Acute exercise increases systemic kynurenine pathway metabolites and activates the AHR in human PBMCs
2024-01-20
Abstract excerpt
The kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation generates several metabolites such as kynurenine or kynurenic acid that serve as endogenous ligands of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). Due to its distinct biological roles particularly modulating the immune system, the AHR is a current therapeutic target across different inflammation-related diseases. Here, we show an exercise-induced increase in AHR ligand ava...
