Asparagine promotes cancer cell proliferation through use as an amino acid exchange factor. [PDF]
Cellular amino acid uptake is critical for mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) activation and cell proliferation. However, the regulation of amino acid uptake is not well-understood.

Impaired nutrient signaling and body weight control in a Na⁺ neutral amino acid cotransporter (Slc6a19)-deficient mouse [PDF]
Amino acid uptake in the intestine and kidney is mediated by a variety of amino acid transporters. To understand the role of epithelial neutral amino acid uptake in whole body homeostasis, we analyzed mice lacking the apical broad-spectrum neutral (0 ...

Amino Acids, Amino Acid Derivatives and Peptides as Antioxidants
[Excerpt] The biological concept of antioxidant refers to any compound that is able to delay or 5 prevent the oxidation of easily oxidizable substrates, such as DNA, proteins and 6 lipids. Antioxidants reduce oxidative stress and mutations in DNA as well as other 7 parameters associated with cell damage.
