The novel respiratory virus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), emerged during late 2019 and spread rapidly across the world. It is now recognised that the nervous system can be affected in COVID-19, with several studies reporting long-term cognitive problems in patients. The metabolic pathway of tryptophan degradation, known as the kynurenine pathway (KP), is significantly activated in patients with COVID-19. KP metabolites have roles in regulating both inflammatory/immune responses and neurological functions. In this review, we speculate on the effects of KP activation in patients with COVID-19, and how modulation of this pathway might impact inflammation and reduce neurological symptoms. The kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation is activated in patients with Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). The possible effects of kynurenine metabolites on inflammation and neurocognition in COVID-19 and the potential use of kynurenine 3-monooxygenase inhibitors for treatment are discussed.
