| Abstract
|
:
|
Proceedings of the June 1995 meeting. Four lectures deal with links between tryptophan, serotonin, and the brain, and clinical applications of tryptophan biology. The remaining 121 papers are organized in nine sections on neurobiology and neurochemistry of tryptophan and serotonin; immunosystem and tryptophan catabolism; kynurenines and derivatives; indole derivatives as antioxidants; metabolic and clinical aspects; enzymes in tryptophan degradation; tryptophan, eating behavior, and nutritional aspects; tryptophan in peptides and proteins; and chemical and analytical aspects of tryptophan and related compounds
