    Is excitotoxicity essentially mean high anxiety levels?

    In the model of GR resistance and low TDO, the body has more tryptophan reserve for serotonin and also for IDO(as a compensating mechanism?). What I mean is, what if a person has got high levels of Kynurenine pathway metabolites such as Kynurenic acid and quinolonic acid, what would be the final...
