [1]. A central hallmark of HD is neurodegeneration caused by a polyglutamine expansion in the huntingtin (htt)

The association between the pro-inflammatory state of schizophrenia and increased tryptophan degradation into kynurenine has been reported. However, the relationship between metabolites from subdivisions of the kynurenine pathway, kynurenic acid and 3-hydroxykynurenine, remains unknown. The present study tested the relationship

One branch of the tryptophan catabolic cascade is the kynurenine pathway, which produces neurotoxic [3-hydroxykynurenine (3-OHKY), quinolinic acid] and neuroinhibitory (kynurenic acid) compounds. Kynurenic acid acts as a competitive antagonist at the glycine site of N-methyl-d-asparate receptors at high concentrations
