2-keto-4-methylvalerate and Alcoholic Cirrhosis

2-keto-4-methylvalerate has been researched along with Alcoholic Cirrhosis in 4 studies

alpha-ketoisocaproic acid: RN given refers to parent cpd
4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate : A 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid anion that is the conjugate base of 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid.
4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid : A 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid that is pentanoic acid (valeric acid) substituted with a keto group at C-2 and a methyl group at C-4. A metabolite that has been found to accumulate in maple syrup urine disease.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The enrichment of circulating KICA with [13C]KICA was similar in alcoholics and controls, indicating that a decreased bioavailability or an increased dilution of labeled KICA cannot account for the decreased exhalation of 13CO2."1.29Mitochondrial function reflected by the decarboxylation of [13C]ketoisocaproate is impaired in alcoholics.
