Aromatic Amino Acids (Aromatic Amino Acid)

06/01/2007 - "Aromatic amino acid metabolism during liver failure."
03/01/2004 - "In many cases of liver failure, the serum BCAAs/aromatic amino acids ratio (Fisher's ratio) decreases, and BCAAs have been administered to patients with liver failure to correct this ratio. "
09/01/1987 - "The effects of branched chain amino acid (BCAA)-enriched diets (fed for 7 days) on encephalopathy, plasma amino acid concentrations, aromatic amino acid turnover, and protein synthesis rates were determined in eight patients with alcoholic liver failure. "
01/01/2009 - "Albumin dialysis results in a significant decrease in circulating phenolic aromatic amino acids and improvement of hepatic encephalopathy in patients with severe liver failure."
07/01/1986 - "The ameliorating effects of an enteral nutrient for liver failure (SF-1008C), which is enriched with branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) and includes few aromatic amino acids (AAA), were investigated. "

05/01/2014 - "Although 2 earlier studies reported that aromatic amino acid (AAA) supplementation of children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) improved whole-body protein anabolism during the early postadmission (maintenance) phase of rehabilitation, it is not known whether this positive effect was maintained during the catch-up growth and recovery phases of treatment. "
05/01/2014 - "Dietary supplementation with aromatic amino acids increases protein synthesis in children with severe acute malnutrition."
10/01/2010 - "The requirement for aromatic amino acids during the rapid catch-up in weight phase of recovery from severe childhood undernutrition (SCU) is not clearly established. "
11/01/2004 - "These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that the blunting of the protein catabolic response to infection in children with edematous malnutrition syndrome is due to limited availability of aromatic amino acids."
07/01/2007 - "The precise mechanisms by which melanin content is reduced, and the role of aromatic amino acid availability in hair colour change and other features of childhood malnutrition remain to be explored."

03/01/2008 - "In double blind, cross over, placebo controlled trials, administration of droxidopa, a synthetic amino acid that is decarboxylated to norepinephrine by the enzyme L: -aromatic amino acid decarboxylase increases standing blood pressure, ameliorates symptoms of orthostatic hypotension and improves standing ability in patients with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension due to degenerative autonomic disorders. "

10/01/1996 - "The hallmarks of protein and amino acid metabolism in liver disease are lowered concentrations of circulating branched-chain and increased concentrations of circulating aromatic amino acids with concomitantly altered amino acid kinetics. "
03/01/1985 - "The branch chain to aromatic amino acid ratio is depressed in patients with advanced liver disease. "
01/01/1982 - "Aromatic amino acids released from muscle in increased amounts accumulate in the circulation of patients with chronic liver disease because of their decreased hepatic metabolism. "
01/01/1982 - "[Abnormal amino acid metabolism in serious liver diseases: branched chain amino acid and aromatic amino acid metabolism]."
10/01/1988 - "The characteristic amino acid changes of chronic liver disease (decreased branched-chain and elevated aromatic amino acids) are reproduced in portacaval shunt rats, but not in portacaval transposition. "

05/01/2010 - "cenocepacia K56-2 pbr mutant exhibited a pleiotropic phenotype, including impaired survival to oxidative and osmotic stress, aromatic amino acid and prolonged nutrient starvation periods. "
12/01/2006 - "The reason for this difference is interpreted in terms of starvation for aromatic amino acids under carbon-limitation which is relieved under phosphate-limitation due to an upregulation of aroK and aroA."
06/01/1979 - "Starvation of cells of Escherichia coli K-12 for the aromatic amino acids results in an increased rate of synthesis of shikimate kinase activity. "
01/15/1986 - "The BCH-insensitive component of transport was Na+-independent and facilitated non-concentrative transport of the aromatic amino acids; it was unaffected by culture of liver cells for 24 h, by 48 h starvation, dexamethasone phosphate or glucagon. "
03/01/1998 - "We have tested the response of the Trp pathway enzymes and three other amino acid biosynthetic enzymes to starvation for aromatic amino acids, branched-chain amino acids, or methionine. "
