Chemical Information
FooDB NameKynurenine
DescriptionKynurenine, also known as 3-anthraniloylalanine, is a member of the class of compounds known as alkyl-phenylketones. Alkyl-phenylketones are aromatic compounds containing a ketone substituted by one alkyl group, and a phenyl group. Kynurenine is slightly soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). Kynurenine can be found in a number of food items such as yellow zucchini, carrot, spinach, and broccoli, which makes kynurenine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Kynurenine is synthesized by the enzyme tryptophan dioxygenase, which is made primarily but not exclusively in the liver, and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, which is made in many tissues in response to immune activation. Kynurenine and its further breakdown products carry out diverse biological functions, including dilating blood vessels during inflammation and regulating the immune response. Some cancers increase kynurenine production, which increases tumor growth .
