Tryptophan-Restriction Diets Help to Maintain L-Tryptophan Homeostasis in Tryptophan 2,3-Dioxygenase Knockout Mice

We hypothesized that the requirements of essential nutrients are dependent upon catabolic abilities. Mice lacking L-tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) are available. The body concentration of L-tryptophan (L-Trp) has been reported to be higher in TDO-deficient mice than in wild-type (WT) mice. We exam...
