Dietary Intake and Circulating Amino Acid Concentrations in Relation with Bone Metabolism Markers in Children Following Vegetarian and Omnivorous Diets

open access: yes, 2023
Scientific studies reported that most vegetarians meet the total protein requirements; however, little is known about their amino acid intakes. We aimed to assess dietary intake and serum amino acid levels in relation to bone metabolism markers in ...

A Facile Transformation of Amino acids into 1,4-dihydropyridines and their Crystallographic Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
A facile transformation of amino acids into substituted 1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-DHP) is reported. The natural amino acids were converted into gamma-amino beta-keto esters and used for the synthesis of substituted 1,4-dihydropyridines from the ...

The effect of L-Arg supplementation on L-Arg/NO metabolic and AMPK/ACC-1 signalling pathways in adipose cells (3T3 L1)

open access: yesAmino Acids
L-arginine (L-Arg) is metabolised in the cell to generate nitric oxide (NO) and citrulline via nitric oxide synthase (NOS). NO is an important cellular signalling molecule that regulates lipid and glucose metabolism.
