Branched‐Chain Amino and Keto Acids Reduce Hepatocyte Lipid Droplet Size and Number via Distinct Proteomic Pathways

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Branched‐chain amino acids (BCAA) and their corresponding keto acids (BCKA) have been associated with changes in hepatic lipid metabolism and the resulting alterations in intracellular triglyceride concentrations. In this study, we utilized a previously established hepatocyte model to investigate the impact of BCAA and BCKA supplementation on ...
