Activity of MMP1 and MMP13 and Amino Acid Metabolism in Patients with Alcoholic Liver Cirrhosis
BACKGROUND Alcoholic liver disease remains one of the most common causes of chronic liver disease worldwide. The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of metalloproteinases (MMP1 and MMP13) as diagnostic markers of alcoholic liver disease and to determine the changes in free amino acid profile in the patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty patients with al...
متن کاملRenal metabolism of amino acids: its role in interorgan amino acid exchange.
The kidneys play a role in the synthesis and interorgan exchange of several amino acids. The quantitative importance of renal amino acid metabolism in the body is not, however, clear. We review here the role of the kidney in the interorgan exchange of amino acids, with emphasis on quantitative aspects. We reviewed relevant literature by using a computerized literature search (PubMed) and checki...

15 صفحه اولBranched-chain amino acids increase arterial blood ammonia in spite of enhanced intrinsic muscle ammonia metabolism in patients with cirrhosis and healthy subjects.
Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) are used in attempts to reduce blood ammonia in patients with cirrhosis and intermittent hepatic encephalopathy based on the hypothesis that BCAA stimulate muscle ammonia detoxification. We studied the effects of an oral dose of BCAA on the skeletal muscle metabolism of ammonia and amino acids in 14 patients with cirrhosis and in 7 healthy subjects by combining...
