Kynurenic acid
Kynurenic acid is an endogenous tryptophan metabolite acting as a triple receptor antagonist (NMDA, glutamate, α7nAChR) and a GPR35 agonist. This activity underpins its research applications in studying neuroprotection, seizure mechanisms, and metabolic diseases in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
