Kynurenine (KYN) is transported across the BBB and metabolized by glial cells into KYNA and quinolinic acid (221, 222) ultimately resulting in excessive KYNA production
To examine whether morphine induces constipation in mice by inhibiting PVN Glu neuronal activity via MOR, we performed immunofluorescence staining in RV-tracing brain slices of normal mice revealed that EGFP + /MOR + co-labelled cells across several regions, including the PVN, parabrachial pigmented nucleus (PBP), inferior colliculus (IC), primary somatosensory cortex (S1), periaqueductal gray (PAG), locus coeruleus (LC), mesencephalic reticular formation, raphe magnus nucleus, retrorubral field, parasubthalamic nucleus, and dorsal raphe nucleus (Fig
In a randomized, placebo-controlled intervention study with more than 900 older participants experiencing psychological distress, daily supplementation with folic acid (400 g) and vitamin B 12 (100 g) for two years did not reduce the occurrence of symptoms of depression despite significantly improving blood folate, vitamin B 12 , and homocysteine levels compared to placebo (109)
