Human Endogenous Metabolite
In Vitro 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. L-kynurenine (Kyn) is an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonist that activates AHR-directed, naive T cell polarization to the anti-inflammatory Treg phenotype. Kynurenine activates AHR signaling at physiological concentrations in H1L7.5c3 cells and acts as an AHR agonist after a 24-hr exposure by inducing the AHR-regulated luciferase gene in H1L7.5c3 mouse hepatocyte cells[1].
In Vivo Kynurenine dilates arteries from rats as well as humans via Kv7 channels in the vascular smooth muscle. In rats, this tryptophan metabolite causes hypotension, which is partly counteracted by Kv7 channel inhibition[2]. L-kynurenine administered 1 h before the hypoxia-ischemia shows a dose-dependent significant neuroprotective effect, with complete protection at a dose of 300 mg/kg. The induction of c-fos immunoreactivity in cerebral cortex is also blocked by this dose of L-kynurenine[3].
Cell Assay Luciferase assays are carried out using the H1L7.5c3 cells. At the indicated times (0.5, 2, 4, 6, 12, 18, 24 h) and concentrations (0.1, 1, 10, 100 μM) of exposures to Kynurenine, cells are removed from incubation and allowed to equilibrate to room temperature for 15min. After equilibration, the medium is removed and the cells are washed twice with at room temperature with DPBS. The cells are lysed with 20 µL/well 1× Passive Lysis Buffer and shaken for 20min at room temperature. Luciferase activity is recorded using an Luminometer Microplate Reader[1].
Animal Admin Rats[3] The effects of increasing doses of L-kynurenine with or without probenecid on concentrations of kynurenic acid in cerebral cortex are examined in 7-day-old rats. Six animals are examined in each group. Animals are treated with L-kynurenine at doses of 100, 200, 300, and 400 mg/kg or kynurenine, 200 mg/kg with probenecid, 50 mg/kg. Animals are killed at 1 h, the brains promptly removed, and the cerebral cortex is dissected and placed in 0.5 mL of chilled 0. 1 M HCl. Kynurenic acid measurements are made by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. Protein measurements are made using a fluorometric assay[3].
