Taurine is a fundamental mediator of homeostasis that exerts multiple roles to confer
protection against oxidant stress. The development of hypertension, muscle/neuro …

Taurine is a naturally occurring sulfur-containing amino acid that is found abundantly in
excitatory tissues, such as the heart, brain, retina and skeletal muscles. Taurine was first …

Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid and known as semi-essential in mammals and is
produced chiefly by the liver and kidney. It presents in different organs, including retina …

Taurine is an organic osmolyte involved in cell volume regulation, and provides a substrate
for the formation of bile salts. It plays a role in the modulation of intracellular free calcium …

Taurine is often referred to as a semi‐essential amino acid as newborn mammals have a
limited ability to synthesize taurine and have to rely on dietary supply. Taurine is not thought …

Taurine is a non-protein amino acid that is expressed in the majority of animal tissues. With
its unique sulfonic acid makeup, taurine influences cellular functions, including …

Taurine (aminoethane sulfonic acid) is an ubiquitous compound, found in very high
concentrations in heart and muscle. Although taurine is classified as an amino acid, it does …

Taurine is a nonproteinogenic ß‐aminosulfonic acid. Important dietary sources of taurine are
fish and seafood. Taurine interacts with ion channels, stabilizes membranes, and regulates …

Ammonia is an important environmental stress factor in aquaculture. Long-term ammonia
stress could affect the normal growth, and also increase the risk for the occurrence of various …

The sulfur-containing β-amino acid, taurine, is the most abundant free amino acid in cardiac
and skeletal muscle. Although its physiological function has not been established, it is …
