For example, in remitted depression cases with a history of suicidal ideation, reduced HRV (collected in a lab) and impulsivity significantly correlate to lower brain levels of tryptophan, which occurs in depression due to continuous low-level inflammation disrupting tryptophan metabolism via stimulation of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (a key kynurenine pathway enzyme) (Myint, 2012). This evidence concerns the gene IDO2 and depressive symptom measurement.
