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.

Pregnancy: The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In order to approach the effect of preeclampsia in the mother on neonatal protein turnover, we studied the leucine turnover in preterm infants soon after birth and again after 7 days."5.31Effect of preeclampsia in the mother on the leucine metabolism in the newborn infant. ( Lotgering, FK; Saenz De Pipaón Marcos, M; Sauer, PJ; Van Beek, RH; Wattimena, DJ, 2002)
" In eight chronically prepared fetal lambs, we compared leucine kinetics (reciprocal pool model) during control conditions with measurements made during maternal hypoxia, a condition that limits fetal oxygen availability."3.70Ovine fetal leucine kinetics and protein metabolism during decreased oxygen availability. ( Milley, JR, 1998)
"We measured leucine flux rates during infusions of L-[1-14C]- and L-[1-1C]leucine in fetal sheep exposed to maternal insulin-induced hypoglycemia over the last 8 wk (40%) of gestation to determine effects of chronic glucose deficiency and hypoglycemia on fetal leucine metabolism."3.69Leucine metabolism in chronically hypoglycemic hypoinsulinemic growth-restricted fetal sheep. ( Carver, TD; Fennessey, PV; Hay, WW; Pike, AW; Quick, AA; Teng, CC, 1997)
" Starvation of the mother for days 18-20 did not alter CO2 evolution from alpha-ketoisocaproic acid in fetal brain slices but significantly diminished the incorporation of the branched-chain keto acids into leucine."3.66Fetal fuels VI. Metabolism of alpha-ketoisocaproic acid in fetal rat brain. ( Koehler, RA; Shambaugh, GE, 1983)
"Pregnancy is characterized by a rapid accumulation of lipid stores during the first half of gestation and a utilization of these stores during the latter half of gestation."2.37Ketone body metabolism in the mother and fetus. ( Shambaugh, GE, 1985)
"In order to approach the effect of preeclampsia in the mother on neonatal protein turnover, we studied the leucine turnover in preterm infants soon after birth and again after 7 days."1.31Effect of preeclampsia in the mother on the leucine metabolism in the newborn infant.
