Kynurenic acid (KYNA) and quinolinic acid (QUIN) are metabolites formed in the degradation of tryptophan (Trp). QUIN is a selective NMDA receptor antagonist and may exert neurotoxic effects, whereas KYNA is an agonist of glutamatergic and cholinergic receptors and presents antioxidant properties. KYNA/QUIN ratio is decreased in several central nervous system disorders, but the mechanisms involved are not well elucidated. In the present study, we try to determine the neuroprotective capacity of KYNA on the QUIN effects in redox homeo
