Alterations in cardiac energy metabolism contribute to the severity of heart failure. However,
the energy metabolic changes that occur in heart failure are complex and are dependent not …

The role of brown adipose tissue in the regulation of energy balance and maintenance of
body weight is well known in rodents. Recently, interest in this tissue has re-emerged due to …

Leucine, as an essential amino acid and activator of mTOR (mammalian target of
rapamycin), promotes protein synthesis and suppresses protein catabolism. However, the …

Elevations in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) in human obesity were first reported in
the 1960s. Such reports are of interest because of the emerging role of BCAAs as potential …

Macronutrients, such as protein or amino acid, not only supply calories but some
components may also play as signaling molecules to affect feeding behavior, energy …

Leucine is recognized as a nutrient signal; however, the long-term in vivo consequences of
leucine signaling and the role of branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism in this …

Moderate and chronic bouts of exercise may lead to positive metabolic, molecular, and
morphological adaptations, improving health. Although exercise training stimulates the …

In connection with the increasing interest in metabolic regulation of the immune response,
this review discusses current advances in understanding the role of leucine and leucine …
