KMO Antibody

1. There is the association between the rs1053230 polymorphism and depression. PMID: 28139632
2. results show the incidence of Postpartum Depression in the Chinese population to be 7.3%, with PDS characterized by increased serum 3-HydroxyKinurenine concentration and 3-HK/Kynurenine ratio, versus matched postpartum women without PDS. Furthermore, polymorphisms of Kynurenine Monooxygenase rs1053230 are significantly associated with the incidence of PDS. PMID: 28319697
3. Our data establish the candidacy of KMO as a causal factor for changes in the kidney leading to proteinuria and indicate a functional role for KMO and metabolites of the tryptophan pathway in podocytes PMID: 27020856
4. A comprehensive review of the molecular properties of KMO, including its kinetics, reaction mechanism, and inhibitor structure-activity relationship (SAR), is not currently available and, thus, is our focus here PMID: 26589832
5. SiRNA knockdown of the pathway components Kynurenine 3-monooxygenase and quinolinate phosphoribosyl transferase caused cells to revert to a state of susceptibility to 3HK-mediated apoptosis. PMID: 27077813
6. These results suggest that KMO exhibits tumor-promoting effects towards hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and it may serve as a novel prognostic marker in HCC. PMID: 26099564
7. Results suggest that KMO variation influences a range of cognitive domains known to predict functional outcome in schizophrenia PMID: 25464917
8. Two KMO SNPs were observed more often in schizophrenia patient group compared with healthy controls. PMID: 25715464
9. findings from five independent cohorts suggest that genetic variation in KMO influences the risk for psychotic features in mania of bipolar disorder patients. PMID: 23459468
10. Study reporting on the first successful bacterial (Escherichia coli) expression of active FLAGtrade mark-tagged human KMO enzyme expressed in the soluble fraction and progress towards its purification. PMID: 24316190
11. analyzed association between KMO gene polymorphisms and CSF concentrations of kynurenic acid in patients with schizophrenia and controls. results suggest that the nonsynonymous KMO SNP rs1053230 influences CSF concentrations of KYNA. PMID: 21693093
12. significant and correlated reduction in gene expression and enzyme activity in the frontal eye field in schizophrenia patients; rs2275163 has modest effects on predictive pursuit and visuospatial working memory endophenotypes PMID: 21727251
13. The present analysis of the combined Scandinavian sample did not reveal any allele frequency difference between patients and healthy controls PMID: 21030213
14. the function KMO AND indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase may change from a role in immunosuppression at the maternal-fetal interface in early pregnancy, to one associated with regulation of fetoplacental blood flow or placental metabolism in late gestation PMID: 15950064
15. Results suggest that kynurenine 3-monooxygenase is unlikely to be related to the development of schizophrenia in Japanese. PMID: 16716206
