Functional metabolomics reveal the role of AHR/GPR35 mediated kynurenic acid gradient sensing in chemotherapy-induced intestinal damage

Di Wang et al.

Summary: Chemotherapy-induced intestinal damage is characterized by upregulation of the tryptophan-kynurenine-kynurenic acid axis metabolism, with AHR and GPR35 playing important roles in regulating intestinal integrity and inflammation. The discovery of vardenafil and linagliptin as potential therapeutics for alleviating chemotherapy-induced intestinal toxicity highlights the potential of targeting GPR35 and AHR in cancer therapy.

Altered kynurenine pathway metabolism in patients with ankylosing spondylitis

Duygu Eryavuz Onmaz et al.

Summary: The study found altered kynurenine pathway metabolism in AS patients. Conventional therapy and anti-TNF-alpha therapy are effective in reducing the Kynurenine/Tryptophan ratio and CRP levels.

Alterations of kynurenine pathway in alcohol use disorder and abstinence: a link with gut microbiota, peripheral inflammation and psychological symptoms

Sophie Leclercq et al.

Summary: The gut-brain communication in patients with alcohol use disorder involves complex interactions between immune, metabolic and neural pathways. The study found that neurotoxic metabolite quinolinic acid increased and neuroprotective metabolite kynurenic acid decreased in AUD patients, particularly at the end of a detoxification program. Inflammatory marker hsCRP was associated with metabolic ratios of the kynurenine pathway, while tryptophan, KYNA and QUIN were correlated with depression, alcohol craving and reaction time, respectively.

GPR35 in Intestinal Diseases: From Risk Gene to Function

Berna Kaya et al.

Summary: Diet and gut microbial metabolites play a crucial role in mediating host immune responses and maintaining intestinal health. The metabolite-sensing GPCRs, especially GPR35, are important for signaling that affects host cell function and survival. There is a link between GPR35 and intestinal diseases, with studies showing that it is activated by metabolites such as KYNA, CXCL17, and LPA.

Tryptophan Metabolism and Gut-Brain Homeostasis

William Roth et al.

Summary: Tryptophan is crucial for protein synthesis and neurotransmitter production, impacting emotional regulation and nervous system development. Dysregulation of tryptophan metabolism contributes to various neurological and psychiatric disorders. The influence of gut microbes on tryptophan metabolism is being explored as a potential therapeutic target for these conditions.

Tetrabromobisphenol A induces THR β-mediated inflammation and uterine injury in mice at environmentally relevant exposure concentrations

Wenjuan Zhang et al.

Summary: The study found that TBBPA was present in a significant percentage of female Chinese volunteers and had adverse effects on mice, including increased secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and suppression of immune responses. Furthermore, TBBPA exposure may increase the risk of uterine cancer through the activation of inflammatory pathways.
