摘要: Kynurenic acid (KYNA) is an endogenous antagonist of ionotropic glutamate receptors and the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, showing anticonvulsant neuroprotective activity. In this study, presence KYNA in food honeybee products was investigated. found all 37 tested samples products. The highest concentration obtained from products’ samples, propolis (9.6 nmol/g), honey (1.0–4.8 nmol/g) bee pollen (3.4 nmol/g). A high detected fresh broccoli (2.2 potato (0.7 Only traces were some commercial baby administered intragastrically rats absorbed intestine into blood stream transported to liver kidney. conclusion, we provide evidence that a constituent it can be easily digestive system.
