IDO1 and Behcet disease: Hence, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to comprehensively examine central and peripheral (free and total) TRP, the sum of CAAs and the TRP/CAAs ratio (index for the availability of TRP to the brain) along with indices of IDO, Kynurenine aminotransferase (KAT) and Kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO) enzyme activities, and the levels of downstream neurotoxic TRYCATs in both MDD and BD in CNS, serum and plasma.
