Abstract: Summary Background Neuroinflammatory diseases such as encephalitis, meningitis, multiple sclerosis and other neurological diseases with inflammatory components, have demonstrated a need for diagnostic biomarkers to define treatable and reversible neuroinflammation. The development and clinical validation… read more here.

Abstract: Perinatal depression (PND) affects 15% of mothers. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are currently the first-line of treatment for PND but are not always efficacious. Previously, we found significant reductions in plasma tryptophan concentrations and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0192169
Abstract: Objective Obesity is associated with increased inflammation and insulin resistance. In conditions with chronic immune activation, low plasma vitamin B6-levels are described, as well as an increased kynurenine:tryptophan-ratio (KTR). We investigated circulating tryptophan, kynurenine and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/nu13041366
Abstract: Diet-induced obesity (DIO) reduces the orosensory perception of lipids in rodents and in some humans. Although bariatric surgery partially corrects this alteration, underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. To explore whether metabolic changes might explain this… read more here.
