Description:Kynurenic acid is a metabolic product formed during the breakdown of the amino acid tryptophan. It acts as a neuromodulator in the brain by inhibiting the NMDA receptor, which is involved in nerve cell signaling. While its exact role is still being studied, it's believed to regulate neuronal excitability. Kynurenic acid has been linked to conditions like schizophrenia and epilepsy, though its precise contributions are not fully understood.
