Biochemical studies on the epileptic cerebral cortex [PDF]
Within the range of our investigations the most important biochemical characteristics in the brain of idiopathic epileptic patients seem to be defect in the production of and the attendant decrease in free amino acids of the brain.

A pilot study comparing the metabolic profiles of elite-level athletes from different sporting disciplines [PDF]
Background: The outstanding performance of an elite athlete might be associated with changes in their blood metabolic profile. The aims of this study were to compare the blood metabolic profiles between moderate- and high-power and endurance elite ...

Inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier protects from excitotoxic neuronal death. [PDF]
Glutamate is the dominant excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, but under conditions of metabolic stress it can accumulate to excitotoxic levels.

Anti-ferroptotic mechanism of IL4i1-mediated amino acid metabolism
Interleukin-4-induced-1 (IL4i1) is an amino acid oxidase secreted from immune cells. Recent observations have suggested that IL4i1 is pro-tumorigenic via unknown mechanisms.

Research progress on branched-chain amino acid aminotransferases
Branched-chain amino acid aminotransferases, widely present in natural organisms, catalyze bidirectional amino transfer between branched-chain amino acids and branched-chain α-ketoacids in cells.

Differential diagnosis of (inherited) amino acid metabolism or transport disorders [PDF]
__Abstract__ Disorders of amino acid metabolism or transport are most clearly expressed in urine. Nevertheless the interpretation of abnormalities in urinary amino acid excretion remains difficult. An increase or decrease of almost every amino acid in
