  3. Branched-Chain Amino Acid Metabolism in the Neonatal Pig

    Yonke, Joseph AllanVirginia Tech2022

    Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) are a group of essential amino acids consisting of leucine, isoleucine, and valine. Leucine, in particular, has signaling functions affecting protein and energy metabolism. Plasma leucine concentration is positively correlated with obesity and associated metabolic …

  5. Branched -Chain Amino Acid Nutrition of Grow-Finish Pigs and Young Chicks

    Parr, Theresa MargaretUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2015

    Three bioassays and two digestibility trials were conducted to determine the true digestible isoleucine (Ile) requirement for maximal weight gain and minimal plasma urea-nitrogen (PUN) of growing (25 to 45 kg) pigs. An Ile-deficient basal diet (0.30% true digestible Ile) utilizing red blood cells …

  8. Defective branched chain amino acid catabolism impairs exercise capacity and glucose homeostasis in the mouse

    Abell, Lauren E2019

    The branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) leucine, isoleucine and valine, play a central role in substrate metabolism, energetics, and protein synthesis. Although BCAA supplementation is widely used to improve exercise capacity and physical fitness, elevated levels of the BCAAs have been implicated in …
