3-Hydroksykynurenin
3-Hydroksykynurenin (3-OH-kynurenin) er et metabolitt i kynureninveien, som er involvert i metabolismen av aminosyren tryptofan. Det er et mellomprodukt som dannes under omdannelsen av tryptofan til andre forbindelser, inkludert det essensielle koenzymet NAD+ (nikotinamid adenin dinukleotid)....
Beskrivelse
Testing 3-Hydroxykynurenine levels can be beneficial for individuals at risk or suffering from conditions where oxidative stress is a significant factor. This includes neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, certain psychiatric disorders, and possibly some autoimmune and inflammatory conditions.
Dysregulated 3-Hydroxykynurenine levels, particularly elevated levels, can contribute to oxidative stress and cellular damage.
Symptoms and signs might include:
- Neurological Symptoms: Such as cognitive decline, memory issues, or motor coordination problems, often seen in neurodegenerative diseases.
- Psychiatric Symptoms: Mood disturbances, anxiety, or symptoms associated with psychiatric disorders.
- Oxidative Stress Indicators: General signs of oxidative stress, like fatigue, muscle weakness, or susceptibility to infections.
Several factors can impact 3-Hydroxykynurenine levels:
- Genetic Factors: Genetic variations can influence the enzymes involved in its synthesis.
- Diet and Nutrition: Dietary intake of tryptophan, the precursor to 3-Hydroxykynurenine, plays a role.
- Inflammation and Immune Response: Inflammatory processes can alter the kynurenine pathway.
- Oxidative Stress: Conditions that increase oxidative stress can affect its production and degradation.
- Disease States: Neurodegenerative diseases, psychiatric disorders, and other health conditions can impact its levels.
- Environmental Factors: Exposure to toxins or other environmental stressors might influence its metabolism.
Regulating 3-Hydroxykynurenine levels involves a combination of lifestyle, dietary, and sometimes medical interventions:
- Balanced Diet: Ensure adequate intake of nutrients, particularly those that support the tryptophan-kynurenine pathway.
- Manage Stress: Chronic stress can impact the pathway, so stress-reduction techniques can be beneficial.
- Regular Exercise: Physical activity can help in maintaining a healthy metabolic balance.
- Avoid Toxins: Minimize exposure to environmental toxins that could disrupt metabolic pathways.
- Monitor Health Conditions: Proper management of conditions like inflammation or immune disorders can help.

Hjemmetesten var enkel med tydelige instruksjoner å følge. Testresultatet var detaljert og klart presentert. Fikk også muligheten til å stille spørsmål om testresultatet.

Vi så på mange selskaper som tilbyr de samme tjenestene, men bestemte oss for å gå videre med GetTested på grunn av gode anbefalinger fra andre som har brukt dem. Prosessen har vært veldig enkel.

Det er andre leverandører der ute, jeg har prøvd tre. GetTested var den raskeste og kundeservicen var den beste, både veldig kompetente og trevlige.

Helt perfekt, resultatene kom etter noen dager, og etter mange besøk hos fastlegen, vet vi endelig hvorfor sønnen min har eksem – han er allergisk mot hvete. Tusen takk.
Svein Hansen
Jeg opplevde dem som profesjonelle og ventetiden for resultatene var ikke for lang. De var hjelpsomme med eventuelle etterfølgende spørsmål. Vil bruke dem igjen ved behov. Jeg anbefaler dem på det sterkeste.
