[The branched-chain amino acids].
Minerva gastroenterologica e dietologica, 2006Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA: leucine, isoleucine and valine) are not just structural constituents of proteins, but have ''pharmacologic'' properties, known for several years: BCAA are catabolized mainly in muscle; can be oxidized with energy production, being nitrogen donors for other amino acids; regulate protein synthesis and degradation ...

Branched-chain amino acids for hepatic encephalopathy
2003Hepatic encephalopathy may be caused by a decreased plasma ratio of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) to aromatic amino acids. Treatment with BCAA may therefore have a beneficial effect on patients with hepatic encephalopathy.To evaluate the beneficial and harmful effects of BCAA for patients with hepatic encephalopathy.We identified trials through The

Branched chain amino acids in heptatic encephalopathy
The American Journal of Surgery, 2002Early theories or hepatic encephalopathy focused on ammonia-driven disruption of the Krebs cycle and cellular energy production. The "false-neurotransmitter" theory directed attention toward the interactions of amino acids, metabolism, the blood-brain barrier and neurotransmission.

Brain metabolism of branched-chain amino acids
Glia, 1997The synthesis of brain glutamate requires an amino group donor that is efficiently transported into the brain and that is readily transaminated. The branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), particularly leucine, play this important role. The uptake of leucine across the blood-brain barrier is faster than any other amino acid.

[Branched chain amino acid diseases].
Acta medica portuguesa, 1999The authors present 19 cases of branched-chain AA catabolism disease: 9 Maple Syrup Urine Diseases, 6 Methylmalonic Acidemias, 2 Propionic Acidemias, 1 case of 3-OH-3-methylglutaryl-CoA-lyase deficiency and another of 2-methyl-ketoacetyl-CoA-thiolase deficiency. Fifteen are early neonatal forms and in 4 the onset occurred later. Fifteen patients (78.9%)
