Brain Insulin Lowers Circulating BCAA Levels by Inducing Hepatic BCAA Catabolism [PDF]
Cell Metabolism, 2014 SummaryCirculating branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) levels are elevated in obesity/diabetes and are a sensitive predictor for type 2 diabetes. Here we show in rats that insulin dose-dependently lowers plasma BCAA levels through induction of hepatic ...

Plasma BCAA changes in Patients with NAFLD are Sex Dependent 1 [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2020 International audienceContext: Plasma branched chain amino acid (BCAA) concentrations correlate positively with body mass index (BMI), measures of insulin resistance (IR), and severity of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Elevated BCAA Suppresses the Development and Metastasis of Breast Cancer
Frontiers in Oncology, 2022 Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are the three essential amino acids including leucine, isoleucine, and valine. BCAA metabolism has been linked with the development of a variety of tumors.

A higher bacterial inward BCAA transport driven by Faecalibacterium prausnitzii is associated with lower serum levels of BCAA in early adolescents [PDF]
Molecular Medicine, 2021 Background Elevations of circulating branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) are observed in humans with obesity and metabolic comorbidities, such as insulin resistance.

Association of Genetically Predicted BCAA Levels with Muscle Fiber Size in Athletes Consuming Protein [PDF]
, 2022 Branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) levels are associated with skeletal muscle cross-sectional area (CSA). Serum BCAA levels are enhanced by whey protein supplementation (WPS), and evidence in clinical populations suggests an association of single ...

Exercise Promotes BCAA Catabolism: Effects of BCAA Supplementation on Skeletal Muscle during Exercise [PDF]
The Journal of Nutrition, 2004 Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are essential amino acids that can be oxidized in skeletal muscle. It is known that BCAA oxidation is promoted by exercise. The mechanism responsible for this phenomenon is attributed to activation of the branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase (BCKDH) complex, which catalyzes the second-step reaction of the BCAA
