alanine and Cushing's Syndrome

alanine has been researched along with Cushing's Syndrome in 6 studies

Alanine: A non-essential amino acid that occurs in high levels in its free state in plasma. It is produced from pyruvate by transamination. It is involved in sugar and acid metabolism, increases IMMUNITY, and provides energy for muscle tissue, BRAIN, and the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
alanine : An alpha-amino acid that consists of propionic acid bearing an amino substituent at position 2.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Plasma concentrations of glucagon, insulin, glucose, and individual plasma amino acids were measured in normal nonobese and obese subjects before and after 3 days of dexamethasone treatment (2 mg/day) and in patients with Cushing's syndrome."3.65Influence of glucocorticoids on glucagon secretion and plasma amino acid concentrations in man. ( Felig, P; Hendler, R; Wise, JK, 1973)
"Although the hypercortisolism-induced impairment of protein homeostasis is object of several studies, a detailed evaluation of the complete amino acid profile of patients with Cushing's syndrome (CS) has never been performed."1.31Evaluation of circulating levels and renal clearance of natural amino acids in patients with Cushing's disease. ( Alfieri, R; Colao, A; Faggiano, A; Filippella, M; Lombardi, G; Melis, D; Pivonello, R; Salvatore, F; Spagnuolo, G, 2002)
