Xanthurenic acid is a metabolite of L-tryptophannicotinic acid ribonucleotide biosynthesis. The excretion of xanthurenic acid from urine 24 h after ingestion of 5 g L-tryptophan is increased in depressive patients, and 17-hydroxycorticosteroids are considered of primary importance to this disorder.

Xanthurenic acid (XA) is a secondary product of the biosynthesis of nicotinamide from L-tryptophan. Disturbances in this pathway have been observed in depression. An enhanced glucocorticoid secretion is considered to induce this pathway. This could result in reduced levels of L-tryptophan (L-TRP) in
