Kynurenine Pathway Dysregulation Impairs Podocyte Morphology and Bioenergetics In Vitro and Leads to Glomerular Dysfunction
The enzymes of the kynurenine pathway participate in the catabolism of TRP, where they generate metabolites known as kynurenines, which are considered biologically active. Using a transgenic zebrafis....
