Alternatively, insulin resistance might promote aminoacidaemia by increasing the protein degradation that insulin normally suppresses, and/or by eliciting an impairment of efficient BCAA oxidative metabolism in some tissues. Whether and how impaired BCAA metabolism might occur in obesity is discussed in ...
aminoacidopathies. Out of 91 treatable IEM, thirteen disorders are amino acid related. Aminoacidopathies can be detected by chromatography and mass spectrometry based analytical techniques (e.g., HPLC, GC–MS, LC–MS/MS) for amino acid level changes, and through genetic assays (e.g., PCR...
endogenous metal chelator [59]. Quinolinic acid induced expression of the 2 non-mitochondrial heat shock protein reporters. Therefore, we performed lifespan experiments adding 1 mM picolinic acid or 1 mM quinolinic acid to the culture medium (Additional file6: Table S3). Picolinic acid addition ...
2.2Amino acid production processes Amino acidsare at the present produced through three different routes, namely, extraction from protein-hydrolysates, chemical synthesis and microbial processes (enzymatic synthesis and fermentation). InTable 1, the differentamino acidsproduction methods are compared and in...
