Tryptophan metabolism in experimental porphyria
Although there seems to be no qualitative difference in the excretion of certain urinary metabolites of l-tryptophan between normal and porphyric rats, quantitative determination showed that there is a decrease in the level of excretion of l-kynurenine and 3-OH-kynurenine. At the same time, tryptoph...
