Oxoadipic acid is a metabolite of the essential amino acids tryptophan and lysine, playing an important role in the tryptophan metabolism and lysine degradation pathways[1-2]. Oxoadipic acid is elevated in responders to rheumatoid arthritis treatment and can serve as a biomarker in metabolomics prediction models[3-4].
