Eosinophilia–myalgia syndrome is a rare, sometimes fatal neurological condition linked to the ingestion of the dietary supplement L-tryptophan. [1] [2] The risk of developing EMS increases with larger doses of tryptophan and increasing age. [3]
Tryptophan ball and stick model spinning. Tryptophan (symbol Trp or W) [3] is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.Tryptophan contains an α-amino group, an α-carboxylic acid group, and a side chain indole, making it a polar molecule with a non-polar aromatic beta carbon substituent.

1-Methyltryptophan is a chemical compound that is an inhibitor of the tryptophan catabolic enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO or INDO EC 1.13.11.52). [1] It is a chiral compound that can exist as both D - and L-enantiomers. The L-isomer (L-1MT) inhibits IDO weakly but also serves as an enzyme substrate.
Indoxyl sulfate, also known as 3-indoxylsulfate and 3-indoxylsulfuric acid, is a metabolite of dietary L-tryptophan that acts as a cardiotoxin and uremic toxin. [1] [2] [3] High concentrations of indoxyl sulfate in blood plasma are known to be associated with the development and progression of chronic kidney disease and vascular disease in humans.

α-Methyltryptophan (αMTP or α-MTP) is a synthetic tryptamine derivative, an artificial amino acid, and a prodrug of α-methylserotonin (αMS). [1] [2] [3] It is the α-methylated derivative of tryptophan, while αMS is the α-methylated analogue of serotonin.
