Tyrosine may give rise to dopa via two distinct enzymatic means: tyrosinase or tyrosine hydroxylase.
High levels of DHPPA due to bacterial infection may deplete tyrosinase for the backup route.
Salicylates and phenols may also deplete/impair tyrosinase and back up route.

Lithium is concentrated in the thyroid and can inhibit iodine uptake. This is why it is important to monitor both the levels of iodine as well as lithium on essential mineral tests and supplement lithium only as needed for low values that may occur as a result of detoxification and excretion of mercury. Iodine is no longer included on the standard essential element test, and needs to be ordered as a separate test. As an alternative, a topical iodine test can be performed.

Tryptophan breakdown pathway is triggered by bacterial infection as well as interferon gamma
Tryptophan is an essential amino acid and the least abundant constituent of proteins. In parallel it represents a source for two important biochemical pathways: the generation of neurotransmitter 5hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) by the tetrahydrobiopterin-dependent tryptophan 5-hydroxylase, and the formation of kynurenine derivatives and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides initiated by the enzymes tryptophan pyrrolase (tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase, TDO) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO). Whereas TDO is located in the liver cells, IDO is expressed in a large variety of cells and is inducible by the cytokine interferon-gamma. Therefore, accelerated tryptophan degradation is
observed in diseases and disorders concomitant with cellular immune activation, e. g. infectious, autoimmune, and malignant diseases, as well as during pregnancy. According to the cytostatic and antiproliferative properties of tryptophandepletion on T lymphocytes, activated T-helper type 1 (Th-1) cells may down-regulate immune response via degradation of tryptophan. Especially in states of persistent immune activation availability of free serum tryptophan is diminished and as a consequence of reduced serotonin production, serotonergic functions may as well be affected. Accumulation of neuroactive kynurenine metabolites such as quinolinic acid may contribute to the development of neurologic/psychiatric disorders. Thus, IDO seems to represent a link between the immunological network and neuroendocrine functions with far reaching consequences in regard to the psychological status of patients. These observations provide a basis for the better understanding of mood disorder and related symptoms in chronic diseases.

Abnormalities in the kynurenine pathway may play a role in Huntington's disease (HD). In this study, tryptophan depletion and loading were used to investigate changes in blood kynurenine pathway metabolites, as well as markers of inflammation and oxidative stress in HD patients and healthy controls. Results showed that the kynurenine : tryptophan ratio was greater in HD than controls in the baseline state and after tryptophan depletion, indicating increased indoleamine dioxygenase activity in HD. Evidence for persistent inflammation in HD was provided by elevated baseline levels of C-reactive protein, neopterin and lipid peroxidation products compared with controls. The kynurenate : kynurenine ratio suggested lower kynurenine aminotransferase activity in patients and the higher levels of kynurenine in patients at baseline, after depletion and loading, do not result in any differences in kynurenic acid levels, providing no supportive evidence for a compensatory neuroprotective role for kynurenic acid. Quinolinic acid showed wide variations in blood levels. The lipid peroxidation data indicate a high level of oxidative stress in HD patients many years after disease onset. Levels of the free radical generators 3-hydroxykynurenine and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid were decreased in HD patients, and hence did not appear to contribute to the oxidative stress. It is concluded that patients with HD exhibit abnormal handling of tryptophan metabolism and increased oxidative stress, and that these factors could contribute to ongoing brain dysfunction.

Comparative effects of oxygen on indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase of the kynurenine pathway
Yuhong Danga, William E. Dalea and Olen R. Brown
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) reacts with either oxygen or superoxide and tryptophan (trp) or other indoleamines while tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) reacts with oxygen and is specific for trp. These enzymes catalyze the rate-limiting step in the kynurenine (KYN) pathway from trp to quinolinic acid (QA) with TDO in kidney and liver and IDO in many tissues, including brain where it is low but inducible. QA, which does not cross the blood-brain barrier, is an excitotoxin found in the CNS during various pathologies and is associated with convulsions. We proposed that HBO-induced convulsions result
from increased flux through the KYN pathway via oxygen stimulation of IDO. To test this, TDO and IDO of liver and brain, respectively, of Sprague Dawley rats were assayed with
oxygen from 0 to 6.2 atm HBO. TDO activity was appreciable at even 30 μM oxygen and rose steeply to a maximum at 40 μM. Conversely, IDO had almost no detectable activity at or below 100 μM oxygen and maximum activity was not reached until about 1150 μM. (Plasma contains about 215 μM oxygen and capillaries about 20 μM oxygen when rats breathe air.) KYN was 60% higher in brains of HBO-convulsed rats compared to rats breathing air. While the oxygen concentration inside cells of rats breathing air or HBO is not known precisely, it is clear that the rate-limiting, IDO-catalyzed step in the brain
KYN pathway (but not liver TDO) can be greatly accelerated in rats breathing HBO.
