Branch chain amino acid and melanogenesis [PDF]
Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology, 2011 Sir, the recent publication on branch chain amino acid (BCAA) and melanogenesis is very interesting. Cha et al. report that “a complex of BCAAs inhibited melanin production without changes in intercellular tyrosinase activity,” and they propose further that “the complex of BCAAs may be used in the development of safe potential depigmenting agents ...

Branched-Chain Amino Acids and Immunity , [PDF]
The Journal of Nutrition, 2006 Although there has been great interest in the effects of amino acids on immune function, little is known about the impact of changes in BCAA availability on the ability of the immune system to function. Human immune cells incorporate BCAA into proteins and are able to oxidize BCAA.

Metabolites, 2020 In hyperammonemic states, such as liver cirrhosis, urea cycle disorders, and strenuous exercise, the catabolism of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs; leucine, isoleucine, and valine) is activated and BCAA concentrations decrease.

Plasma Amino Acid Concentrations Predict Mortality in Patients with End-Stage Liver Disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The liver plays a key role in amino acid metabolism. In former studies, a ratio between branched-chain and aromatic amino acids (Fischer's ratio) revealed associations with hepatic encephalopathy.

Disorders of branched chain amino acid metabolism
Translational Science of Rare Diseases, 2016 The three essential branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), leucine, isoleucine and valine, share the first enzymatic steps in their metabolic pathways, including a reversible transamination followed by an irreversible oxidative decarboxylation to coenzyme-A derivatives.
