TABLE 3.
Concentrations in nm/kg of other non-kynurenine Trp catabolites in caput epididymis extracts
For non-kynurenine Trp derivatives (namely indoxyl acetic acid (IAA), serotonin, and melatonin), mean concentrations are given in nmol/g. S.E. values (n = 3) are shown in italic type. Numbers with plus and minus symbols preceding indicate positive (+) or negative (−) -fold differences between WT and Ido1−/− animals.
IAA | Serotonin | Melatonin | |
---|---|---|---|
WT | |||
Mean | 133.75 | 1708.40 | 9.80 |
S.E. | 9.18 | 355.20 | 0.69 |
Ido1−/− | |||
Mean | 140.92 | 2382.83 | 11.07 |
S.E. | 16.90 | 641.70 | 0.53 |
Ido1−/− versus WT (-fold difference) | +1.05 | +1.39 | +1.13 |
