Abstract:

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that can be metabolised through different pathways, a major route being the kynurenine pathway. The first enzyme of the pathway, indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase, is strongly stimulated by inflammatory molecules, particularly interferon gamma. Thus, the kynurenine pathway is often systematically up-regulated when the immune response is activated. The biological significance is that 1) the depletion of tryptophan and generation of kynurenines play a key modulatory role in the immune response; and 2) some of the kynurenines, such as quinolinic acid, 3-hydroxykynurenine and kynurenic acid, are neuroactive. The kynurenine pathway has been demonstrated to be involved in many diseases and disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington's disease, AIDS dementia complex, malaria, cancer, depression and schizophrenia, where imbalances in tryptophan and kynurenines have been found. This review compiles most of these studies and provides an overview of how the kynurenine pathway might be contributing to disease development, and the concentrations of tryptophan and kynurenines in the serum, cerebrospinal fluid and brain tissues in control and patient subjects.

Abstract:

The kynurenine pathway is the main route of tryptophan degradation which gives rise to several neuroactive metabolites. Kynurenic acid is an endogenous antagonist of excitatory receptors, which proved to be neuroprotective in the preclinical settings. Kynurenines have been implicated in the neuroendocrine regulatory processes. Stress induces several alterations in the kynurenine metabolism and this process may contribute to the development of stress-related pathological processes. Irritable bowel disease and gastric ulcer are well-known disorders which are related to psychiatric comorbidity and stress. In experimental conditions kynurenic acid proved to be beneficial by reducing inflammatory processes and normalizing microcirculation in the bowel. Further investigations are needed to better understand the relations of stress and the kynurenines, with the aim of developing novel therapeutic tools for stress-related pathologies. Orv.

Abstract:

Disbalance of kynurenines produced by Drosophila mutations of the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism influences the locomotor behavior in larvae. The most pronounced is the effect of accumulation of kynurenic acid in the mutant cinnabar manifested as sharp reduction of general level of locomotor activity. The mutations seem to act through modulatory influences of kynurenines on signal cascades governed by ionotropic glutamatergic and cholinergic receptors. Expression of receptor genes in the mutants shows age-related changes pointing to gradual evolvement of consequences of kynurenines disbalance.

Abstract:

Schizophrenia is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by various symptoms including autonomic imbalance. These disturbances involve almost all autonomic functions and might contribute to poor medication compliance, worsened quality of life and increased mortality. Therefore, it has a great importance to find a potential therapeutic solution to improve the autonomic disturbances. The altered level of kynurenines (e.g., kynurenic acid), as tryptophan metabolites, is almost the most consistently found biochemical abnormality in schizophrenia. Kynurenic acid influences different types of receptors, most of them involved in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Only few data suggest that kynurenines might have effects on multiple autonomic functions. Publications so far have discussed the implication of kynurenines and the alteration of the autonomic nervous system in schizophrenia independently from each other. Thus, the coupling between them has not yet been addressed in schizophrenia, although their direct common points, potential interfaces indicate the consideration of their interaction. The present review gathers autonomic disturbances, the impaired kynurenine pathway in schizophrenia, and the effects of kynurenine pathway on autonomic functions. In the last part of the review, the potential interaction between the two systems in schizophrenia, and the possible therapeutic options are discussed.

Abstract:

Introduction: Circulating tryptophan (Trp) and its downstream metabolites, the kynurenines, are potentially neuroactive. Consequently, they could be associated with neuropsychiatric symptoms and cognitive prognosis in patients with dementia. Objective: The objective of this study was to assess associations between circulating kynurenines, cognitive prognosis, and neuropsychiatric symptoms. Methods: We measured baseline serum Trp, neopterin, pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP), and 9 kynurenines in 155 patients with mild dementia (90 with Alzheimer’s disease, 65 with Lewy body dementia). The ratios between kynurenine and Trp and kynurenic acid (KA) to kynurenine (KKR) were calculated. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) were administered at baseline and annually over 5 years. Associations between baseline metabolite concentrations with MMSE and the NPI total score were assessed using a generalized structural equation model (mixed-effects multiprocess model), adjusted for age, sex, current smoking, glomerular filtration rate, and PLP. Post hoc associations between KKRs and individual NPI items were assessed using logistic mixed-effects models. False discovery rate (0.05)–adjusted P values ( Q values) are reported. Results: Kynurenine had a nonlinear quadratic relationship with the intercept of the MMSE scores over 5 years ( Q < 0.05), but not with the slope of MMSE decline. Kynurenine was associated with a higher NPI total score over time ( Q < 0.001). Post hoc, both KKR and KA were associated with more hallucinations ( Q < 0.05). Conclusions: Kynurenine has a complex relationship with cognition, where both low and high levels were associated with poor cognitive performance. A higher KKR indicated risk for neuropsychiatric symptoms, especially hallucinations.

Abstract:

Kynurenine (kyn) and kynurenic acid (kyna) are well-defined metabolites of tryptophan catabolism collectively known as “kynurenines”, which exert regulatory functions in host-microbiome signaling, immune cell response, and neuronal excitability. Kynurenine containing peptides endowed with opioid receptor activity have been isolated from natural organisms; thus, in this work, novel opioid peptide analogs incorporating L-kynurenine (L-kyn) and kynurenic acid (kyna) in place of native amino acids have been designed and synthesized with the aim to investigate the biological effect of these modifications. The kyna-containing peptide (KA1) binds selectively the μ-opioid receptor with a Ki = 1.08 ± 0.26 (selectivity ratio μ/δ/κ = 1:514:10,000), while the L-kyn-containing peptide (K6) shows a mixed binding affinity for μ, δ, and κ-opioid receptors, with efficacy and potency (Emax = 209.7 + 3.4%; LogEC50 = −5.984 + 0.054) higher than those of the reference compound DAMGO. This novel oligopeptide exhibits a strong antinociceptive effect after i.c.v. and s.c. administrations in in vivo tests, according to good stability in human plasma (t1/2 = 47 min).

Abstract:

Vitamins B2and B6are cofactors in the kynurenine pathway. Many of the kynurenines are neuroactive compounds with immunomodulatory effects. In the present study, we aimed to investigate plasma concentrations of vitamins B2and B6as determinants of kynurenines and two markers of interferon-γ-mediated immune activation (kynurenine:tryptophan ratio (KTR) and neopterin). We measured the concentrations of vitamins B2and B6vitamers, neopterin, tryptophan and six kynurenines (i.e. kynurenine, anthranilic acid, kynurenic acid, 3-hydroxykynurenine, 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid and xanthurenic acid) in plasma from 7051 individuals. Dietary intake of vitamins B2and B6was assessed using a validated FFQ. Associations were investigated using partial Spearman's correlations, generalised additive models, and segmented or multiple linear regression. The B2vitamer, riboflavin, was positively associated with 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid and xanthurenic acid, with correlation coefficients, as obtained by segmented regression, of 0·20 (95 % CI 0·16, 0·23) and 0·24 (95 % CI 0·19, 0·28), at riboflavin concentrations below the median value (13·0 nmol/l). The vitamin B6vitamer, pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP), was positively associated with most kynurenines at PLP concentrations < 39·3–47·0 nmol/l, and inversely associated with 3-hydroxykynurenine with the association being more prominent at PLP concentrations < 18·9 nmol/l. Riboflavin and PLP were associated with xanthurenic acid only at relatively low, but normal concentrations of both vitamers. Lastly, PLP was negatively correlated with neopterin and KTR. These results demonstrate the significant and complex determination of kynurenine metabolism by vitamin status. Future studies on B-vitamins and kynurenines in relation to chronic diseases should therefore integrate data on relevant biomarkers related to B-vitamins status and tryptophan metabolism.

Abstract:

Background: The apolipoprotein E ε4 gene variant (APOEε4) confers considerable risk for dementia and affects neuroinflammation, brain metabolism, and synaptic function. The kynurenine pathway (KP) gives rise to neuroactive metabolites, which have inflammatory, redox, and excitotoxic effects in the brain. Aim: To assess whether the presence of at least one APOEε4 allele modifies the association between kynurenines and the cognitive prognosis. Methods: A total of 152 patients with sera for metabolite measurements and APOE genotype were included from the Dementia Study of Western Norway. The participants had mild Alzheimer disease and Lewy body dementia. Apolipoprotein E ε4 gene variant allele status was classified as one or more ε4 versus any other. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was measured at baseline and for 5 consecutive years. Mann-Whitney U tests and linear mixed-effects models were used for statistical analysis. Results: There were no significant differences in serum concentrations of tryptophan and kynurenine according to the presence or absence of APOEε4. High serum concentrations of kynurenic acid, quinolinic acid, and picolinic acid, and a higher kynurenine-to-tryptophan ratio, were all associated with more cognitive decline in patients without APOEε4 compared to those with the APOEε4 allele ( P-value of the interactions < .05). Conclusions: Kynurenic acid, quinolinic acid, picolinic acid, and the kynurenine-to-tryptophan ratio were associated with a significant increase in cognitive decline when the APOEε4 variant was absent, whereas there was a relatively less decline when the APOEε4 variant was present.

Abstract:

Kynurenic acid, a metabolite of the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan catabolism, acts as an antagonist for both the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and glycine coagonist sites of the N-methyl-d-aspartic acid receptor at endogenous brain concentrations. Elevation of brain kynurenic acid levels reduces the release of neurotransmitters such as dopamine and glutamate, and kynurenic acid is considered to be involved in psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and depression. Thus, the control of kynurenine pathway, especially kynurenic acid production, in the brain is an important target for the improvement of brain function or the effective treatment of brain disorders. Astrocytes uptake kynurenine, the immediate precursor of kynurenic acid, via large neutral amino acid transporters, and metabolize kynurenine to kynurenic acid by kynurenine aminotransferases. The former transport both branched-chain and aromatic amino acids, and the latter have substrate specificity for amino acids and their metabolites. Recent studies have suggested the possibility that amino acids may suppress kynurenic acid production via the blockade of kynurenine transport or via kynurenic acid synthesis reactions. This approach may be useful in the treatment and prevention of neurological and psychiatric diseases associated with elevated kynurenic acid levels.

Abstract:

The metabolism of the amino acid l-tryptophan is a highly regulated physiological process leading to the generation of several neuroactive compounds within the central nervous system. These include the aminergic neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), products of the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism (including 3-hydroxykynurenine, 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, quinolinic acid and kynurenic acid), the neurohormone melatonin, several neuroactive kynuramine metabolites of melatonin, and the trace amine tryptamine. The integral role of central serotonergic systems in the modulation of physiology and behaviour has been well documented since the first description of serotonergic neurons in the brain some 40 years ago. However, while the significance of the peripheral kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism has also been recognised for several decades, it has only recently been appreciated that the synthesis of kynurenines within the central nervous system has important consequences for physiology and behaviour. Altered kynurenine metabolism has been implicated in the pathophysiology of conditions such as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related dementia, Huntington's disease and Alzheimer's disease. In this review we discuss the molecular mechanisms involved in regulating the metabolism of tryptophan and consider the medical implications associated with dysregulation of both serotonergic and kynurenine pathways of tryptophan metabolism.

Abstract:

Bien que l’effet psychotrope des antidépresseurs soit bien connu, afin de corriger les conséquences du stress et de renforcer la confiance en soi, de nombreux autres effets pharmacologiques, notamment périphériques, doivent encore être approfondis. Les antidépresseurs inhibiteurs de la recapture de la sérotonine (ISRS) peuvent avoir un effet bénéfique sur la performance physique en participant à une réparation et à une croissance plus rapides des muscles. Il a récemment été démontré que la sérotonine était impliquée dans la récupération de la force musculaire chez un modèle murin de myopathie de Duchenne (Gurel et al., 2015). Les antidépresseurs tels que les inhibiteurs sélectifs de la recapture de la sérotonine (ISRS) sont largement utilisés pour traiter divers troubles de la santé mentale, tels que la dépression modérée à sévère et l’anxiété. Les deux symptômes contribuent à l’insomnie, à la perte d’appétit, au manque de motivation et à une fatigue physique accrue. Ces symptômes peuvent nuire aux performances physiques des athlètes, en particulier de ceux qui développent des habiletés et des techniques spécifiques à un sport, reçoivent des volumes d’entraînement plus importants à différentes intensités et participent à des compétitions plus fréquentes. Par conséquent, les athlètes peuvent utiliser des médicaments qui renforcent la motivation et / ou améliorent la condition physique générale en réduisant les symptômes dépressifs. L'utilisation d'antidépresseurs n'est pas encore interdite dans les sports d'élite. Des rapports récents sur le dopage associé aux ISRS montrent une tendance croissante de son utilisation chez les athlètes en bonne santé. La consommation d'antidépresseurs chez les athlètes a augmenté dans différents sports au cours de la dernière décennie, notamment les sports d'endurance.. Notre projet doit donc permettre de caractériser les conséquences d'un traitement chronique par ISRS sur les performances physiques chez la souris et de mettre en évidence le ou les mécanismes impliqués, en particulier la variation du shunt métabolique sérotonine / kynurénine, ainsi que les modifications de biomarqueurs, variations potentiellement utilisables chez l'homme dans la lutte contre le dopage.Nous aimerions élucider notre travail de recherche dans les articles suivants:Article 1: Nous avons étudié les effets de l'exercice et de la fluoxétine seuls ou en association avec un traitement prolongé à la fluoxétine (18 mg / kg / jour) et un exercice physique d'endurance (six semaines) chez la souris mâle BalbC / j, sur tapis roulant. Nous avons ensuite évalué l'activité neurocomportementale, les marqueurs musculaires du stress oxydatif et les modifications du métabolisme du tryptophane dans les tissus plasmatiques, musculaires et cérébraux des souris BalbC / J. En général, nous nous sommes concentrés sur la vitesse aérobie la plus élevée, le temps d’endurance jusqu’à l’épuisement, la force musculaire des membres antérieurs en saisissant un mesureur de force, des tests neurocomportementaux tels que le test en champ ouvert et élevé et le labyrinthe, l’activité enzymatique mitochondriale (activité du citrate synthase et du cytochrome C oxydase) dans le muscle gastrocnémien. , marqueur de stress oxydant tel que le test DHE (Dihydroéthidium) et DCF-DA (Dichlorofluorscine diacétate).Article 2: Nous avons étudié les effets de l’exercice et de la fluoxétine seule ou les effets combinés d’un traitement prolongé à la fluoxétine (18 mg / kg / jour) et d’un exercice d’endurance physique (six semaines) chez la souris mâle BalbC / j, sur tapis roulant
As much as the psychotropic effect of antidepressants is well known, correcting the consequences of stress and boosting self-confidence, so many other pharmacological effects, peripheral in particular, remain to be deepened. Serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressants (SSRIs) may have a beneficial effect on physical performance by participating in faster muscle repair and growth. It has recently been shown that serotonin was involved in the recovery of muscle strength in a mouse model of Duchenne myopathy (Gurel et al., 2015).Antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are widely used to treat various mental health disorders, such as moderate-to-severe depression and anxiety. Both symptoms contribute to insomnia, loss of appetite, lack of motivation and increased physical fatigue. These symptoms can impair physical performances for athletes, more specifically for those who develop sport-specific skills and techniques, receive higher training volumes at various intensities, and participate in more frequent competitions. Therefore athletes may use drugs that enhance motivation and/or improve overall fitness by reducing depressive symptoms. The use of antidepressants is not yet forbidden in elite sports. Recent reports on doping associated with SSRIs show an increasing trend of its usage among healthy athletes. The antidepressants intake among athletes has increased in different sports over the last decade, especially endurance sports. The antidepressants Bupropion and Amineptine were removed from the list of banned substances.Our project must therefore make it possible to characterize the consequences of chronic treatment with SSRIs on the physical performance in mice and to highlight the mechanism (s) involved, in particular the variation of the serotonin / kynurenine metabolic shunt, as well as the modifications of biomarkers, potentially usable variations in humans in the fight against doping.We would like to elucidate our research work in the following articles:Article 1: We studied the effects of exercise and fluoxetine alone or in combination of long-term fluoxetine treatment (18mg/kg/day) and endurance physical exercise (six weeks) in male balbC/j mice, on animal treadmill. Subsequently we evaluated neurobehavioral activity, muscle markers of oxidative stress, and changes in tryptophan metabolism in plasma, muscle and brain tissues in the BalbC/J mice. Generally we focused on the highest aerobic velocity, endurance time until exhaustion, forelimb muscle strength by gripping strength meter, neurobehavioral tests such as open field and elevated plus maze test, mitochondrial enzyme activity (Citrate synthase and cytochrome-C oxidase activity) in gastrocnemius muscle, oxidative stress marker such as DHE (Dihydroethidium) and DCF-DA (Dichlorofluorscine di-acetate)test.Article 2: We studied the effects of exercise and fluoxetine alone or combinative effects of long-term fluoxetine treatment (18mg/kg/day) and endurance physical exercise (six weeks) in male balbC/j mice, on animal treadmill. After the mentioned exercise protocol we focused on changes in tryptophan (TRP) metabolism in plasma, muscle and brain tissues in the BalbC/J mice. To confirm the metabolomic, we also studied the KP related enzyme related genes and proteins by the modern required materials and methods. We correlated the result of article1 with the metabolites level of kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism. We studied the expression of transcriptor factor PGC1α level in muscle which is induced by physical exercise(Agudelo et al., 2014). PGC1α subsequently induce the expression of kynurenine aminotransferase 1 and 2 (KAT1 and KAT2) in skeletal muscles, which convert kynurenine (KYN) to kynurenic acid (KYNA). Conversion of kynurenine to kynurenic acid decrease the level of kynurenine and quinolinic acid an NMDA receptor agonist and a neurotoxic compound

Abstract:

Kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (K3MO) lies on the kynurenine pathway, the major pathway for the catabolism of L-tryptophan. It converts kynurenine to 3-hydroxy kynurenine. Inhibition of K3MO is important in several neurological diseases and there is evidence that inhibition of K3MO could also be targeted for the prevention of multiple organ failure, secondary to acute pancreatitis. A structure activity relationship based upon the 1,2,4-oxadiazoles motif was carried out which revealed amide 207 as an inhibitor of P. fluorescens K3MO. Further structure activity relationships were developed based upon 207. This revealed 3,4-dichloro substitution in 235 and 245 as optimum for inhibition. Co-crystalisation of these inhibitors with P. fluorescens K3MO revealed their interactions with the enzyme. It also highlighted new, potential interactions between the inhibitors and K3MO. This led to the synthesis of 271 and 272, which were also potent inhibitors of K3MO. These amides were successfully co-crystalised with P. fluorescens K3MO. Further development of the amides followed, with amide 282 providing the most potent inhibitor of P. fluorescens K3MO to date (Kᵢ = 29.1 nM).

Abstract:

Kynurenine-3-monooxygenase (KMO) is a mitochondrial enzyme in the kynurenine pathway (KP) through which tryptophan is degraded to NAD+. The central KP is altered in neurodegenerative diseases and other CNS disorders. The causative role of KP metabolites has been particularly well studied in the neurodegenerative disorder Huntington’s disease (HD), a fatal adult onset condition inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. In HD, flux in the KP is perturbed such that neurotoxic metabolites (3-hydroxykynurenine and quinolinic acid) of the pathway are increased relative to a neuroprotective metabolite (kynurenic acid). KMO lies at a critical branching point in the KP such that inhibition of KMO activity ameliorates this metabolic perturbation. Consequently, several recent studies have found that KMO inhibition is protective in models of HD. These findings have widespread implications in treating several neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease where the KP is implicated in pathogenesis. The focus of this project was to better understand the cellular role(s) and interactions of KMO. To this end, a novel membrane yeast two hybrid approach was established and optimised to identify protein interaction partners for outer mitochondrial membrane proteins. This approach was implemented to identify protein interaction partners of human KMO and its yeast orthologue Bna4, which were confirmed by biochemical approaches. Additionally, genetic interaction partners of BNA4 identified by systematic genetic screens were individually validated by classic genetic manipulations. Bioinformatic tools were then used to identify enriched interaction networks for KMO using this novel interaction data. These analyses suggested possible roles for KMO in many processes, including energy metabolism, cytoskeleton organisation and response to infection and inflammation, providing evidence that KMO plays roles in diverse cellular pathways in addition to the KP.

Abstract:

The kynurenine pathway is thought to be involved in neurological disorders but its precise role and the mechanisms involved have yet to be established. Tryptophan can be metabolised via this pathway to produce the neurotoxic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor agonist, quinolinic acid (QUIN), and the direct generators of reactive oxygen species, 3-hydroxykynurenine (3HKYN) and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3HANA), as well as the neuroprotective NMDA receptor antagonist, kynurenic acid (KYNA). High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods were successfully developed and validated for measuring tryptophan, kynurenine, KYNA, 3HANA and anthranilic acid (ANA) in blood samples, using absorbance and fluorescence detection. The method for determining 3HKYN using electrochemical detection was more problematic and was only used for tryptophan loaded samples and their respective baseline samples. Using HPLC, the concentrations of tryptophan, kynurenine, KYNA, 3HKYN and 3HANA were measured in the blood of Huntington's disease (HD) patients and patients with chronic brain injury, where the injury had occurred at least one year previously. QUIN was also determined for these patients using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). In addition, the dynamics of the kynurenine pathway were investigated following oral tryptophan depletion and loading. In contrast to these chronic conditions, patients with acute stroke were also studied. The concentrations of tryptophan, kynurenine, KYNA, ANA and 3HANA were determined in the blood of the stroke patients, examining any changes in these concentrations during the two weeks after the stroke. The extent of inflammation and oxidative stress were also assessed for all patients, by measuring the levels of neopterin and the lipid peroxidation products, malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxynonenal. Patients with late stage HD showed abnormal tryptophan metabolism via the kynurenine pathway, together with increased inflammation and oxidative stress. Increased levels of kynurenine together with increased kynurenine: tryptophan (K:T) ratios, indicating greater indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) activity, were observed in blood samples from HD patients in comparison with healthy control subjects. In conjunction with this increased IDO activity, there was a decrease in the ratios of KYNA: kynurenine, suggesting decreased kynurenine aminotransferase (KAT) activity. Inflammation, which may be stimulating IDO activity, could also be decreasing KAT activity, suggested by negativecorrelations between the KYNA: kynurenine ratios and the inflammatory marker, neopterin. The inactivity of KAT suggests a small deficiency in KYNA over a long period of time which could cause a reduction in NMDA receptor antagonism, resulting in slow progressive excitotoxicity contributing to the neurodegeneration in HD. Low KYNA: kynurenine ratios were observed in baseline and tryptophan depleted samples, but after tryptophan loading, HD patients showed similar ratios compared with control subjects. This suggests that loading may be beneficial for HD patients, as more of the neuroprotectant, KYNA can potentially be produced. However, the results suggest that concentrations of the neurotoxin, QUIN, may also be increasing after tryptophan loading. Low concentrations of 3HKYN and 3HANA, with no change in QUIN levels, were also observed in the blood of HD patients. 3HANA levels continued to be decreased for the HD patients after loading. This may suggest degradation of 3HKYN and 3HANA by autoxidation producing reactive oxygen species which could contribute to the high levels of oxidative stress found in these patients. Tryptophan loading in healthy control subjects showed significant increases in the inflammatory marker, neopterin, and in the lipid peroxidation products. These results should be considered when tryptophan loading is used in psychiatric practice and in diets high in tryptophan, such as the Atkins diet. Patients with severe chronic brain injury showed similar alterations in kynurenine pathway metabolism as HD patients, at baseline and throughout the loading and depletion protocols. Although the brain injury had occurred at least one year previously, these patients showed persistent inflammation and oxidative stress, demonstrated by their increased levels of neopterin and lipid peroxidation products compared with healthy controls. In baseline blood samples, there were increased K:T ratios indicating greater IDO activity in the patients. Patients with chronic brain injury showed decreased concentrations of the neuroprotectant, KYNA, as well as low KAT activity, indicated by the decreased KYNA: kynurenine ratios. After tryptophan loading, K:T ratios decreased and the KYNA: kynurenine ratios increased in patients in comparison with controls, suggesting a reversal in the activities of the enzymes IDO and KAT. Similar levels of the inflammatory marker, neopterin, were observed in patients and controls after tryptophan loading. This suggests that these changes in IDO and KAT activities may be related to inflammation. As for the HD patients, patients with chronic brain injury showed lower levels of 3HKYN and 3HANA in their blood, with no change in QUIN levels. These metabolites may be undergoing autoxidation, producing reactive oxygen species which contribute to the ongoing oxidative stress in these patients.The kynurenine pathway was activated following an acute stroke, as indicated by the increased K:T ratios, suggesting greater IDO activity. Stroke patients also had raised levels of neopterin and lipid peroxidation products, indicating inflammation and oxidative stress. There were no changes in the blood concentrations of kynurenines, neopterin or lipid peroxidation products during the fourteen days after a stroke. Stroke patients had reduced levels of 3HANA in their blood, as observed for the HD and chronic brain injury patients. There were negative correlations between the concentration of 3HANA and the volume of the brain lesion, measured by computed tomography (CT) scan, demonstrating the importance of the decreased concentrations of 3HANA. In addition, there were increased levels of ANA in the blood of the stroke patients and the ratios of 3HANA: ANA also correlated with brain lesion volume. Another measurement which correlated with lesion volume was lipid peroxidation, suggesting that oxidative stress contributes to the extent of the brain damage after a stroke. This may suggest that the role of 3HANA in stroke is related to its autoxidation and the generation of reactive oxygen species. Increased concentrations of KYNA were observed in patients who died within three weeks of having a stroke. These high levels of KYNA may have been produced following excitotoxicity and the generation of free radicals, and may cause excessive NMDA receptor blockade or reduced mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis, thus contributing to cell death. The kynurenine pathway was activated and showed abnormal metabolism in all the patient groups, suggesting a potential role for these metabolites in neuronal dysfunction in HD, chronic brain injury and acute stroke. Further work is required to elucidate the role of tryptophan metabolites and whether they may have a direct contribution to neuronal damage in neurological disorders.

Abstract:

Kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO) is a flavoprotein which has been implicated in Huntington’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and acute pancreatitis. Recently there has been important research published about this enzyme including the structure of a truncated Saccharomyces cerevisiae KMO enzyme and KMO inhibition studies in animal models of disease. In previous work from this research group the complete Pseudomonas fluorescens KMO enzyme has been successfully crystallised both with and without the substrate, L-kynurenine, from which significant insights were gained into function and the potential role of domain movement. To examine substrate binding in KMO and to consolidate previous structural studies, key residues in the active site have been investigated using site directed mutagenesis, crystallography and kinetic analysis using steady-state techniques. This analysis has identified the interactions between the enzyme and the substrate and provides a basis for inhibitor design. The residues implicated in substrate binding are N369, Y404 and R84. For N369 and Y404, minor changes to the amino acid in the mutations N369S and Y404F were shown to cause a decrease in binding affinity of the substrate but the enzyme remained active. For the mutations Y404A and R84K enzyme activity was significantly affected. Crystal structures of N369S, Y404F and R84K were also obtained. Another residue in the active site studied was H320 which is the only amino acid to differ in the active sites of the human and Pseudomonas fluorescens enzymes. This residue was therefore of interest to determine whether the bacterial enzyme used in this work is likely to be a good model for the human enzyme, which has not yet been successfully isolated in significant quantities for in vitro research. Modifying this residue to obtain H320F KMO revealed that this residue does not have a significant role in substrate binding. Potent inhibitor molecules have been studied with this enzyme and shown in kinetic assays to have nanomolar Ki values. These inhibitors are the most potent inhibitors studied with Pseudomonas fluorescens to date and continue previous inhibitor studies carried out with this enzyme. This group of inhibitors contain different substituents in the part of the molecule shown to bind closest to the C-terminal domain of the protein. These novel inhibitors do not allow the flavin to be reduced by NADPH (which results in unwanted peroxide production) unlike a number of previously studied molecules and therefore have the potential to be clinically useful. This research therefore answers many questions about this enzyme, in particular about the role of particular residues in the active site, substrate recognition and inhibition of this important drug target.

Abstract:

A major product of HIV-infected and cytokine-stimulated monocytic-lineage cells is quinolinic acid (QUIN), a neurotoxic metabolite of the kynurenine pathway (KP) of L-tryptophan (L-Trp) metabolism. Despite the large number of neurotoxins found in HIV patients with AIDS Dementia Complex (ADC), only QUIN correlates with both the presence and severity of ADC. With treatment, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) QUIN concentrations decrease proportionate to the degree of clinical and neuropsychological improvement. As endothelial cells (EC) of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) are the first brain-associated cell that a bloodborne pathogen would encounter, this project examined the BBB response to KP metabolites, as these are implicated in damage of the CNS associated with ADC. Using RT-PCR and HPLC/gas chromatographymass spectrometry (GC-MS), I found that cultured primary human BBB EC and pericytes constitutively expressed the KP. EC synthesised kynurenic acid (KA) constitutively, and after immune activation, kynurenine (KYN). Pericytes produced small amounts of picolinic acid and after immune activation, KYN. An SV40-transformed BBB EC showed no KP expression. By contrast, human umbilical vein EC only expressed low levels of KA after immune activation, however human dermal microvascular EC showed a similar constitutive and inducible KP to that in BBB EC. As T cells are central to primary HIV infection, I also examined KP expression in two CD4+ and one CD4- cell lines, but none showed either constitutive or inducible KP expression. I next examined how QUIN might interact with BBB EC. There was no binding of 3H-QUIN to cultured primary human BBB EC, however a biologically relevant concentration of QUIN induced changes in gene expression which adversely affected EC function, possibly mediated by lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress. The upregulated genes were of the heat shock protein family, and the downregulated genes were associated with regulation of cell adhesion, tight junction and cytoskeletal stability, metalloproteinase (MMP) regulation, apoptosis and G protein signaling. Immunofluorescence showed that QUIN induced morphological changes in BBB EC consistent with the changes in gene expression. Gelatin zymography showed that this was not mediated by MMPs, as constitutive MMP expression was unchanged. These data provide strong evidence for QUIN directly damaging the BBB in the context of HIV infection.

Abstract:

The kynurenine pathway produces NAD+ from L-tryptophan. Metabolites known as the kynurenines are produced within the pathway. The effects of the kynurenines have been associated with a number of diseases including cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and acute pancreatitis. Kynurenine monooxygenase (KMO) is an enzyme that catalyses the conversion of L-kynurenine to 3-hydroxy-L-kynurenine, the downstream product of which is the neurotoxic quinolinic acid. L-kynurenine is positioned at a branching point within the pathway. Metabolism via KMO leads to quinolinic acid production whereas conversion via kynurenine aminotransferase (KAT) produces the neuroprotective kynurenic acid. Inhibition of KMO leads to an increase in kynurenic acid concentration. This has also been shown to ameliorate the symptoms of neurological diseases in a number of animal models as well as to protect against multiple organ dysfunction caused by acute pancreatitis in rodent models. These findings present KMO as a promising drug target. Due to the hydrophobic nature of human KMO (hKMO) it has been necessary to utilise other forms of KMO as models. Past studies have produced crystal structures of a truncated Saccharomyces cerevisiae KMO and of Pseudomonas fluorescens KMO (PfKMO). Previous work in this research group has resulted in the structure of variants of PfKMO bound to either inhibitor molecules or substrate. These structures identified residues involved in substrate binding and the presence of a highly mobile section of the C-terminus, giving rise to open and closed conformations. It was surmised the movement of the C-terminus was dependent upon the presence of substrate and an interactive network between the C-terminus and the rest of the protein. Using improved crystallising conditions high-resolution structures of PfKMO have been produced that allow for further study of residues involved in substrate binding and the interactive network within the C-terminus. The mutants R84K and Y404F showed severely decreased enzyme activity. Crystal structures of these proteins showed disrupted interactions between substrate and active site. These findings underline the importance of residues R84 and Y404 in substrate binding. An H320F mutation gives an analogous active site to hKMO. Crystallographic and kinetic study of this mutant proved very similar to PfKMO, supporting the use of PfKMO as a model for hKMO. Throughout the work each structure had a P21221 space group with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. The presence of an open and closed molecule within each structure, including substrate-free molecules refuted the connection between C-terminus and substrate. R386K and E372T mutations were separately introduced in order to interrupt the interactive network. The presence of both open and closed conformations in the structures of R386K and E372T refutes the necessity for the interactive network in C-terminus movement. The data analysed throughout the project suggest simple mobility and thermal motion as the cause of the movement of the C-terminus. This work, in conjunction with kinetic data from the thesis of Helen Bell, presents structural data to characterise the role of binding residues within the active site of KMO as well as the mechanistic role of the C-terminus. It also highlights the importance of certain binding residues and countered the previously held hypotheses surrounding the significance of the C-terminus. The mechanistic role of the C-terminus therefore remains unclear and requires further study.

Abstract:

Kynurenine 3-monooxygenase is a FAD-dependent aromatic hydroxylase (FAH) which is a widely suggested therapeutic target for controlling the balance of bioactive metabolite levels produced by the mammalian kynurenine pathway (KP). Prior to starting this work no structural information was known for the enzyme, with studies of the human form complicated by the presence of a C-terminal transmembrane helix. The bacterial Pseudomonas fluorescens enzyme (PfKMO) lacks the transmembrane region and has been previously characterised by Crozier-Reabe and Moran [1, 2]. Therefore PfKMO, which shares 32 % sequence identity with the human enzyme, was selected as a target for structure solution. Initial substrate bound PfKMO crystals showed poor X-ray diffraction. Subsequent growth optimisation and the generation of a C252S/C461S PfKMO mutant (dm2) yielded crystals suitable for structure solution. Selenomethioninelabelled substrate bound dm2 crystals were used to solve the first structure to a resolution of 3.40 Å. With just one protein molecule per asymmetric unit, a high solvent content was responsible for the poor diffraction properties of this crystal form. The overall fold resembled that of other FAH enzymes with a Rossmann-fold based FADbinding domain above a buried substrate binding pocket. Interestingly PfKMO possesses an additional, novel C-terminal domain that caps the back of the substrate-binding pocket on the opposite side to the flavin. Residues proposed to be involved in substrate binding were identified and shown to be highly conserved among mammalian KMO sequences. Subsequently single crystals of substrate-free dm2 PfKMO were obtained and showed significantly stronger diffraction due to new lattice packing in an orthorhombic space group bearing four molecules per asymmetric unit. The structure was solved to a resolution of 2.26 Å and revealed a clear conformational change of the novel C-terminal domain. This movement opens a potential route of substrate/product exchange between bulk solvent and the active site. The investigation of a set of C-terminal mutants further explored the relevance and mechanics of the conformational change. In addition the presence of chloride ions in the substrate-free crystal growth solution caused a small number of localised subtle alterations to the structure, with a potential chloride binding site identified adjacent to the flavin cofactor. This may have relevance for the observed inhibition of PfKMO activity by monovalent anions – a feature widely common to FAH enzymes [3]. The first discovered KMO inhibitors were analogues of the substrate L-Kyn, however one such compound (m-NBA) was recently shown to instigate uncoupled NADPH oxidation leading to the release of cytotoxic hydrogen peroxide [1]. A set of substrate analogues were tested and characterised for inhibition of PfKMO. The picture was shown to be complex as some substrate analogues completely inhibited the enzyme whilst the binding of some still stimulated low-levels of NADPH oxidation. Crystallographic studies with m-NBA and 3,4-dichlorobenzoylalanine (3,4-CBA) bound revealed indistinguishable structures from that of substrate-bound PfKMO. These studies suggest that the analogue 3,4CBA is a potent PfKMO inhibitor whose therapeutic potential may be re-visited. The previous most potent KMO inhibitor whose structure was not analogous to the substrate was Ro 61-8048 [4], which unfortunately did not pass pre-clinical safety tests. A novel series of 1,2,4-oxadiazole amides based on the structure of Ro 61-8048 was created by Gavin Milne (PhD, University of St Andrews) and tested on PfKMO. Rounds of refinement led to the discovery and refinement of low nanomolar competitive inhibitors of the bacterial enzyme. PfKMO was co-crystallised with each of the four most potent compounds forming a third different lattice arrangement, which yielded structures to resolutions of 2.15-2.40 Å. The structures displayed conformational changes resembling the substrate-free fold possibly caused by displacement of a crucial substrate-binding residue, R84. Overall the wealth of structural data obtained may be transferable to predictions about the structural features of human KMO and to the rational design of therapeutic inhibitors. The potent novel inhibitors tested may additionally present a new exciting development for the therapeutic inhibition of human KMO.
